5. 1 Description of functions The Falcon M Bus makes it possible to read out Elster water meters having a Falcon register in an M Bus system To accomplish this an attachment is mounted onto an appropriately prepared water meter The volume pulses will be summed by the Fal con M Bus to a volume meter count PR6 PR7 Falcon communications module Once the meter count has been parameterised via the M Bus the Falcon M Bus will transfer the exact meter count shown on the water meter s drum type register The free program MBCONF can be used for parameterisation Because of its intuitive user interface MBCONMF is very simple to use Another feature of the Falcon M Bus is its reporting date function The user can pro gram an annual reporting date In conjunction with the unit s real time clock with cal endar function the meter s current meter count will be specially stored on the config ured date at 00 00 change of day to the reporting date The reporting date can be changed without losing the previous reporting date s meter count A write protect function prevents pre set values from being altered More information about this can be found in the Falcon M Bus protocol When operated on the M Bus the Falcon derives its power from the M Bus A built in battery backs up operation even when the M Bus has an outage failure The battery is already activated when the unit is delivered The Falcon M Bus stores the meter count on the first day of
