Customer Information File
Customer information must be associated with the Cellular meters via a flat file import, through inte-
gration services, or by manually entering the information into Command Center.
NOTE: A Customer Information File will be provided to the customer with the Meter Manufacturer 
File. The CIF is a required file, because it contains the Integrated Circuit Card Identifier (ICCID) 
which is associated with the meter number. This value will be needed in order to activate the cellular 
account, so that auto-registration can occur. The ICCID will populate the Custom 1 field in the CIF.
Following is the procedure for associating customer information with cellular meter modules 
through a flat file import:
1. Click Operations > Import > Customer Information. The Customer Information window will 
open, shown in the following figure.
 Figure 4 - 3. Customer Information
2. Enter the path to the file that contains the meter modules to be archived, or click the Browse 
button to browse to the file location.
3. Click Save to import the file. Customer data provided in the import file will now be associated 
with the water modules.
The .csv template hyperlink will open a template which can be used for creating the file.
Import Installation File
After the meter manufacturer file has been imported, the installation file can be imported. The instal-
lation file includes information about the date and time of the installation, as well as latitude and lon-
gitude information for the Center system map. 
NOTE: NOTE: Importing installation data is not a requirement, however some Command Center 
deployment tracking and troubleshooting reports will be affected if installation date/time, latitude and 
longitude are not populated in the Command Center database.
