Where do I enter the Meter Information?

The meter information can be entered in two places: from the Meter tab of the Database or the Meter tab of the
Access Group.

Both windows have the same information, except that the Access Group window is where you can

send the meter information to the recorder. The following illustration describes the Meter tab on the Database

Access window and Access location window.
