Case locking vise (though care must be taken to avoid damaging the plastic)
clip. 0 inserting the tool into the notches provided for this purpose and rotating it
clockwise(in this position, the tightening and loosening directions are reversed).
Proceed similarly to close the case; use the tool to tighten the ring until the clip locks.
A Do not tighten beyond the clip.
3. Position of the case
To optimize GSM communications, its position in the manhole must be carefully calculated; it
should generally be kept away from the manhole cover.
Mount the case vertically on its bracket, in accordance with the case's Top and Bottom.
AThe tests should be conducted in a real situation, with the manhole cover closed.
1) The indicator lights on the Remote Terminal Unit provide an initial diagnostic level.
2) SOFTOOLS, in Diagnostics mode, can be used to search for the best operator.
3) The user must find the best position for the case in the manhole using the "Reception
level test"function, via SOFTOOLS in Diagnostics mode, or using a mobile phone to send
a command no. 7 SMS (see § "Configuration and Diagnostics").

Data
I . Data processing
1.1. DI inputs
The Unit can be used to configure 4 Dls usable for "Signaling", "Standard Meter" or "In /
out meter" (for counting in both directions of water flow through a duct).
Q Signaling
Appearance and disappearance timers can be defined for each signaling event. A
change in signaling status can trigger the transmission of SMS messages.
Q Meters
For each DI, a "meter on DI" datum can be configured to represent a counted
number of pulses. This value is expressed in m3 (with 3 significant decimals). The weight
of each pulse can be configured (for example: 1 pulse=2.5 liters).
For an "In / out" meter, 2 data are configured: the first for pulse counting and the
second for the direction of water flow.
Standard meter In/out meter
Pulse count no.1 DI 1 DI 1:Outward direction DI 2=0
Pulse count no.2 DI 2 DI 1:Inward direction DI 2=1
Pulse count no.3 DI 3 DI 3:Outward direction DI 4=0
Pulse count no.4 DI 4 DI 3:Inward direction DI 4=1
1.2. Al inputs
2 Dls are available for connecting 2 "4-20 mA" sensors, type "CNPR 16-bar" or"Other".
The power supply to each sensor is provided by the Unit only during the time required to
acquire the measurement. The wait time between sensor power up and measurement
acquisition can be configured.
1.3. Calculated data
Based on the values of the "Meter" and "Al" data, the Unit generates configurable
calculated data:
Q Average flows
For each meter there is a numerical datum of the type "Average flow" expressed in
m3/h. The Unit periodically calculates and archives the value of this datum.
Q Nighttime flow
This datum is used to monitor flow during a user-configurable time period. The Unit
calculates the flow from the difference in indices read at the start and end of the time
period. This value, expressed in m3/h, is available at the time of the following
daily report.
RJ To calculate the "Nighttime flow", the "Calculate daily reports" function must previously
have been activated in the Unit's configuration.
Q Thresholds
4 thresholds can be defined to check Al measurements and/or monitor average
calculated flow rates from the meters.
Up to 2 time periods can be associated with each threshold, during which the limit
values are monitored; an upper or lower calculation logic can be applied to each
time period:
• upper logic: the datum is active if the measurement is higher than the threshold,
• lower logic:the datum is active if the measurement is lower than the threshold.
The overrun of one of these thresholds activates a "Threshold" datum that can in
turn trigger the transmission of an SMS to the SCADA Central Stations, along
with the transmission of warning messages to a mobile phone.
2
[7KROHNE -
Threshold appearance can be delayed by timer according to the monitored
datum's archiving period.
Example: in the following case, for a 15-minute flow rate archiving period,
threshold appearance is effective after one hour of consecutive
overrun.

J For a constantly valid time period, enter between 00:00 and 24:00. For an invalid
time period, enter a period end time identical to the start time (e.g.: 00:00 to
00:00 .
1.4. Diagnostic data
These data provide real time information concerning the Unit's operating status: i.e. the
GSM reception level, the total number of SMSs sent and the electrical capacity consumed
since the battery was fitted.
These Diagnostic data are regularly updated and sent to the SCADA Central Stations in
the current data status and report SMS messages.
2. Data archiving
2.1. Archiving periods
2 independent periods can be defined:
• one period for meters on DI and average flows.
• one period for Al measurements.
The archiving periods are user-configurable:
• Archiving every 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60 minutes(if 0, no archiving).
2.2. Synchronization of value archiving
The Unit synchronizes archiving operations by means of its internal clock.
Example: for a 15-minute period, archiving is performed at 2:15, 2:30, 2:45, etc.
(sub-multiples of the hour).
2.3. Archiving capacity
The Unit's total archiving capacity is of circa 2,000 values, representing an archiving period
of:
• 10 days for the archiving of"I count+flow every 15 minutes';
• or of 7 days for the archiving of"I count— 1 Al every 15 minutes"
3
*40HNE -
3. Daily reports
Daily report calculation is optional, a configuration parameter is used to validate this calculation.
Thus, every 24 hours, at the time of the configured report, the Unit calculates and archives the
report values of the "Meters on DI" and "Average flows", that is:
■ the meter's current index at the time of the report,
• the daily volume (i.e.the difference between the start and end indices of the previous 24 hour period),
• the minimum daily flow,
• the maximum daily flow,
• the nighttime flow.
4. Sending warning SMS messages to a mobile phone
2 data of the Signaling type can be configured as "Warnings".
On appearance of one of these data, the Unit triggers the transmission of a user-configurable
Warning SMS to notify an agent equipped with a mobile phone.
4
KROHNE -
5. Sending data to SCADA Central Stations
5.1. SMS messages sent to SCADA Central Stations
Each archived datum of the type "Meter on DI" and "Al" type constitutes a distinct SMS; for
example, the archiving of 4 meters and 2 measurements leads to the daily sending of at
least 6 SMS messages. The number of SMSs is dependent upon the type of data to
transmit. Thus, the device sends:
0 1 SMS for all current data statuses:
• Current values of all data (except for reports).
0 1 SMS per archived datum:
• 1 SMS for each "Meter on DI"datum containing
the archived index values and calculated average flows,
• ISMS for each "Al"datum containing the archived values.
0 1 SMS for all daily reports:
• Time-stamped values of all data, including those of the "Nighttime flow"
and diagnostic data.
Rj For safety reasons, it is possible to limit the number of SMS messages sent (between 0 and 100
SMS messages per day).
5.2. Triggering SCADA Central Station communications
This device transmits its current data statuses and archived data to the SCADA Central
Stations in the following cases:
Q Once a day, during its daily wake-up phase, it sends all archiving SMSs to the
SCADA Central Stations.
0 Immediately on change of a logical datum, the device sends a current data status
SMS, along with all the archiving SMSs to the SCADA Central Stations.
0 On memory overflow, the device immediately triggers the transmission of the SMS
messages. The memory capacity is of 15 SMS messages.
0 Periodically, once a week, during the synchronization of its clock with the GSM
network, the device transmits the current statuses of all his data to the SCADA
Central Station.
Rj In the event of transmission failure (no operator registration, subscription problem, etc.), the
device makes 4 additional communication attempts. By default, the time between each
attempt is of 15 minutes.
5.3. Specific aspects of SCADA Central Station communications
0 Weekly time synchronization:
Device clocks are synchronized with that of the GSM network; the time is automatically
synchronized for all Units each Sunday morning from 8:15am onwards.
Q Offsetting Unit wake-up time:
On a network of several dozen Remote Terminal Units, in order to optimize communications
with the SCADA Central Stations, we recommend configuring slightly offset daily wake-up
times for each Unit(for example: set a 5-minute difference for each group of 25 Units).
0 Unit autonomy monitoring:
On the SCADA Central Station, setting a "consumed electrical capacity" threshold
serves to ensure that each device has sufficient autonomy.
The threshold value that must not be exceeded is of:
• 6,500 for the "standard"battery(ref. 934),
• 15,000 for the "high-capacity"battery(ref. 933)

5.4. Manual configuration creation for SCADA Central Station
When the SCADA Central Station is unable to import the configuration, the SCADA Central
Station operator must manually create the configuration for the device.
0 Specific case of a Unit communicating via SOFBUS-SMS
The SOFBUS-SMS protocol does not allow the transmission of average flow data
or daily reports to the SCADA Central Stations.
Furthermore, this protocol involves a number of conversion rules for displaying
the values of numerical data on the SCADA Central Station:
• Counts are transmitted in liters. Depending on the configured pulse weight,
a conversion factor needs to be applied;e.g. for 1 pulse = 1 liter,
the conversion factor is 0.001 if the value is to be displayed in m3.
• Al measurements are transmitted with minimum and maximum values
ranging from 0 to 65535:scaling is therefore required in order to display the actual
value that varies, for example, from 0 to 16 bar for a CNPR sensor.
PJ The other data types do not require any form of conversion.

o Is the Unit running?
...to find out, place the key in front of the lock for 2 seconds:
• The 0 indicator light flashes -,'the Unit is running
• The 40 and indicator lights come on 4 the Unit is down.
Q Starting up the Unit:
• If the Unit is down, hold the key for 8 seconds, until the indicator lights®and
are flashing, to start the Unit, then release the key(all lights are extinguished).
Q Unit wake-up for communication tests
• Position the key in front of the lock printed on the case: The 0 indicator light comes
on, flashes, then stabilizes:the Unit is ready for communication tests.
Q GSM reception level:
• After Unit wake-up +several seconds(network registration time),
if the 0 and indicator lights fail to come on, the reception level is too low.
Q GSM communication diagnostics:
• During tests, the 0 indicator light flashes.
RJ After remaining idle for 5 minutes, the Unit automatically switches to "Standby"
mode (either in the absence of communications with SOFTOOLS, or in the absence of
user action): the 4 indicator lights are turned off.
46 Holding the key in place for 8 seconds "powers down"the Unit;
this action is necessary,for example, during transport.
