Push Setup object is used to define objects that are sent at the given time.
Push objects can be use to schedule meter to send data.
Properties
-
1. Logical Name
Logical name of the object.
-
2. Push object list
List of objects that are send in push message.
DLMS standard doesn't define the content of the push object list. It's good to add Logical Device Name as a first parameter so you can identify the meter.There are two different ways to describe content of the push messages. Adding push object list to push object list meter client will always know the content of the push message. Other possibility add Logical Name of the push object to the push object list. If this information doesn't exists, parsing the data is not possible when multiple push messages are sent.
Size of the data is smaller if Logical name is added, but client application must know the content of the push object list. Size is larger if push object list is added to push object, but client will always know what kind of data meter is sending. -
3. Send destination and method
How the push object is sent and where. This depends on how the meter is configured. With some meters, there might be TCP/IP address where push messages are sent. Some meters can send push messages only using the active connection.
