The APT-VERTI-1 communication module is an RF intermediate transmission device to communicate between RF data output meter modules and a meterreading collector's app installed on a mobile device. The primary function of the communication module is to convert the data signals between an RF interface operating in the ISM 868 MHz band and a Bluetooth/USB interface. The communication module is controlled by the meter-reading collector's app installed on a mobile device, and listens for and receives spontaneous T1 mode RF data frames. It can also read configuration data in the two-way T2 mode. The communication module is the next-generation of data converter, featuring an extremely sensitive radio receiver and a data reading success rate much higher than possible with legacy data converters. This enables the reading of metering data via the APT-VERTI-1 much faster and at a greater distance from the data transmitter.
The APT-VERTI-1 communication module transfers readings from Apator Powogaz brand metering devices, including water meters, heat meters and heat cost allocators in remote meter reading collector systems (operated in walk-by or drive-by modes). The communication module supports RF devices that transmit over a Wireless M-Bus to a collector app installed on a mobile device (such as a smartphone or tablet).
