Default Pictures of my gas meter, can it generate meter pulses?

What's that yellow cap on top of the dial readout for? maybe it is
hiding a set of contacts for meter pulses, that's what I really

want!

Thanks.


If you look on the underneath surface of the clear plastic box, there
will be a socket (possibly capped) if it can give pulses. IIRC they
don't give a contact closure as such, it's an 'open collector'
transistor switch.

Look here for cables:

awem



does anyone know if the remote display replicates the display on the actual
meter or does it start from zero and just count the pulses from then on?
