MDI baseline file (ChoiceConnect Fixed Network Only)

The MDI baseline file is required to show performance results for all endpoints in a ChoiceConnect Fixed Network solution. The file is based on expected installation locations (service points) where Itron endpoints are installed or where they will be installed. The data in the ChoiceConnect Fixed Network is activated when a matching record for the service point ID is found in the Configuration file. The baseline file is created and processed by ChoiceConnect Fixed Network before the Configuration file.

After the initial device deployment, use the baseline file to add new locations and to update existing locations. Also use the baseline file to remove a service point location.

Typically, the MDI baseline file is an export from the CIS system. The creation of the MDI baseline file is a collaborative effort between the utility and Itron.
