On the surface, it is a ece modular unit designed for more Utility operation, less maintenance, easier allation, superior accuracy, and safer serviceability. Beneath its basic exterior, Altimus utilizes integrated electronic components to provide more than kWh -only functionality The mechanics of this unique design and the advantages offered make up the many specifications for per- formance that define the Altimus meter family from Landis & Gyr.

By utilizing sophisticated microprocessors and other advanced electronics, this module provides energy mea- suring functionality never before offered in a residential metering product. In addition, the Utility Control Module can be easily upgraded as installation requirements change and technology advances in the future. EEPROM Data retention of Program and calibration information is retained indefinitely in the event of any power failure. The Electronic Digital Display is designed to be readable from over 12 jeet away and features many configurations, an enunciator that flashes at the rate of the Kt of the meter, and indications for energy direction and tampering. The readout is easier for customers to read, and should therefore result in fewer inquiries regarding billing errors. /lTi NUS 4,LANOISi GYR An optional KYZ Pulse The Current Transformer used in the Output allows passing of Altimus meter family provides excellent sta- pulse information to other bility across the Toad curve. Careful material devices in an integer multiple selection and process control yield consistent of the Kt value of the meter. accuracy required for interchangeability. Flexibility for customers allows factory programming of a variety of display options. Calibration constants for .voltage, current and phase angle are stored in non- volatile EEPROM memory and cannot be recalibrated except at the factory. The Fixed Energy Terminal, the base unit of Altimus, interfaces between the meter mounting device and the interchangeable Utility Control Module. The Fixed Energy Terminal automatically aligns with the unit, can service all single-phase applications, provides consistent calibration, and is designed to maintain accuracy by withstanding adverse operating variations. The low component count and careful material selection, combined with state-of-the-art design techniques, result in a long-lived metering product. The elements of Altimus offer exceptional performance advantages for utility companies to generate a cost- effective return on their investment. The solid state design of Altimus offers superb accuracy far superior than electromechanical or electromechanical hybrid meters. Surge arrestors are designed to prevent damage and withstand surges up to IOKV. The reliability of Altimus is ensured by a Fixed Ent Terminal unit life expectancy of 30 years and a Uti Control Module unit built with state-of-the-art components and processes. Altimus is stress -resistant to the installation process or the interface between the meter and the socket. With a low starting watts and meter burden, the Altimus meter saves you money by measuring energy which was previously lost. Altimus is FCC -compliant for computing devices a; related to electronic meters. Because Altimus is microprocessor based with an microprocessor, meter flexibility is increased and allows for new technology implementation.

The ALT/MUSMeter Family Note: At the time of this publication, the ADVANCED FUNCTION ALT/MUS input/output relay, RS-232, RS-485, and modem boards were not yet available. Please contact Siemens Power Transmission & Distribution, Inc., for the latest information regarding the availability of these communication options. i The ALT/MUSprovides more than just reliability and accurate billing data. The AL77MUSis designed to be a building block for a complete metering system. Each ALT/MUShas built in # compatibility for a variety of communication boards including an internal phone modem, an RS- 232 board, an RS-485 board, or an input/output relay board. Any of these can be factory # installed or conveniently added to the meter in the field. All active energy ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL T/MUSmeters can be upgraded to reactive energy meters using software upgrade kits. No additional circuitry is needed to upgrade these meters. Combining the * ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL T/MUSwith the DG1150 Data Analysis software package yields a complete system for real-time voltage, current, and load data monitoring; user defined event alerts; graphical load analysis capability; and vector diagrams. 2.1. Register Types # As shown in Table 1 and Figures 4 and 5, the ALT/MUSis available with several register types, # ANCEDFUNCTIONALT/MUSfeatures the AXand RXregister providing the right functionality for any metering application. The KWHALT/MUSfeatures the AL register type. The ADV types and includes ServiceScan automatic service recognition and GyrBox installation diagnostics and monitoring. i Table 1-ALT/MUSRegister Types # AL Register, "" The KWHALT/MUSfeatures the AL register. It is a kilowatt - " hour -only meter designed to replace electromechanical meters x' for energy -only billing applications. The KWHALT/MUSis e programmed at the factory for proper displays. It requires no t� W; programming and provides the accuracy and flexibility of solid state technology. AX Feyist r The ADVANCEDFUNCT/ONALT/MUSis a combination " demand and time -of -use active energy meter featuring the AX register. When programmed for demand, the meter requires no battery. By re -programming and adding a battery, it becomes a ' full -function time -of -use meter with a supercapacitor to extend �w battery life. The AXALT/MUSregister can be upgraded to a reactive energy RXregister using a software upgrade kit. a i i • 3 The ADVANCED FUNCTION Al. T/MUSalso features the RX register for full -function active and reactive energy demand -only or demand and time -of -use metering. Available metrics include kW/kWh, kVAR/kVARh, and kVA/kVAh as well as power factor. The RXregister supports both rms and time -delay measurement techniques allowing the user to choose the most appropriate method. Figure 4 — KWHALT/MUS Figure 5—ADVANCED FUNC77ONALTIMUS 3. Upgradability and the ServiceSafe Interface The ALT/MUSfamily of products has been designed for field service and field upgradability. Once an ALT/MUSmeter is in service, the ServiceSafeTm interface allows safe removal of an Electronics Module without the need to remove the Base Module from the meter socket. Once disconnected from the Base Module, an Electronics Module can be modified and reinstalled or it can be replaced with an Electronics Module featuring a different level of functionality. a 3.1. Removal of the Electronics Module from the Base Module To remove the Electronics Module from the Base Module, the plastic rivets (Figure 6, shown in white for clarity) that fasten the Electronics Module to the Base Module must be removed. 4 A 4 Rivet Rivet Figure 6 - ALT/MUSCover Rivets The ALT/MUSmeter must be held securely during the rivet removal process. Because the ALT/MUSmeter is designed to be modified in service, the meter should be securely installed in a mounting device during rivet removal. Alternately, the meter can be stabilized by holding it along the edge of a table top with the right side of the baseplate cover flat against the table top during right rivet removal or with the left side of the baseplate cover flat against the table top during left rivet removal. To remove the Electronics module from the Base Module, any meter seals must first be removed. The ALT/MUScan be sealed with either T-seals or rivet caps. T-seals should be removed. Rivet caps should be carefully punctured through the top and extracted from rivet channels. Do not reuse seals. Force the rivet center post through the rivet using either a hammer and 3/32" punch (Figures 7 and 8) or Siemens rivet removal tool, part number 70019-1 (Figures 9 and 10). Discard the used rivets.
