4 / 29 Safety Precautions Precautions The EVOGate 2.0 with RTU+® Server2 has been designed and tested with US norms and has left the factory in a safe condition. The present installation manual contains important information and warnings which have to be followed by the user to ensure safe operation and to retain the unit in safe condition. Interventions Any interventions to the EVOGate 2.0 with RTU+® Server2 must be done by technical service staff only. Note + Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the responsible party for compliance (EnergyICT®) could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. Clock The device contains a real-time clock with 6 day autonomy in case of absence of power. WARNING! When activating the Wavenis modem, an RF antenna must already be connected to the EVOGate 2.0! The absence of an antenna during activation will cause irreparable damage to the modem. Consult “Wavenis RF Modem” on page 27 for more information.
5 / 29 Notice on Interference FCC The EVOGate 2.0 complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules / Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Class B digital device This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003. Use of radio frequency energy This device generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. Preventing interference If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: + Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna + Increase the distance between the equipment and the receiver + Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. + Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Notice on Industry Canada (IC) certification Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication. This radio transmitter (IC: 9864A-RTUS2WC) has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device Antenna type used for certification measurements : Antenex FG9026 Antenna specs: - Frequency range : 902 – 928 MHz - VSWR : < 1.5:1 Max - Nominal Gain : 6 dBd - Nominal impedance : 50 Ohm - Polarization : vertical

7 / 29 About the EVOGate 2.0 Description The EVOGate 2.0 is positioned as the generic ODM Water solution for utility applications in the United States. EVOGate 2.0’s main component is the RTU+ Server2 concentrator; which is built around a core feature set and is provided with a robust casing. The RTU+ Server2 is installed inside the EVOGate 2.0’s IP enclosure resisting easily to any industrial environment. The RTU+ Server2 also offers unprecedented upstream and downstream flexibility and splits expensive communication over multiple endpoints, allowing utilities to optimize the implementation of various AMI technologies. Main functions The table below lists the main functions of the RTU+ Server2: Function Description Data collection Data is collected and stored per definable interval period; the device is able to store a virtually unlimited amount of data, depending on its memory capacity. For more information on memory capacity, see “Technical Specifications” on page 10. Pulse data is collected via the digital inputs and meter data is collected via the standard serial interface or via an optional communication interface. Data transfer The RTU+ Server2 can transfer data to EnergyICT’s advanced EIServer meter data management solution using the EIWebp+ push protocol, via its Ethernet ports, or via an optional communication interface. Fixed network management and remote monitoring The RTU+ Server2 has embedded network management capability and serves as master concentrator in a Wavenis RF network, with multiple Wavenis endpoints acting as slaves. For more information, see “Wavenis RF Modem” on page 27.

Double Ethernet connectors G. RF Wavenis antenna connector C. Wired M-Bus connector (Not Applicable) H. Digital inputs (Not Applicable) D. SIM-card interface I. Digital outputs (Not Applicable) E. GSM/GPRS antenna connector J. RS-485 connector (Not Applicable)
26 / 29 Double Ethernet Connection Description The RTU+ Server2 uses the Ethernet 10/100 Base-T standard. Every unit features 2 standard Ethernet ports, as depicted below, and can be connected to a LAN network using standard straight-through LAN RJ-45 connectors. Link Integrity and Rx indication LEDs are located on the connector. To make a direct connection to a PC, a crossover LAN cable should be used. Double USB 2.0 Host Connection Description The RTU+ Server2 uses the USB 2.0 standard. Every unit features 2 standard USB interfaces, as depicted below, next to the Ethernet ports. Both connections can, for example, be used to connect keyboards and memory sticks for software updates. IMPORTANT USB ports may exclusively be used for service purposes. A maximum of 50 mA is allowed. USB devices must be removed during normal operation.
27 / 29 GSM/GPRS Modem Description This card equips the RTU+ Server2 with a high tech GSM/GPRS modem. This allows collected data to be transmitted over the Internet without a need for a fixed connection. Note + The advanced GSM/GPRS EDGE modem is available on request: this technology offers increased data transmission speeds and is supported by all major providers. Installation In order to function, the GSM/GPRS modem requires a SIM-card. This SIM-card has to be placed inside a SIM-card holder A and placed inside B on the modem itself, before switching on the RTU+ Server2. Next, the GSM-antenna has to be screwed into C. Press D to eject the SIM-card holder. Technical specifications Feature Implementation Frequency Bands Quad-band module includes support for GSM 850 and PCS 1900 Compliant to GSM Phase 2/2+ Transmit Power Class 1 (1W) at GSM 850 and PCS 1900 GPRS Connectivity GPRS multi-slot class 10 GPRS mobile station class B Temperature Range Normal operation: -20°C to +60°C GPRS GPRS data downlink transfer: max. 85.6 kbps GPRS data uplink transfer: max. 42.8 kbps Coding scheme: CS-1, CS-2, CS-3 and CS-4 SIM Interface Supported SIM card: 1V8, 3V B C A D
28 / 29 Wavenis RF Modem Description This module empowers the RTU+ Server2 to serve as master in a Wavenis RF network. Wavenis is an integrated wireless communication application capable of high performance network management and 2-way endpoint monitoring, remote data collection and scheduled polling. Communication management for extended networks is achieved via smart gateways, repeaters and end-points. Stored data is uploaded to EIServer via EnergyICT’s proprietary EIWeb+ protocol. The RF module is embedded at the factory. Important!: • The Wavenis RF antenna and coax cable need to be ordered separately! EnergyICT recommends the Antenex FG9026 as this was used for the FCC / IC tests. • When activating the Wavenis modem, an RF antenna must already be connected to the EVOGate 2.0! The absence of an antenna during activation will cause irreparable damage to the modem. Consult the Appendix for more information. Antenna connection Technical specifications Feature Implementation Frequency range 915 MHz Output power Maximum +27 dBm (500 mW) Receiver sensitivity (-110)dBm @ 19.2 kbps (-113)dBm @ 4.8 kbps Channels 16 channels (hopping) Data rate Maximum: up tot 100 kbps Range Outdoor: up to 1000 meters (line-of-sight) Wavenis Antenna Connector
