Uninstall an OpenWay Riva Routing Node ERT Gateway Star

This scenario describes how to configure the MDI file when removing an OpenWay Riva Routing Node ERT Gateway (RN-EGS) Star. In this scenario, an existing device is being removed from a service point and is not being replaced with a new device.

In the XML file, the relationship between the device and the service point is ended at the time set in the DeviceLinkRange element's End attribute. No meter configuration is involved in this scenario. The RN-EGS is a non-metering device and is connected directly to the service point. Once the RN-EGS is uninstalled, 100-series devices will attempt to bubble up their readings to another RN-EGS device. Successful migration to an active RN-EGS relies on network design.

In the field, the RN-EGS is uninstalled from the service point location.

Source of the MDI file

  • CIS
  • MDM
  • For Itron Analytics, the MDI file should always come from OpenWay Operations Center - Collection Manager.
