Quick guide
1 Red the signl strength on the module LEDs (minimum two must be on).
2 If the signl strength is below 2, n externl ntenn must be instlled.
3 The externl ntenn must be plced t  loction tht optimises the reception of the signl.
Chnge the position of the ntenn until the best position hs been found.
4 Before leving the instlltion, you must test the signl strength vi  text messge
(=STATUS#). The meter housing nd the doors must be closed before sending the text
messge.
1 Tips
• Alwys instll n externl ntenn when instlling the unit in  metl cbinet.
The ntenn must be plced outside the cbinet.
• Use qud-bnd GSM ntenns to optimise the performnce.
• Note tht fire doors s well s concrete nd metl pltes disturb nd weken the GSM signl.
• It is possible to order directionl ntenns for res with very poor signl conditions (plese
contct Kmstrup A/S for further informtion).
If the meter is plced
in  metl cbinet, the
ntenn must be plced
outside the cbinet.
If the meter is plced under
ground level (e.g. in 
bsement), the ntenn must
be plced close to  window
or outside the building.
Mke sure tht ll
cbinets nd doors re
closed before sending
the text messge.

2 Mounting of OMNICON® 2G Modem
OMNICON® 2G Modem, rticle number 681Axxxxxxxx, is supplied through the module connector
nd cn be connected to n externl ntenn.
2.1 Mounting order
1 Dismount the top cover of the meter.
2 Insert SIM crd (see “SIM crd”, pge 8).
3 Plce the module in the meter's module
re (plese check tht the eight module
pins re ll plugged in).
4 When ll the green diodes on the module
stop flshing, the signl strength is red on
the indictor
(see “Signl strength indictor”, pge 7).
5 If the signl strength is not cceptble,
mount n externl ntenn. This requires
tht the internl ntenn is removed.
(See “Mounting of externl ntenn (to
be ordered seprtely)”, pge 9 nd
“Externl ntenn”, pge 10.
6 Before leving the instlltion, check the
signl strength by sending  text messge
(see “SMS commnds”, pge 11).
If the module does not indicte norml
operting conditions (such s sufficient
signl strength), refer to “Error detection
help”, pge 11.

3 Light-emitting diodes
The LEDs ensure tht the instller is provided with sufficient knowledge to mke  good instlltion
without using externl tools.
Note: All LEDs turn off fter 10 minutes.
They cn be rectivted by pushing the button.

3.2.3 Connected to network nd to meter
The network to which the module is connected ppers from the LEDs t the bottom of the
module. More thn one LED cn be on t  time. Furthermore, the red METER LED flshes if there
is no connection between the meter nd the module. The Dt/GPRS LED is lit if the module is
ssigned n IP ddress.

3.2.4 Signl strength indictor
When the signl strength is less thn 2, n externl ntenn must be mounted. If n externl
ntenn hs lredy been mounted, it should be repositioned to obtin the required signl
strength.

4 SIM crd
4.1 Mounting the SIM crd
The unit cn be ordered with the SIM crd
mounted from the fctory. Check tht the crd
hs been inserted. The telephone number of
the crd ppers from  lbel on the module.
Kmstrup A/S cnnot be held responsible for
theft nd misuse of SIM crds from OMNICON®
2G/4G modem units.
When the SIM crd holder is opened, the
connection to the SIM crd is disrupted.
When the SIM crd hs been inserted
correctly nd the holder is closed, the module
strts utomticlly.
If the unit is supplied without  SIM crd, mke
sure to insert one before using the unit.
The SIM crd holder is opened by pushing the
bright holder bck nd crefully tipping it up.
Then plce the SIM crd with the “cut-off”
corner in the top left side nd with the contcts
fcing the PCB.
4.2 SIM crd requirements
The SIM crd must fulfil the following requirements:
DATA/SMS, Mini-SIM (stndrd size)
PIN code must be disbled, no voice nd no prepid crd.

5 Mounting of externl ntenn (to be ordered seprtely)
Externl ntenns with DC resistnce between the inner nd outer conductors of 1 K ohms or less
re detected utomticlly. This pplies to the following ntenns:

6 Externl ntenn
6.1 OMNICON® 2G Modem
Connect the externl ntenn to the connector
on the module. Be creful to her  "click" to
ensure tht the two connectors re connected
correctly. It is NOT llowed to use ny tools for
mounting the ntenn connector. Plce the
ntenn cble inside the plstic frme of the
module, nd led the cble out through the
cble chnnel t the bottom of the electricity
meter.
It is importnt to especilly note tht the
internl ntenn CANNOT be mounted together
with the externl ntenn nd thus must med
removed.
IMPORTANT
To ensure tht the externl ntenn is mounted
in such  wy tht it optimises the reception
conditions, the signl indictor on the module
must be observed (see “Light Emitting Diodes”,
pge 6). Chnge the position of the externl
ntenn until the best position hs been found.
Mounting the externl ntenn
Remove the internl ntenn nd replce
it with n externl ntenn.
