Applications Selection

The CNI2 has several modes of operation. It can serve as a data logger for pulse-counting and
alarm sensing applications, a transparent modem to allow the host system to communicate with
an external piece of equipment, or as a short-message-service (SMS) modem.

Metretek SIP

® ®
When the CNI2 calls into the data collection system (DC-2009 or MV90 ) it will identify itself as
a Metretek "SIP" data logger. In this mode the CNI2 serves as a data logger for pulse-counting
and alarm sensing applications and uses the legacy Metretek communications protocol. The
term "SIP" refers to a Metretek data logger called a Survey Instrument Point.
® ®
DC-2009 supports both CSD and IP (internet) communications with the CNI2. MV90 ) only
supports CSD connections (see next topic).

Metretek SIP via InvisiConnect

®
MV90 does not support internet connections with Metretek "SIP" devices. To accomplish this it
® ®
is necessary to install another software product called "InvisiConnect ". InvisiConnect acts as
a modem emulator and a transparent "bridge" to the internet. In this case you should select
"Metretek SIP via InvisiConnect" from the pull-down list.
®
The CNI2 contacts the InvisiConnect server first. Data is then transferred between
® ®
InvisiConnect and the MV90 system as though the connection was occurring over a wired
phone (CSD) connection.
