7.7.4 Information codes in transport state
The meter leaves the factory in transport state, i.e. the info codes are active in the display, but not in the meter's
data logger. This prevents ”info-event” from counting and saving non-relevant data in the info log during
transportation. The first time the meter registers flow after the installation, the info code automatically becomes
active.
7.8 Transport state
The meter is in transport state until it makes its first integration.
Transport state means:
- No info codes are saved in the meter’s logger and the info-event counter is not active.
- A power saving measuring sequence is used.
- ”SETUP loop” is accessible, which enables you to configure the meter before commissioning.
Note: In general ”SETUP loop” is available, it can however be limited by the selected country code.
Please be aware that the access to ”SETUP loop” will be blocked and the meter will leave transport mode if the
configuration in ”SETUP loop” is ended by the function “EndSetup”. When the meter has left transport state info
codes will be logged and the measuring sequence is changed to the one ordered for the meter (determined by the L-
code). The meter cannot revert to transport state, unless a total reset is made. The access to ”SETUP loop” can,
however, be opened again by separating calculator top and base, this means breaking the installation seal, see
paragraph 4.8.
Radio communication
On delivery the meter is in transport state and the meter’s radio communication is deactivated. The radio is
activated by the first integration the meter carries out. In transport state and after commissioning of the meter the
radio can be enabled either via ”SETUP loop” or by making a forced dial-up (both front keys are activated until
”CALL” is displayed). Enabling the radio does not cause the meter to leave transport state.
Test mode
Access to ”TEST loop” will disable radio communication. In ”TEST loop” an integration or a forced dial-up do not
enable the radio.
Note: In order to gain access to ”TEST loop” the test seal must be broken and the meter must subsequently be
reverified.
