Auto connect object is used to define how the meter will make a connection to the server.

This feature can be used with dynamic IP addresses when the meter IP address is unknown. The meter will establish the connection with a given interval to the reader service so the reader can read the meter when needed.

Properties

  • 1. Logical Name
    Logical name of the object.
  • 2. Mode
    Defines how device is making connection to the server.
  • 3. Repetitions
    How many times is try to connect to the server.
  • 4. Repetition delay
    How many seconds is waited before reconnect.
  • 5. Calling window
    Time window when device try to make connection to the server.
  • 6. Destination list
    Contains list of phone numbers, TCP/IP address, etc where connection is made.
