6 SENSUS PROTOCOL METER SUPPORT
The Sensus Protocol, as implemented within the Sensus OMNI, iPERL, & ICE™ registers, the
Badger HRE & ADE registers, and numerous compatibles, is fully supported by the EtherMeter.
Important Notes:
(1) Sensus-compatible registers do not always provide the maximum resolution (digits) by default,
and therefore the register or meter may require factory pre-programming. See the Meter
Compatibility Matrix for configuration details.
(2) Wire color-coding for Sensus-compatibles varies among meter brands. See the Meter
Compatibility Matrix for details.
