Metercam

The Metercam is used with electromechanical (rotating disk) meters. It is a digital
disk sensor without the many drawbacks of most photoelectric sensors, such as
difficulty in aligning properly and sensitivity to light. With the Metercam, no
alignment is necessary since it detects and picks up the disk by itself. Another feature
is its electronic shutter, which makes it impervious to light variations, including bright
sunlight.
The Metercam is built around a miniature digital camera with a ½" field view
combined with a RISC processor that detects the meter disk's position and
automatically locks onto the reference point (black flag).
The Metercam is mounted on four suction cups installed directly on the back.
For a secure and lengthy hold, lightly moisten the inside of the suction cups,
especially when field testing in colder weather. Also, keep the inside of the suction
cups clean.

Note: A side-mount Metercam is available for electromechanical meters with a
hidden disk.
