1.3 Definitions
Introduction
In this section, you will find the definitions used in the Kamstrup Meter Reader program. If you do not find an
answer here, go to FAQ.
Missing meters
"Missing meters" is a definition which is used in the views "Home" and “Reading” in the toolbar. A meter is
defined to be missing when the last reading time is before the definition "missing meters" (see below). Thus,
if a meter was read e.g. on 26/11/2009 and the definition "missing meters" is set to 2 days (default), then the
meter will appear on the missing meters list on 29/11/2009. Changing the definition "missing meters" to 14
days will make the meter appear on the missing meters list on 11/12/2009.
Definition of “missing meters”
The number of days from the current date on which data is considered to be old. Thus, if the defintion
"missing meters" is e.g. 2 days (default) and today's date is 20/10/2009, then all data from 17/10/2009 and
before is considered to be old. You can set this value in the menu File
ð
Last Reading / Reading time
Last reading is the time on which the Kamstrup USB Meter Reader system receives the data from a "USB
reader". Thus, if you collect data on 08/08/2009 and do not return to your office the same day (but e.g. the
following morning), then the "Last Reading" time will be on 09/08/2009.
Job / Job list
A Job, or Job list, is a list of meters that a "USB reader" should read. To create a Job (Job List), click on
“Job lists" in the toolbar and create the job in the dialog box “New job”.
