Revenue
A revenue meter provides, over a defined range of operating conditions, measurements that are
within international and national defined standards and industry-accepted accuracy limits.
It also provides protection against unauthorized alteration of these measured quantities. National
and utility-based standards regulate protection against unauthorized alteration of measured
quantities.
Revenue metering components
To meet government regulations and utility security requirements, the meter incorporates three
types of security systems:
•
Traditional anti-tamper mechanical seals on the meter. See your device installation guide.
•
Passcode entry to reset meter values, for example, Master reset.
•
Hardware locking mechanism that prevents modification of revenue quantities after they are
locked.
Revenue firmware security features
Your revenue meter has additional firmware security features:
•
Your firmware upgrades are recorded in your meter’s upgrade log. Contact Technical Support
for information on upgrade log retrieval.
•
When revenue-locked, you cannot perform resets, configure some revenue-specific
parameters, or upgrade your meter.
Protected features and settings
Your revenue meter has features and settings that cannot be changed while revenue-locked.
In order to prevent changes to revenue-related features, settings and meter data, you can apply
revenue-locking after all revenue-metering setup is complete. See the ION Device Template
Reference, available from www.usa.siemens.com/pds, for a complete listing of revenue-locked
features and settings.
