AMI ENDPOINTS: SOLUTIONS FOR SMART WATER UTILITIES
Meter-Neutral Data Acquisition and Transmission
Installation and Set-Up
SETflow AMI Endpoints are shipped with the cellular radio powered Off and with the installed Bluetooth radio powered On. Once the endpoint is connected to your water meter or sensor, the installer will connect to the endpoint using any Bluetooth enabled smartphone running the SETflow Field Mobile app.
After successfully logging into the mobile app the installer can then activate the cellular installation, enter notes, assign utility premise/location ID, enter initial meter reading, final meter reading if replacing an existing meter, the old and new meter IDs, and immediately confirm cellular signal strength before leaving the site.
Operation
The endpoint can be wired to an encoded output water meter, pulse meters, or sensor. The endpoint then captures all readings and status information from the meter or sensor. The endpoint transmits data at configurable intervals, which can be remotely programmed from the SETflow MDMS cloud-based data management platform or the free SETflow Field Mobile application.
AMI ENDPOINT FEATURES
All SETflow AMI Endpoints are feature rich communication modules that meet the needs of nearly any remote data acquisition situation in a wide variety of topographical and hydrologic environments.

Construction
SETflow AMI Endpoints operate on a D cell battery. The high-density polycarbonate enclosure construction uses a fully encapsulated epoxy resin to ensure the battery and all internal electronics are protected against moisture and vibration.
Meter Connections
AMI Endpoints can be connected to any encoded output meter using a three-wire connector. Most three-wire connectors are supported and can be pre-configured during manufacturing with your connector of choice. If no connector is needed, Endpoints can be shipped with open wire leads for gel-cap or other preferred connection options.
Installation
SETflow AMI Endpoints can be installed in meter pits, attached to walls, or any environment where cellular or LoRa signal is available. The installer can determine network availability in the chosen area and while onsite using the SETflow Field Mobile app.
