Specifications Electrical Radio 922MHz license free DSSS transmit only Centre Frequency 922.00MHz , +/- 20ppm over temperature and lifetime Output Power 27 dBm Sensor type External reed switch with tamper loop Antenna Internal 0dBi monopole Burst interval 60 min Burst time 330ms Battery Single LSH20 (D size 3.6V LiThCl) non replaceable Lifetime Minimum 10 years Environmental Operating temperature -10C to 60C, battery lifetime guaranteed for operating environment where average temperature does not exceed 40C Water resistance IP68 (submersible to 1m) Shock Will survive drop from 1m height unattached and 100mm height when attached to water meter UV Capable of withstanding 15 year direct sun exposure Page 3 of 6 Wiring Instructions The LORIKEET HP1 is shipped preconfigured with a meter probe. Possible probes include: Refer to the Taggle Field Installation Manual for details on fitting the probe to the meter. The LORIKEET HP1 can also be supplied with an un-terminated 4 core cable for connection to probes from alternative meter manufacturers or connection directly to the pulse output from electronic meters. The wiring instructions are shown in the following table: Probe Name Elster Part No. Appropriate Meters T-probe MEB7454 V100 T140/PG100 45245-00 H4000, S2000, C4000, C4200 M160/V200 45250-00 V200, V210, V120, V140, Combination Meters PR6 2925M1221 V200 (replacement for M160) PR7 2925M1280 H4000 (replacement for PG100) Page 4 of 6 Conductor Function Connection Red Pulse circuit In Meter contact output Blue Pulse circuit Ground Meter contact output Ground Yellow Tamper circuit In Loop back to Tamper Ground (Black) Black Tamper circuit Ground Loop back to Tamper In (Yellow) Table 1. Lorikeet HP1 Wiring Diagram The pulse circuit (red/blue pair) should be connected to the pulse output of an electronic meter or the reed switch of a 3 rd party passive probe. The pulse counter input is designed to be connected to contact closure circuits only. Connection to meter pulse outputs which actively drive the output in the on and off state is possible, however the maximum recommended voltage on the pulse counter input (red wire) is 3.6V Warning: Never connect the pulse counter input to an active pulse output > 5V as this will permanently damage the LOROKEET HP1 and may damage the meter as well. The tamper loop should be enabled by connecting the yellow and black conductors together at far end of the cable. If the cable is cut for any reason a tamper alert will be transmitted. Warning: Do not leave the tamper circuit un-terminated as this may result in unwanted tamper alarms being triggered. Mounting Instructions The Lorikeet HP1 is suitable for both below ground installation in meter and irrigation pits, as well as above ground mounted on posts or other non-metallic structures such as fences. As with all radio devices superior range and reliability will be achieved with above ground deployments. When installing the device inside pits where possible the device should be mounted vertically with the cable at the bottom, as shown in the diagram below. Figure 1. Pit Installation Pits with plastic or concrete lids are preferable to metal lids to avoid excess radio signal attenuation. For above ground installations the device can be mounted directly to the meter using a metal bracket as shown below. Alternatively the device can be fixed to nearby walls or fences; however for best Page 5 of 6 results the device should be at least 15cm away from nearby solid objects to avoid de-tuning the antenna. Fixing directly to metal structures is not recommended. Figure 2. Meter Installation For long range rural applications the device can be mounted on 25mm PVC conduit attached to a star picket as shown below. Best results will be obtained if the device can be located away from local obstructions such as trees and bushes. Page 6 of 6 Figure 3. Long Range Installation
