READING METER DATA
The Read Meter Data command allows you to read TOU and demand data from
an electricity meter. The meter data is then transferred into EA_Inspector
Manager. Once in EA_Inspector Manager, EA_Inspector Manager posts the
collected meter data to a pre-defined location in an AMRDEF format file (the same
file type as used by EA_MS to deliver meter data). This method of obtaining meter
data provides a mechanism for by-passing any gatekeeper or WAN problems
that may impact the delivery of billing data.
