Find on Wrong This setting pertains only to touch
meter reading. The gathered meter
reading information contains the
module ID number. If the number
is different than the ID number for
the current meter on the read screen
(the meter was read out of
sequence), the Badger-Radix will
search for the correct meter if this
setting is chosen. If the setting is
not chosen, the Badger-Radix will
alert you to the fact that the reading
indicates that the wrong meter is
being read.
This setting is very handy for
touch meter reading because
it allows you to read meters
out of the normal reading
sequence. If you need to
resequence the route, using
this setting you can read the
route in the new reading
sequence order with ease.
You can then resequence the
route using the new read
date/times.

Auto Clear
Tamper
This setting is used with older
technology radio systems.
This setting is not used within
the Badger-Radix.
Verification When this setting is chosen, the
Badger-Radix will request a manual
reading for each successful reading.
This manual verification of the
interrogated reading can be used to
satisfy requirements in some states.
If you are required by state
law to periodically verify an
interrogated meter reading
with a visual reading, the
Badger-Radix will request
your required visual reading
when this setting is chosen.
Show Previous
Reading
This setting (as well as Show High
and Low) controls the amount of
information available to the meter
reader. When this setting is chosen,
the previous reading value is
displayed when the View High/Low
button is pressed.
To insure accuracy of the meter
readings, some utilities will
choose to clear this setting.
Other utilities will choose this
setting so that if an
investigation on the operation
of the meter is needed, this
information is available. You
need to determine which option
is right for you.
Hi / Low
Readings Fail
This setting allows you to choose how
the high and low limits are used in the
Badger-Radix. If the setting is
checked, the Badger-Radix will label a
reading as High if the reading is
greater than or equal to the high limit.
Similarly, the reading will be labeled
low if the value is less than or equal to
the low limit. When the setting is
unchecked, the high and low
processing is strictly greater than the
high limit or less than the low limit.
If you use the last meter
reading as the low limit and
you wish to be alerted to
conditions of no usage, check
this setting. Note that the
high and low limit checking
is only in the Badger-Radix.
It does not extend to Badger
CONNECT.
