1 Overview The purpose of this document is to provide guidelines allowing an integrator to design a host product that uses the “Raptor” MCM (Meter Communications Module) and ensures that the system meets all of its technical objectives and requirements. 1.1 ULP Wireless Network The On-Ramp Wireless ULP network is comprised of Nodes (such as Raptor) and Access Points (AP) and operates in the unlicensed 2.4 ISM band.
Model EM110100 Integration Specification Overview 1.2 Referenced Documents The following documents are referenced and provide more detail: ULP Node Interface Library (UNIL) (010-0066-00) Provides information about the library of portable C code provided by On-Ramp Wireless which can be integrated into a customer’s existing software architecture. UNIL API (010-0072-00) Provides details relating to the UNIL Application Programming Interface.
2 Safety and Regulatory Considerations 2.1 Danger: High Voltages When the Raptor is integrated to the meter, high voltages are present: CAUTION: When the Raptor is mounted in an I210 Meter, the term “GND” or “Ground” does NOT refer to Earth ground. All signals will have a 120/240VAC power superimposed onto those lines. All signals to/from the raptor need to be isolated. No grounded instruments, or computers, should touch the Raptor signals. It is recommended to use the following isolation/drivers.
Model EM110100 Integration Specification Safety and Regulatory Considerations Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. NOTE: This 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. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.

Model EM110100 Integration Specification Safety and Regulatory Considerations 2.7 Block Diagram Some regulatory domains require a block diagram of the module for their documentation similar to that shown in the following figure. Figure 3. Raptor Block Diagram 2.8 EMC Certifications The Raptor is designed to meet regulations for world-wide use. It has EMC modular approval certifications in the United States, Canada, and Japan.
Model EM110100 Integration Specification Safety and Regulatory Considerations The Grants issued by their respective governments for Raptor are available to System Integrators to ensure that the product has been certified. For more information about these documents, see the list of documents referenced in section 1. 2.9 WEEE Directive Neither the Raptor nor node are considered “end products” that put them under the WEEE initiatives in the EU. The WEEE directives do not apply to the Raptor product. 2.

7 Provisioning The tools and software required for provisioning the Raptor modules are described in this section. The Provisioning process can be handled in two main ways: Manual for small runs Automatic for full production. 7.1 Manual The Node Provisioning Tool (see referenced tools/documents) can be used to provision Raptors in small quantity. The PC will attach to the DUT Raptor via its Provisioning header (UART is 3.3V).

Appendix B Test Mode The test modes, described below, are set by setting the "testMode" parameter in the EMCM's config file. Normal Operating Mode 0 This mode is entered based on a flash configuration setting. This mode is persistent across boots. This is the normal operating mode of the EMCM. UNIL is initialized to communicate with the node. The meter software layer is initialized to communicate with the meter.
Model EM110100 Integration Specification The frequency is controlled by the "txTestCenterFreqKhzOffset" parameter in the config file. KHz offset from 2.4 GHz 2000 - 100000 e.g., 50000 = 2.45 GHz The VGA is controlled by the "txTestVga" parameter in the config file. Test Mode 0 - 63, 255 The on/off duration is controlled by the "txTestModeSec" and "txTestModeUsec" parameters in the config file.
Model EM110100 Integration Specification Test Mode Setting EMCM to Test Mode 1 - Non-Persistent Idle Factory Test Mode How to Enter Set the 'testMode' flag in the config file to one. e.g. ./emcm_set_cfg.py -d /dev/ttyS0 --testMode=1 Reset the EMCM to take effect. e.g. ./emcm_dev_reset.py -d /dev/ttyS0 --emcm How to Exit Because this mode is non-persistent, it can be exited via an EMCM reset. Reset the EMCM to exit the test mode.
Model EM110100 Integration Specification Test Mode Setting EMCM to Test Mode 3 - Non-Persistent RF Test Mode How to Enter Set the 'testMode' flag in the config file to three. e.g. ./emcm_set_cfg.py -d /dev/ttyS0 --testMode=3 Reset the EMCM to take effect. e.g. ./emcm_dev_reset.py -d /dev/ttyS0 --emcm How to Exit Because this mode is non-persistent, it can be exited via an EMCM reset. Reset the EMCM to exit the test mode.
