The document summarizes a tool created by the author to remotely monitor up to 50 smart meter data collectors simultaneously. The tool logs into each collector via telnet, records debugging data, and monitors performance metrics over time. This enabled accelerated testing, diagnosis, and repair of issues causing collectors to reboot sporadically. With improved reliability, the utility saw 99.5% of smart meters reporting daily, allowing payments to resume and the company to become profitable for the first time. Management recognized the tool's value in improving product quality and supported continuing its development.
