METHOD OF ACQUIRING FLOW RATE DATA, AND SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATIC METER READING

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce an error in a load survey data when a time piece body built in a gasmeter is time-corrected to be set to the time of the time piece in a meter reading center.

SOLUTION: Load survey is started from a time t0. The data 00:00 in the start time is stored in a storage part. A flow rate data D1' at the correction time 00:14 is stored when the time piece body is corrected to set the minute hand forward by two minutes to the time 00:14 just before timing t1 for acquiring the flow rate data over 15 minutes from the t0 up to the t1. A flow rate data D2' from the time 00:16 up to a time t2 is stored at the t2. Any operation is not conducted in correction of -4 minutes at the time 00:55. No flow rate data is acquired to be passed at the time 05:45 just after correction of -10 minutes at a time t23. The twenty-four data comprising D1'-D24' are transmitted, as a block, to the meter reading center.
