Hi,

I'm trying to get data from Landis Gyr E550 via GXDLMSDirector but it gives me some errors.

With settings from the screen I'm getting "connection is permanently rejected. No reason is given".
I found similar problems and checked solutions so when I change "Use Logical Name Referencing" check box the outpu is "connection is permanently rejected. The app context name is not supported".
and with "use Max baud Rate" I'm getting same result as in first time "connection is permanently rejected. No reason is given".

Do you know what i might be doing wrong?

I've got one more question.

I've got one more question. If I change Authentication to Low or High, I could read more data? If yes, how to get password to it?

Hi,

Hi,

The password can be anything. You need to ask that from the meter vendor.

Ok, thank you. I was

Ok, thank you. I was thinking it will be the same password as I used when I was trying to connect to meter via python example but unfortunatelly not ;/ But I think for now I'm getting enough information from meter.
When comes to Python I saw there is an open subject with problems about "DisconnectRequest" which I got too, for now its not a problem. But here I want to ask just about reading data. I want to read "profileGeneric" which I can see in Gurux GXDLMSDirector. Have you got any example how to do it? Now I'm taking part of the register log. I need to read just choosen address or I can get object and then parse it and find profile which I need?

Hi,

Hi,

The password is the same. Change your client address. I believe it's the problem.

This DisconnectRequest is not happening with our meter and we have tried to repeat it. Are you running Python in Windows? Are you using an optical port or direct connection to the serial port?

Python client example reads profile generic. Check it.

Hi,

Hi,
Thanks now I see profile generic.

When comes to DisconnectRequest. I running it on Windows10 and using rs485 to usb.

Hmm it could be this about problem with client address. Default is 10 with no authentication and when I'm trying to change it to Low and set password which works with python the port is changing to 11. I change it to 32 as I'm passing in terminal when I running python then I check port 16 and still same effect ;/ I should change it to another value?

Hi,

Hi,

You must change the client address when you change the authentication level. Each authentication level has a different client address. If the client's address is wrong, the meter doesn't reply.
I can't remember Landis+Gyr low address right now but try with 17 (ox11).
