FlexNet® SmartPoint® Module
for Aclara i210+c
Quick Guide
The Sensus FlexNet™ SmartPoint® module provides wireless communication capability to electric utility meters. The
Aclara i210+c™ meter is an electronic, single-phase or network, demand and time-of-use (TOU) electricity meter intended primarily for residential applications.
The I-210+c meter with the FlexNet module
will have a visible label containing the follow-
ing information:
Contains Model: FXZIG210
Contains FCC ID: SDBFXZIG210
Contains IC: 2220A-FXZIG210
Board Location
Technical Overview
The FlexNet communications network offers a simple, reliable, and secure
system that is economical for mass meter deployments, strategic deploy-
ments, and rural applications while providing a multi-application solution
for all AMI end points. The FlexNet network enhances the i210+c meter by
providing AMI capability.
The FlexNet SmartPoint module is a printed circuit board which provides
wireless communication capability to the Aclara i210+c electric meter. The
SmartPoint module interrogates the meter registers on a programmable
interval from five minutes to daily readings. The SmartPoint module then
transmits the meter consumption and status information at regular inter-
vals.
The module mounts into the existing i210+c meter and acts as a “third
party AMR board.” It is designed to mount mechanically into the meter
with no additional mechanical modification required.
The module communicates via the FlexNet fixed wireless telemetry
network to provide electric meter readings and diagnostic data from the
meter to the utility provider via radio.
The module contains both a receiver and transmitter to allow for two-way
communications over the FlexNet network.

Warnings & Hazards
WARNING
Sensus devices are for professional installation only. ey are to
be serviced by professional personnel only. is product is NOT
for consumer installation or servicing.
WARNING
e antenna used for this transmitter must not be co-located in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
ATTENTION
Note: is equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. ese limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
is equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment o and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit dierent
form that to which the receiver is connected
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help
WARNING
If you are not sure of the rated power of your radio, contact your
Sensus representative or dealer and supply the product model
number found on the product label. If you cannot determine the
rated power out, then assure 3-feet separation from the body to
the device.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS
INSIDE. REFER TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
RADIATION HAZARD
In order to satisfy the FCC RF exposure limit for transmitting
devices, a separation distance of 20cm (7.87 inches) or more
should be maintained while operating the Sensus FXZIG210. To
ensure compliance, operation at closer than this distance is not
recommended. is minimum safe distance is required between
personnel and the antenna of this device.
RADIATION HAZARD
In order to satisfy the ISED RF exposure limit for transmitting
devices, a separation distance of 29cm (11.4 inches) or more
should be maintained while operating the Sensus FXZIG210. To
ensure compliance, operation at closer than this distance is not
recommended. is minimum safe distance is required between
personnel and the antenna of this device.
An de satisfaire à la limite d’exposition RF pour les appareils de
transmission, une distance de séparation de 29cm (11.4 pouces)
ou plus doit être maintenu pendant le fonctionnement du Sensus
FXZIG210. Pour assurer la conformité, un fonctionnement à
distance inférieure à celle est pas recommandée. Cette distance
minimale de sécurité est nécessaire entre le personnel et l’antenne
de cet appareil.
ATTENTION
Any modications made to this device that are not approved by
Sensus may void the authority granted to the user by the FCC to
operate equipment.
ATTENTION
is 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.
ATTENTION
is radio transmitter the Sensus FXZIG210 has been approved
by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed
below with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna
impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not
included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum
gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with
this device.
Le présent émetteur radio (Sensus FXZIG210) a été approuvé
par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner avec les types d’antenne
énumérés ci-dessous et ayant un gain admissible maximal
et l’impédance requise pour chaque type d’antenne. Les types
d’antenne non inclus dans cette liste, ou dont le gain est supérieur au gain maximal indiqué, sont strictement interdits pour
l’exploitation de l’émetteur.

Warnings & Hazards
ATTENTION
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may
only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser)
gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce
potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and
its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful
communication.
Conformément à la réglementation d’Industrie Canada, le présent
émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d’un type et
d’un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l’émetteur par
Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage
radioélectrique à l’intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir
le type d’antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope
rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l’intensité nécessaire
à l’établissement d’une communication satisfaisante.
