Meter+™ Technology
Meter+™ Technology has been developed to allow the Transceiver (TR4-X)
model to connect to virtually all modern submeter outputs. These include a
variety of different pulse-out meters as well as encoded output meters.
Meter+™ Encoder technology supports Sensus, Neptune, Amco, Elster, and
GWF 3-wire protocols. Simply wire the meter and Transceiver with the proper
configuration, and it will automatically detect which protocol to use. The
Meter+™ Smart Pulse detection allows the Transceiver to detect, correct, and
report faulty (ghosting) reed switches.
