C&I
Commercial & Industrial meters, usually solid state meters with
demand notes.

Concentrator
Device that collects data and events from radio frequency local area
network (RF LAN) devices for storage in the object database;
communicates with the TOP to forward the metering data.

DCW
A Device Control Word (DCW) is a not actually a word, but a program
written in the UtiliNet programming language. DCWs execute within
UtiliNet devices and provide the ability to control the device. The DCW
sits on top of the firmware and directs the radio to do things such as
reboot or perform advanced functions.

Demand
Meter rate.
EEPROM
Electrically Erasable Programmable Read‐Only Memory
Host
The UtiliNet Network reports data to UtiliNet Solution Center software,
which hosts the data and the tools to communicate remotesly with the
radio.
which hosts the data and the tools to communicate remotesly with the
radio.
Init Poll
The first time the host requests data from an module, it is the
Inititalization Poll (Init Poll). Configurable options, such as enhanced
Restoration verification, may be set at this time.
