RadioRead™ Meter Transceiver
Units (MXU’s)
The ICE registers in combination with a MXU allows
the meter to be read by a Radio Frequency HandHeld Device (RFHHD) or a vehicle mounted receiver and offers a
variety of features and advantages, including:
• MXU’s offer several installation options; pit, non-pit,
single port and dual port.
• 20-year battery life. Batteries are field replaceable.
• MXU’s are completely encased in High Density Polyethylene making them weatherproof.
• MXU’s can be programmed with interval data and leak
detection giving a utility tools to examine and monitor
customer trends.
• All MXU’s have integrated TouchRead backup in case
of mass failure.
• Application – The RadioRead™ Meter Transceiver Unit
(MXU) is a radio signal device which permits off-site
meter reading via radio signals. The MXU interfaces
any compatible absolute encoder equipped utility meter
with a RadioRead™ interrogation device. The MXU is
used for both inside and pit-set utility meter installations
to provide safe, off-site meter reading.
• The MXU provides the industry’s only two-port radio
interface device. In addition to the two-port design, the
MXU is compatible with the MultiRead™ Module that
permits two, four, or eight meter connections per MXU
port. This feature provides enhanced cost effective AMR
where multiple meter installations exist.

RadioRead reading equipment offers a choice of meter reading options. The Radio Frequency HandHeld Device
(RFHHD), (shown below right) used by a meter reader on foot, can also accept TouchRead® System electronic and manually entered reading data. A more powerful portable Vehicle Transceiver Unit (VXU) (pictured on the left) can be used in
any vehicle having a 12-volt electrical system.

AMR System MultiRead™ Module
• Application – The MultiRead™ module allows the
utility to connect multiple meters to one Sensus meter
reading interface device. The MultiRead capability is
available for all Sensus AMR systems. These include
the TouchRead® System, the RadioRead® System, and
the call inbound PhonRead® System. It is ideal for installations where multiple meters are installed in close
proximity such as apartment buildings and shopping
center complexes.
• Expandability – With the choice of 2-channel (Model
MR-2), 4-channel (Model MR-4) and 8-channel (Model
MR-8) modules, the utility can choose for optimum
installation. With an 8-channel module, up to 8 meters
can be connected to a single module. When two 8-channel modules are connected to a 2-port radio or phone
interface unit, up to 16 meters can be read with one
AMR interface device.
