6 Stored Data System Integrity and Security The system must ensure data integrity security (so that the readings from the meters, ID numbers, and other data are always associated with the correct meter and customer) and data access security. The system must ensure against loss of stored data. Describe how the system addresses these issues. Tamper Detection The system shall contain tamper detection capability which, when the meter, MIU, or any wiring between components has been tampered with (cut wire, tilting of meter, etc.), shall cause a tamper message to be indicated when the MIU transmits its data. Indicate what different kinds of tamper are detected. [COMPANY] desires the system to communicate to the control computer upon tamper. Indicate how quickly tampering with each component will be reported and how it will be reported. How many times or over what period will a tamper indication be provided to the DCUs or to the system operator before it is automatically cancelled? Indicate whether the tamper indication must be reset or reprogrammed, and how this is accomplished. Unauthorized Usage Detection The system should give an indication of unauthorized usage; that is, when the customer account record indicates that a customer's service has been shut off, the system will flag and specifically report any unauthorized usage. Describe this capability, if available. Leak Detection The system should monitor water consumption through the meter and specifically indicate if there is an abnormal increase in water consumption, if there is no time interval (e.g., at night) when the rate of consumption is zero, or if there is a "running continuously" condition. Leak- detection alerts must be triggered and transmitted the moment an event is triggered. Describe any capacity to detect leaks for different flow rates. No-Flow Detection The system should indicate when there is an extended period (e.g., ten [10] days) of no flow through the meter or an unusually low consumption over a regular reading interval. Indicate how this is accomplished. Other Detection Features List other conditions (for example, reverse flow or backflow) that the system can detect. Describe these capabilities and how they are accomplished. Additional Features Describe any additional capabilities of the proposed system, such as remote-controlled shutoff or turn-on, pressure monitoring, etc. Describe specific third-party sensors or controllers that are supported in addition to the automated meter reading (AMR) devices and their capabilities. Include any deployments of such devices, including the number of units installed, in the References section of the proposal. Data Transfer to Control Computer Indicate the proposed mode of data transfer between the LoRaWAN collectors. Read Success Rate Proposer shall price in its proposal and provide a sufficient number of LoRaWAN collectors to provide redundant read capacity (minimum of being able to communicate with two [2] or more
