INTRODUCTION
The Badger Meter® Fluid Management System has been designed to control and monitor the consumption and inventory
balances of automotive fluid products with minimal installation and programming costs. Badger Meter has used its years of
expertise in the automated meter reading market to develop a modular control system using RF communications.
The high end system hardware consists of one Master Keypad and at least one Dispense Keypad as well as at least one radio
frequency (RF) electronic preset meter. The Master Keypad handles serial communication between the PC or a host server
(ERP system) and RF communication to the Dispense Keypads in the system. The system verifies the operator’s pin number
and validates the work order number, fluid quantities and the valid hose/meter.
The Master Keypad can communicate with up to 36 Dispense Keypads that can be positioned to support the workflow of the
facility the best way. Each Dispense Keypad can control up to 24 meters, for a total of 250 meters. The system supports up to
16 tanks and 16 fluids as a part of the system configuration. The system supports 250 unique operator IDs and pin numbers.
The system uses direct sequence spread spectrum RF technology to prevent communication problems with other equipment
in the facility. The RF system will look for a clear channel for transmission to insure that there is reliable communications at all
times. Communication distances are typically up to 100 meters, but can go up to 300 meters with unobstructed line-of-sight.
A remote antenna is available for situations where multiple buildings are involved in the installation.
The PC is used to configure the system, maintain system data and enter work orders. The service desk would use the PC to
enter a work order selecting the fluid and quantity required. The PC can stack as many work orders as required, limited only by
the disk storage space of the PC. There is no need to predetermine where the work is going to occur. This allows the flexibility
to service a vehicle at any open bay and select a meter when the work is going to be performed. When the work order is
going to be performed, the service personnel simply enters their pin number, work order and hose that is going to be used at
the Dispense Keypad.
There are a number of system utilization reports by user; fluid type, tank or meters available for the system’s management.
Optionally, the system can be connected with an ERP or DMS system via its RS232 interface. The real-time communication is
based on an open interface protocol (ASCII-code) and can be easily adapted to local conditions.
A unique, patented feature of the system is that the RF meter’s dispense trigger is locked until an authorization from the
keypad is received. After the dispense batch is completed, the user can top off if more fluid is required, the actual dispensed
amount is sent back to the keypad and the meter returns to the locked status. Additionally, the meter can be installed on
portable dolly systems offering control and monitoring of high-cost lubrication products.

Certication
• Contains FCC ID: S4GEM35XB
• Contains IC: 8735A-EM35XB
• FCC CERTIFIED, PART 15, SUB-PART C
• CE0681 EC-R&TTE Certified
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may
not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
TO SATISFY FCC RF EXPOSURE REQUIREMENTS FOR MOBILE TRANSMITTING DEVICES, A SEPARATION DISTANCE OF 20
CM OR MORE SHOULD BE MAINTAINED BETWEEN THE ANTENNA OF THIS DEVICE AND PERSONS DURING OPERATION.
TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE, OPERATIONS AT CLOSER DISTANCES THAN THIS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED.
WALLMOUNTING THE KEYPAD
The keypad should be mounted upright with the antenna pointing upward, near a 120V AC electrical socket, to a structurally
sound wall through the two holes on the top of the keypad casing. Height on the wall should be at eye level. Care should be
taken to avoid mounting behind any steel objects (tool storage cabinets and metal chain linked fences) that may block the RF
communication signal. Care should also be taken to avoid direct, significant heat sources.

Operation Modes
The configuration of the system is generally done by using the PC-based FMS Software. Only some special functions like the
operation modes are set at the Master Keypad.
RF System with PC Operation Mode
In this mode the PC is used to configure the system entities and install the network. The PC will be used to enter work orders
for processing and provide the queuing for future processing. When an operator processes a work order the PC will validate
the work order number and provide the fluid and amount to be dispensed. The results of the dispense will then be stored on
the PC.
RF System with Host Operation Mode
In this mode the PC is used to configure the system entities and install the network.
The host will be used to enter work orders for processing and provide the queuing for future processing. It will also store
the dispense results that have been completed. Dispense results can be additionally stored on the PC. When an operator
processes a work order the host will validate the work order number and provide the fluid and amount to be dispensed.
Standalone Mode
Work orders will not be validated; each entered work order will be accepted by the system. Data will be stored in the Master
Keypad’s memory.
OTE:N Each meter can only be associated to one Dispense Keypad. Only dispense and keypad supervisors can access each
of the Dispense Keypads.

MASTER KEYPAD
The Master Keypad acts as the communications director for the RF communications. It handles all communications between
the Dispense Keypads and the PC or Host. There are no operator menus associated with the Master Keypad—only supervisor
menus for setting up the system or creating reports.
The remainder of this document shows only the actual display, not the entire keypad.
To gain access to the supervisor menus, the supervisor PIN has to be entered. The default PIN is 0001 at initial power-up.

DISPENSE KEYPAD
The Dispense Keypads are responsible for the communication with the RF meters. The user starts a work order from the
keypad. After the dispense operation has been completed the keypad will receive the actual amount dispensed from the
meter. The Dispense Keypad then sends the dispense results to the Master Keypad.
The system can handle up to 36 Dispense Keypads. Up to 24 meters can be assigned to each keypad but each meter can only
be assigned to one Dispense Keypad.
