If this is the meter you are looking for, press the “Y” button. If this is not the meter you
are looking for, press the “N” button and the Badger-Radix will continue searching. If
you wish to stop the search, press the Cancel “C” button and you will return to the Search
Menu.
If the Badger-Radix cannot find a meter with the information you entered, you’ll see this
screen.
Searching for accounts using the other fields on the read screen works in exactly the same
way.
Trouble Codes and Reader Codes
If you find that you need to send information about a meter you are reading back to the
office, the Badger-Radix provides a number of ways to do so. They are:
• The Trouble Code
• The three Reader Codes
• The Text Message
The Trouble Code and Reader Codes are messages you can send to the utility office. The
Badger CONNECT software allows you to define up to 99 different messages each to use
for Trouble and Reader codes. The Trouble Code is usually used to specify a problem.
The Reader Codes are usually used to provide additional information about the meter or
the process of reading it. For example, you might enter a Trouble Code that would
indicate that the meter needs repair, while the Reader Codes might indicate information
about accessing the meter, such as a problem dog.
