Device Configuration

This window displays some basic information about the hardware, firmware, and configuration. The device that you are logged into determines the list of fields that appear in this window.

Field label

Description

System Title

The manufacturer’s unique value for the device.

Customer Serial Number

Selected by the utility at the time the device is ordered. If not designated, Itron inserts a unique value.

Electronic Serial Number (ESN)

The unique ISO object identification number assigned to the device by Itron.

Note: The last node of this series of digits is the Itron Manufacturing Serial Number.

Hardware ID

This series of numbers, designated by Itron, corresponds to the hardware and the type of firmware and device class of the device.

Firmware
Version

The version of register firmware currently on the device.

Instrument Model Type

The descriptive name of the hardware.

Service Type

The phase wire system type of the electricity circuit.

Service Sense Startup Delay (Seconds)

OpenWay Riva CENTRON (socket-base) polyphase meters automatically detect the service type. This field displays the number of seconds that the meter waits after it powers up before the meter scans to detect the service type.

Service Sense Setting

Auto Service Sense. The meter is set to automatically detect the service type.

Override. The meter is set to override auto service sensing and the service type has been manually selected. To perform this functions, go to Device Control Panel > Device Management > Device Operations > Select Service Type.

Rated Voltage

Selected by the utility at the time that the meter is ordered. Used as a reference voltage for voltage monitoring.

Rated Current

The maximum number of amps that this device is designed to handle.

LED Pulse Quantity

The quantity being measured to determine when the Light Emitting Diode (LED) pulses.

LED Pulse Weight

The amount of the above unit of measure that causes one pulse of the LED.

Power Outage Recognition Time (seconds)

The minimum number of seconds that the meter must power down in order for a power outage to be recognized.

Line
Frequency (Hz)

Selected by the utility at the time that the configuration file is created. This is the frequency for which the meter is calibrated. The crystal clock uses this to keep the correct time.

TOU Rates Currently
Configured

The number of Time of Use rates that are set up in the configuration file.

Service Switch Disabled

True. Service Switch is disabled and cannot be used to connect or disconnect the service.

False. Service Switch is enabled and can be used to connect or disconnect the service.

Reconfigure Result

The result of the most recent attempt to reconfigure this device. For more information, see View Configuration and Configuration History.

VA Calculation Type

The method by which apparent power is calculated. If the firmware in the meter does not support the calculation method specified in the configuration file, the field displays a mismatch message.

For information about these two calculation types, refer to the technical reference guide for the meter.

Demand
Configuration Disabled

Indicates whether this meter is set up to record energy only.

Yes. Demand quantities cannot be configured.

No. Demand quantities can be configured.

Legally
Relevant

Indicates whether the meter is set up to record legally relevant log information. The logs contain a summary of every legally relevant operation the meter has completed.

True. The device records legally relevant log information.

False. The device does not record legally relevant log information.

Sealed

Indicates whether or not the software seal is initiated. The software seal allows the software to initiate logging upon any reprogramming, resetting, or modification of billing registers. When sealed, the meter retains logs of all legally relevant parameters and actions performed.

True. Initiates logging of legally relevant parameters and actions.

False. Does not initiate logging of legally relevant parameters and actions.

Temperature Threshold

If the device is configured to monitor temperature minute to minute, this field displays the upper temperature threshold in degrees Celsius. If the device's temperature exceeds this temperature, an event is logged along with an optional alarm. When the temperature returns back below this value, another event and optional alarm are created.

Demand Reset Lockout (minutes)

The meter is configured to prevent all demand resets (system, FDM Tools, or mechanical button) before this length of time. Maximum 43,200 minutes (30 days).
