5015 B.U. Bowman Drive Buford, GA 30518 USA Voice: 770-831-8048 Fax: 770-831-8598 Transmitter Certification Test Report FCC ID: SDBGFL FCC Rule Part: CFR 47 Part 24 Subpart D, Part 90 Subpart I, Part 101 Subpart C ACS Report Number: 06-0194-LD Applicant: Advanced Metering Data Systems, LLC Equipment Type: Water Meter Data Transmitter Trade Name: Sensus AMDS GFL Gas Meter Transmitter Model(s): GFL Users Manual 1 Product Description The FlexNet® wireless transmitter for gas AMR applications permits offsite meter reading by way of a fixed base radio network. In addition to solving meter reading problems such as lockouts, entering unsafe meter locations, "curbside" reading estimates, estimated billing, and errors associated with manual meter reading methods, a fixed network provides benefits such as daily reads and status alerts. A significant advantage of the module is its powerful one- Watt transmitter. The long range enabled by the strong signal and high receiver sensitivity, minimizes the number of base station receivers and provides optimal coverage at minimal deployment and ongoing costs. FlexNet transmitters are powered by a replaceable Lithium battery pack, with an expected service life of over 20 years. The transmitter is enclosed in a durable polycarbonate casing with a clear cover that enables reusing the original meter index. The module consists of a narrow band transmitter, magnetic sensors, and mechanical meter interface that includes a shaft with a magnet. A handheld terminal is used to initialize operation. The module monitors the meter and sends data to the base station receiver network at predefined and programmable intervals. Transmitter messages contain meter reading data, status and relevant parameters such as index pressure and the number of dials. Messages are routed to a database, where the data gets formatted for export to billing, marketing and customer service systems.

Remove Index Cover 1. Use a small, flat screwdriver to punch out the snap seals covering the index cover screws. NOTE: If two (2) or more screws shear off during the cover removal (or were previously sheared off), the meter will need to be replaced by a qualified utility representative. Reinstall any index cover screws that were removed and cap with seals if possible. Enter the appropriate information in the Mint HHT 2. Remove the index cover screws. 3. Remove the index cover. Remove Index 1. Remove the screws securing the index to the meter. 2. Carefully, remove the index from the meter. 3. Remove any debris from the index. 4. Inspect the index for proper operation by turning the input shaft and verifying that the gears turn freely. 5. Inspect the index for any missing or broken hands. 6. Use a putty knife to scrape away any remaining gasket material. Mount Transmitter 1. Align the transmitter’s shaft with the gas meter’s male/female wriggler. 2. Place the AMR Transmitter on the gas meter. 3. Adjust the transmitter shaft’s position 4. Ensure the shafts are aligned by holding the transmitter in place and gently rotating the transmitter’s shaft with your other hand. 5. Loosely attach the transmitter to the meter using the transmitter mounting screws 6. Check shaft alignment. NOTE: If two (2) or more screws shear off during the cover installation, the meter will need to be replaced by a qualified utility representative. Reinstall any index cover screws that were removed and cap with seals if possible. Notify the utility of the condition of the meter in accordance with your company policy. 7. Tighten the transmitter mounting screws. Replace Index and Install New Index Cover 1. Loosely attach the index to the transmitter using the index screws. 2. Align the index’s male/female wriggler with the transmitter’s shaft, and adjust as needed. 3. Center the index in the transmitter, and ensure there is no binding between the shaft and the wriggler. 4. Secure the index screws. 5. Install the new index cover. 6. Align th…

The device monitors readings and diagnostic information collected from commercial and residential gas meters via industry standard switch closure or serial data interfaces. The GFL communicates via the AMDS fixed wireless telemetry network to provide meter readings and diagnostic data from the gas meters to the utility provider via a radio link. The device utilizes a printed circuit board antenna that is integral to the GFL circuit board. The GFL is battery operated. 1.3 Test Methodology 1.3.1 General The Sensus AMDS GFL Transmitter (GFL) is designed as module to be integrated into gas meter assemblies. Three printed circuit boards were provided and tested for the purpose of certification. Each printed circuit board was designed to be integrated into a different gas meter assembly and therefore the shape and size vary slightly. The RF portion of each PCB is “electrically identical” and therefore all variations will be covered under a single FCC ID. All three PCB modules were evaluated for radiated emissions and one module tested to the remaining requirements of CFR 47 Part 24D, 90, and 101. The three PCB variations tested and of which the test data is included in this report are identified by the following part numbers: 0216 0217 0218 1.3.2 In-Band Testing Methodology For testing in accordance with 47 CFR 2.1046-2.1057, OET/Lab recommends that the following be used to select test frequencies for licensed devices: Frequency range over which device operates Number of frequencies Location in the range of operation 1 MHz or less 1 Middle 1 to 10 MHz 2 1 near top and 1 near bottom 10 to 100 MHz 3 1 near top, 1 near middle and 1 near bottom Model: GFL FCC ID: SDBGFL ACS Report: 06-0194-LD Advanced Compliance Solutions Page 4 The AMDS GFL Transmitter (GFL) is designed to operate in multiple bands under the requirements of CFR 47 Parts 24, 90, and 101. The following is a list of the frequency bands of operation sorted based on the FCC rule parts in which the band is associated. CFR Title 47 Rule Part Frequency Band of Operation (MHz) 24D 901.0 - 902.0 24D 930.0 - 931.0 24D 940.0 - 941.0 90 896.0375 - 901.0 90 935.0 - 940.0 101 928.85 - 929.0 101 932.0 - 932.5 101 941.0 - 941.5 101 959.85 - 960.0 Based on the requirements set forth in accordance 47 CFR 2.1046-2.1057 as stated above, the methodology in selecting the places to test in the available bands of operation is outlined in the following table. CFR Title 47 Rule Part Frequency Band of Operation (MHz) Location in the Range of Operation 90 896.0375 - 901.0 24D 901.0 - 902.0 1 near top and 1 near bottom 101 928.85 - 929.0 Middle 24D 930.0 - 931.0 Middle 101 932.0 - 932.5 Middle 90 935.0 - 940.0 24D 940.0 - 941.0 101 941.0 - 941.5 1 near top and 1 near bottom 101 959.85 - 960.0 Middle The data provided in this report is sorted based on the rule part. 1.4 Emission Designators The Sensus AMDS GFL Transmi…
