E-CODER

Quick Install Guide

1 General Instructions

The E-CODER®is an electronic absolute encoder register

designed for use with Neptune’s Automatic Reading and Billing

(ARB®) System. This register operates with Neptune’s R900®

and R450™MIUs, providing advanced features such as leak,

backflow, and tamper detection.

With the E-CODER register, both the homeowner and the utility

can use the following features.

• Nine-digit display for visual reading

• Eight digits for billing

• Water flow indicators

• Intermittent leak detection icon on LCD panel

• Continuous leak detection icon on LCD panel

This guide can help you identify and read information displayed

on the E-CODER register. It can also help you recognize the

common causes of leaks and what to do if a leak is found. After

the leak is repaired, this guide also contains steps to determine

that the leak is no longer evident.

2 Product Description

The face of the E-CODER allows you to read various types of

information available. The face of the E-CODER is shown in

3 Wiring Inside Set Version

Run a three-conductor cable from the E-CODER register to the

MIU. Refer to the following steps.

1 Connect the three-conductor wire to the encoder register’s

terminals as described in the manufacturer’s instructions,

using the color code in Table 1.

2 Remove the terminal cover with a flat-head screw driver as

shown in Figure 2.

5 Installation Instructions for Networked

Receptacle/Dual Port MIUs

The Dual Port R900 and R450 MIUs work only with Neptune

ProRead™ or E-CODER registers. Each register must be

programmed in “RF Network” mode prior to installation.

9 Separate the gray wires,

and place in the slots on

each side of the splice tube

as shown in Figure 15.

10 Snap the cover closed to

finish the installation as

shown in Figure 16.

Enhanced R900 v4 MIUs are not Dual Port

capable. These instructions only apply to v3

MIUs.

• E-CODER registers cannot be programmed

while connected together in a network. Each

prior to making the network connection.

• The designations HI and LO are

Neptune's designations for the high (HI) flow

or turbine side of the compound, and the low

(LO) flow or disc side of the compound.

• The settings can also be used to designate

the primary (HI) and secondary (LO) meters

in a dual set application

Programming the HI Register

To complete the following steps, use the Neptune field

programmer to select the ProRead Program tab for

programming.
