Read

Retrieve and view meter reading and tamper values from a meter or ERT module. This command is supported by all meter and ERT types.

You must have Read Endpoints permission to perform this function.

Read prompts you for inputs. Expand the device type you're working with for its input details. For descriptions of the read results, see Result and Success Fields.

50W (Wakeup)

Field

Description

Endpoint ID

Type or scan the ID number of the device you are working with. This number is assigned to each device at the time of manufacture. It uniquely distinguishes the device from all others.

Wake-up Tone

Select the wake-up tone used by the ERT to be read.

Read Range

The distance between the Itron Radio and the ERT. In most cases, use Default, which is the mobile device's normal range for communicating with the ERT. If Default does not work, switch to Far.

Default. The normal range for communicating with the ERT.
Close. A reduced power setting that keeps the wake-up tone close to the mobile device. This setting is useful in a warehouse or meter shop, where you are near many ERTs, but want to communicate with just the ERT you are working with, and not all ERTs within normal or default range.
Far. A greater communication distance that requires the licensing and use of a long-range radio carrier frequency.

100W

Tip: The View Event Log command is embedded within the Read command's workflow. When you view the Read command's Result and Success fields, open Tampers and Events and select View Event Log. Doing so causes the radio to re-engage with the ERT, and get the ERT's event log. The event log is viewable on the mobile device. When you are done viewing the event log, click Close to go back to the Read results.
