Check

Retrieve and view basic information stored in an endpoint, including the meter reading, tamper values, and programmed parameters.

You must have Check Endpoints permission to perform this function.

Some meters may return an unformatted meter reading. Unformatted meter readings are those that don't indicate which digits are from which dials on the meter. Nor does an unformatted reading show the position of the decimal point (if applicable). In these cases, the Check workflow may request you to select the number of dials on the meter. If it does, use the dropdown menu to select the number of dials on the meter and click Done. This step allows Field Tools to format the meter reading, saving you the inconvenience of mentally converting the reading to the correct format.

Checking a meter or ERT prompts you for inputs. The inputs vary by device. Expand the device type you're working with for its input details. For descriptions of the results, see Result and success fields.

100W

Tip: The View Event Log command is embedded within the Check command's workflow. When you view the Check command's Result and Success fields, open Tampers and Events and select View Event Log. Doing so causes the radio to re-engage with the ERT, and get the ERT's event log. The event log is viewable on the mobile device. When you are done viewing the event log, click Close to go back to the Check results.
