METER ELECTRONICS FOR 5 --- 10b 5b A '' .., SL — 4 9 7b e l 4 TWO OR MORE 11b 4,--- 7a ... 4 ( , fr, FIG. 1 METER ASSEMBLIES 26 27a lla 10a ir 11 *\"-- 5a (57) : A meter electronics (100) for two or more meter assemblies (10a, 10b). The meter electronics (100) includes a processor (110) and one or more signal processors (120) commu- nicatively coupled to the processor (110). The one or more signal pro- cessors (120) are configured to commu- 27 bnicatively couple to a first meter as (10a) and a second meter as- sembly (10b). Accordingly, only one meter electronics can be employed to control the two or more meter assem- blies, which may reduce the costs asso- ciated with employing two meter elec- tronics.
