640C / 640MC Infrastructure

The 640C product range has SensusRF integrated technology providing the advantages of both uni- and bidirectional system architecture as described below. SensusRF is the optimized license-free radio system for battery-driven endpoints and repeaters. Scalable for mobile and remote reading without the exchange of components, it is available at 433 MHz and is OMS compatible.

SensusRF offers two communication modes.

1) Fixed Radio Network

• Auto configuration wizard (gateway sniffing for endpoints and repeaters)
• Integrating repeaters (up to 7 hops in a chain)
• Self-healing network (using alternative routes)
• The meter reading is transparent and local.
• Fast track alarms
• DMA snapshot of a water network for evaluation)
• TCP/IP technology for the WAN communication
• High level of data security (end-to-end encryption)
• Enables cloud technologies, FTP, and other remote database applications.

2) Mobile read - Walk-by / Drive-by

• Unidirectional telegrams
• Bidirectional communication
• Spontaneous reception is possible without a route.
• Configuration of the endpoint

SIRT (Sensus Interface Radio Tool)

SIRT is a radio modem for SensusRF radio, connected to a handheld via Bluetooth and using DIAVASO Mobile Reading software with the following features:

• Installation and readout of devices
• Reception of frequently transmitted radio messages from Sensus RF radio endpoints
• Request additional information from the radio endpoints.
• Change configuration of radio endpoints (alarm, level settings... )
