Enter the reading and press the “Enter” button. If you wish to skip the manual read, press the “C” key.
When you have completed entries for this meter, press the “S” (Skip) button. It returns the Badger-Radix to the read screen in automatic mode.
Clearing a Tamper
If a Badger ORION transmitter reports a tamper condition, you must perform maintenance on the unit to clear the tamper condition. Once the condition that caused the tamper is cleared, the unit must be reprogrammed if it is connected to a Badger Recordall® Transmitter Register (RTR®) using the ORION programming tool. If the Badger ORION transmitter is connected to a position-based encoder like Badger Meter’s Absolute Digital Encoder (ADE®), no programming is required. Successfully resetting the odometer value will clear the tamper report. Please refer to the Badger ORION PROGRAMMER section for more information.
Switching to Manual Mode Meter Reading
The Badger-Radix switches from automatic to manual mode when the “A” key is pressed or an action by the meter reader is required. For example:
•The Badger-Radix will switch to manual mode when the meter reader uses the hotkey function on the keypad, such as a search, or to enter a trouble code or comment code.
•The Badger-Radix will automatically switch to manual mode when the next unread meter is a manually read meter or a touch-type meter.
The read screen for manual mode looks like this.
