User Guide

Cellular meters communicate point to point with Gridstream Command Center. They do not commu-
nicate with other meters, routers, or collectors. Although cellular meters do not communicate 
through a collector, Command Center will automatically assign a virtual collector to the meters. This 
allows cellular technology to easily integrate into the existing Gridstream solution and simplifies 
management of cellular meters.

Enhanced Cellular Endpoints perform Self Reads daily at midnight (by default). The reads will then 
be sent to Command Center. Interval Data is pushed every four hours (by default). Cellular meters 
can support interval data up to every fifteen minutes.



NOTE: Command Center must be installed/upgraded with Cellular functionality active. The Com-
mand Center Installer automatically installs cellular functionality unless the user has chosen to 
exclude. See Landis+Gyr publication 98-1664, Command Center Installation Suite, for more informa-
tion on Gridstream Enhanced Cellular Installation.



NOTE: Meters must have custom attributes programmed at the time of manufacture. The cellular 
endpoints are unique in that the SIM card must be activated prior to deployment of the endpoints.

The cellular communication module is not available as a stand alone product.

The endpoint assembly contains:

Gridstream Enhanced Cellular communication module

Interior antenna for Cellular radio

Built-in antenna for ZigBee
