Initializing, Connecting, and Programming the
Pit Module
This chapter provides the instructions to program and connect the pit module.
Requirements are based on the network system mode. The OpenWay Riva pit module's auto-
sensing technology eliminates the need to program the module at the time of installation for most
popular registers by automatically detecting the connected register type.
Start-up
The pit module automatically:
■
Detects the connected register type at the top of the hour, exits Factory Mode, and enters
Run Mode.
■
Detects an Itron OpenWay Riva Leak Sensor (OLS).
OpenWay Riva 500W ERT pit module programming is required to:
■
Change the operation mode
■
Enter a utility ID or lock type.
■
To enter an E-Coder 8-digit driver.
■
Commission security
Itron strongly recommends performing a Check ERT with a handheld computer running FDM to
verify that the pit module is operating correctly after installation. Performing a Check ERT will:
■
Initiate an immediate register read.
■
Verify communication with the OLS or remote shut-off valve.
■
Check for event or alarm flags.
Programming
Programming the pit module requires one of the following handheld computers running Field
Deployment Manager (FDM) or FDM Tools version 4.0 or later.
■
FC300SR handheld computer
■
Itron Mobile Radio (IMR) connected to a user-supplied computer or Bluetooth device
