Chapter 6 Elster American and Itron Actaris Commercial Meter Installation 58 100G Datalogging Installation Guide - Direct Mount Removing the Index/ Index Assembly from the Meter Commercial 100G Datalogging Gas Endpoints can be mounted on Elster American Meters in various configurations. These instructions show metal mounting plates without tamper seal cups and plastic mounting plates with tamper seal cups to represent mounting plate options. Mounting plate with tamper seal cups Mounting plate without tamper seal cups Indexes may be mounted on the 100G Datalogging Commercial Elster American Gas Endpoint without mounting plates. Index covers may (or may not) have tamper seal cups (on the back of the cover) for added security. Index removal assumes the installer will remove any tamper seals or wires before continuing with these instructions. Note It may not be necessary to dismantle your commercial index assembly (index and cover). These instructions do not include index/cover assembly for those applications. Some diaphragm commercial meters do not require an index assembly mounting plate. Indexes can be mounted directly to the endpoint.
Removing the Index/ Index Assembly from the Meter 100G Datalogging Installation Guide - Direct Mount 59 To Remove the Index Assembly 1. Remove any tamper seals (1) (or wire seals) from the index cover and mounting plate screws (2). Set the index/cover assembly aside. You will re-install it later in these instructions. 2. Remove the index cover screws from the meter. Verify screws are 1/2" long and are not corroded. If the screws are the correct length and are not corroded, keep them to re-install the 100G Datalogging Gas Endpoint assembly later in this procedure. If the screws are damaged or not the correct length, discard. Note Properly dispose all unused screws, old index covers, gaskets, tamper seals, and other leftover materials. Do not leave materials on customer premises.

Follow the steps in this section to properly program the endpoint.
Programming the 100G Datalogging Commercial Gas Endpoint 100G Datalogging Installation Guide - Direct Mount 61 Take note of the index drive rate shown on the index. The endpoint is programmed based on the drive rate. Elster American commercial meter index drive rates may be 5-, 10- or 100 cubic feet. To Program the 100G Datalogging Commercial Gas Endpoint 1. Program the index drive rate into the 100G Datalogging Gas Endpoint using the FC200SR. For all programming and "Check Endpoint" operations, hold the FC200SR as close to vertical as possible. For best success, keep the FC200SR within 6 feet of the target endpoint. Verify you have the correct programming mode (Fixed Network Mode, Mobile/Handheld Mode, or Hard to Read Mobile/Handheld Mode) for your application. Programming parameters are based on the mode defined by your system administrator. During programming, the 100G Datalogging Gas Endpoint is set to the nearest 100 cubic feet; the last two digits (tens and units) are programmed as zeros (0). After programming is complete, the endpoint assembly will read to the nearest cubic foot. 2. Slowly turn the endpoint's drive wriggler two turns in the direction shown on the index drive rate. This verifies the endpoint is counting properly. Caution Do not turn the drive wriggler faster than one turn per second.
