Sensus electric meters and third-party meters in a FlexNet system generate alarms, errors and warnings. These alert notifications are transmitted in multiple ways.

Sensus water meters and SmartPoint modules in a FlexNet system generate alarms. These alert notifications are viewed on the LCD or through Device Manager.

Sensus water SmartPoint modules monitor their operation for exceptional or abnormal conditions. When the module detects one of these alarm conditions it is logged in non-volatile memory. If the module is configured for fixed-base mode, an alarm notification message transmits to the RNI.

Gas meter alerts can originate from either the SmartPoint module or the metrology.

Sensus gas SmartPoint modules monitor their operation for exceptional or abnormal conditions. When the module detects one of these alarm conditions it is logged in non-volatile memory. If the module is configured for fixed-base mode, an alarm notification message transmits to the RNI.

The Sensus Smart Gateway Sensor Interface reports alerts that can originate from the Smart Gateway, and its attached digital inputs and sensors.

Base Stations have eight bits for alarms, which display differently depending on the model of Base Station.
