This system eliminates the need for expensive signal wires from the sensor output . The battery powered flow sensor performs flow measurement and scaling and then transmits a total flow value to the RF transmitter . The transmitter sends an RF signal approximately every four seconds that the RF receiver detects . The RF receiver compares the previous flow total with the most recent flow total to generate a pulse output . Using the PC software, which is part of the software installation kit, the pulse output can be scaled to represent the desired volume unit and number of output pulses per unit volume that best fits the application . Pulse width can also be adjusted to meet the requirements of an interfacing control system or monitor . LICENSE REQUIREMENTS ORION Fixed Network, Migratable and Classic endpoints comply with Part 15 of FCC Rules . ORION Cellular endpoints comply with Part 15, Part 22 and Part 24 of FCC Rules . Operation is subject to the following conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device . In accordance with FCC Regulations, “Code of Federal Regulations” Title 47, Part 2, Subpart J, Section 1091, transmitters pass the requirements pertaining to radiation exposure . However, to avoid public exposure in excess of limits for general population (uncontrolled exposure), a 20 centimeter distance between the transmitter and the body of the user must be maintained during operation . No FCC license is required by a utility to operate an ORION meter reading system . This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s) . Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device . Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence . L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement . IMPORTTNT Transportation: The Federal Aviation Administration prohibits operating endpoints and receivers on all commercial aircraft. The ORION endpoint is considered an operating transmitter and cannot be shipped by air.
