Postpaid Fixed MBus GSM GPRS
System Overview
- The HAT-WA-GSM is an I/O module specially designed for applications where the pulse/serial output of various metering devices need to be incorporated into a GSM network for creating cost effective data acquisition and AMR solutions.
- The output of corresponding meter is directly connected to IP65 protected AMR gadget, the running count of the consumption is stored in local memory, (Permanent Storage)
- An open, bi-directional and extensible infrastructure that uses low-cost devices to send and retrieve data from Meters.
- A high-reliability, fault-tolerant and proven network forms the backbone of the solutionSecure, Store and Forward mechanism ensures high data reliability, easy to install, capable of handing expanding network of meters with minimal latency.

The Meter AMR
The meter pulse sensor fits directly onto the meter index. It collects the pulses generated by index,passes to external AMR, where AMR monitors the energy count stores and supplies information to the server and the server provides Alerts / Alarming to authorized person along Billing dates for verification.
The AMR supports two types of Pulse sensing:
- 1. Magnetic Pulse
- 2. Inductive Pulse
Features and Functionalities

The Operating System - on Cloud
The Cloud computing service for The Operating System(OS), utilizes internet technology, allowing users to instantaneously access data via PC Terminal, smart phone, or tab.
The OS application software is installed on the server.
The utility supplier selects the parameters from the OS that he wishes to use, designing his application around his own requirements. The packages available cover the complete range of functionality from entering a new customer all the way through paying his bills online.
Access to the database is controlled via a security user name and password. There are five levels of security available, each has different limits as to what data can be viewed or changed.
