Our solution is…
Remote Energy Consumption Acquisition Processing System
RECAPS

RECAPS- Qualities
• Counts S0-pulse
• Picture of counter
• OCR of picture
• Alarm monitoring
• Radio supports operation
using PLC
• Operation of relay
• Temperature reading
• Feedback when change of state
(relay)
• Software upgrading via radio
• Direct reading of digital meters
The Concept - Conserve the existing equipment
• Optical recognition of mechanical meter value (e.g. per hour)
• Pulse readings for S0 interfaces
The communication network is common for all methods of capturing meter values

Radio
• Industrial radio module– Modulation:
• D2PSK (default)
– Frequency : 60 – 90 MHz (Norway)
– 30 MHz – 2,4 GHz by changing the analog module
– Transmitting power• Class A : 2 W• Class B : 200 mW• Class C : 20 mW
CECAPS
• Concentrator (collecter) for 500 - 2000 RECAPS in a geographical area
• Rout`s traffic from RECAPS radio network to data center
• Collects information regarding:temperaturequality of voltagestate of relay
radio statistics
• Communicates using WLAN, LAN, GSM, GPRS, PSTN or other ways to reach the data center

Data base
C3I data center
• Central data system for management, readings and radio network.
• Secure and transaction oriented platform
• Extendable for millions of RECAPS
• All readings are stored for further use
• Export of data to external CIS-systems
• Quality assurance
ICE monitoring and control
• Central application software for monitoring and supervision over the network.
• Integrated GIS
• System messages are been displayed in ICE
• Development schemes are made in ICE

Utility
Every household with installed RECAPS® creates a network. And the data has been transmitted through the network.
RECAPS®
must be connected to 220-240V, which also functions as an antenna.
How to make information available for buyer and seller
SCART module
The TV screen can show information regarding:
• consumption of gas
• hour by hour
• latest 24 hour
• latest week, month or quarter
The TV-screen becomes the utilities information channel to the public.
The Concept
• Flexible system
• Handles several million units
• Considerable low communication costs
