Caboose CMS Reading the Units : The meter displays usage in Gallons (GAL) Cubic Feet (CF/FT³) Cubic Meters (M³) Large Digits : These typically represent whole units (e.g., gallons). Digits After Decimal Current Reading: Total volume (GAL or CF)

: These show fractional units (e.g., hundredths of a gallon). Flow Indicators Circle with a Plus (+) : Indicates forward water flow. Circle with a Minus (-) : Indicates reverse flow. Empty Circle : Indicates an empty pipe (no water detected). AMR Digit Bar

: Dashes appearing above specific digits indicate which numbers are being transmitted to the utility via the Automated Meter Reading system. Key Features & Maintenance Sensus iPERL® (International) Water Meter

Troubleshooting (common issues)

• No flow reading but water is flowing: check valve positions, debris in strainer, register seating, or damaged measuring chamber.
• Erratic readings: air in line, conductive debris, improper upstream conditions (turbulence), or register fault.
• Reverse flow indications: check for backflow conditions or cross-connections.
• Communication failures: check antenna placement, module seating, and AMR/AMI network status.
