6 SENSUS PROTOCOL METER SUPPORT
The Sensus Protocol, as implemented within the Sensus ICE™ and OMNI T2 registers, the
Badger ADE register, and numerous compatibles, is fully supported by the EtherMeter.
Important Notes:
(1) Most Sensus-compatible registers do not provide the maximum resolution (digits) by default,
and therefore 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.
