METHOD AND APPARATUS WITH INDUCTIVE COUPLING CONNECTOR FOR CONNECTING A WATER METER TO A WIRELESS DATA-COMMUNICATION DEVICE
摘要
A method and apparatus for coupling a meter register to a communication device such that output data signals from the meter register can be transmitted to a remote location. The coupling arrangement includes a data transfer wire that is connected to the meter register and is inductively coupled to the communication device such that the data transfer wire does not need to be conductively connected to the communication device. During installation of the communication device, the inductive coupling between the data transfer wire and the communication device eliminates the requirement of a conductive connection.
