Smart Automatic Meter Reading and Installation

The utility industry is moving quickly to adopt smart meters and automatic meter reading (AMR) technologies, which bring cost savings and improved efficiency. Getac rugged computers bring you a solution for both smart meter installation and automatic meter reading that combines the features needed to deliver these benefits.

Fast and Accurate Readings

Using automatic meter reading has two benefits for utility companies; it improves accuracy compared to manual data entry, and increases worker productivity by increasing the speed of reading, allowing workers to do more readings per day. Getac works with our application partners to deliver an automatic meter reading system/AMR capable of revolutionizing the way you serve your customers.

DRIVE BY AUTOMATIC METER READING WITH WI-FI, 4G LTE AND RFID TABLETS

Our rugged tablets and laptops support Wi-Fi and RFID options to make drive-by automatic meter reading a fast and efficient experience. Our solution for smart meter reading and installation offers options with dedicated GPS, 4G LTE mobile broadband, RFID, IEEE 802.11ax Wi-Fi, and pass-through antenna ports for connectivity to support high-gain GPS, WWAN, and WLAN roof-mounted antennas.

Highly Readable Safety Checklists

To comply with legal standards and ensure occupational safety is high, professionals often need to go through safety checklists and check manuals. Our LumiBond®2.0 technology delivers improved touch control and provides a display that is highly readable in areas with very different luminosity levels, providing optimal access to these critical materials.

One-Handed Operation with Digitizer Pen for Digital Record-Keeping

The best automatic meter reader options are the ones that streamline and simplify data collection and record-keeping. By adopting a digital solution that can send data wirelessly, utilities achieve increased efficiency and faster response times because information is available to management in real-time. Our digitizer pen (optional) and stylus also help replace pen and paper for record-keeping, while the devices’ cameras render many verbal descriptions unnecessary, thus making data easier to capture and transfer.
