Hi Mikko,

We are trying to download profilegeneric data from meter using ANSI C library. At point DLMS stack is getting struck at getCount function . Attached Tx and Rx log also the function call history.
For your information , meter is working with GuruxDLMSExplorer

Hi,

Meter returns the wrong frame length. Max PDU size is 137 bytes and meter returns more than 500 bytes. You need to fix this.

Hi Mikko,

please suggest us where this has to be fixed?

Is it in meter firmware?
I do not think. Because GXDLMSDirector is working properly.

If it is in our application please tell us where and how?

Thanks

Hi Mohanraj,

Yes, this is in meter firmware. The reason why GXDLMSDirector works is that it doesn't care how much memory is allocated. ANSI C version allocates only the needed amount of memory.

You can fix this to the client side if you change this line:
//Allocate 50 bytes more because some meters count this wrong and send few bytes too many.
con_initializeBuffers(connection, 50 + connection->settings.maxPduSize);

Change 50 to 500 and you can read your meter.

Hi Mikko,

Thank you for the suggestion. working after changing the buffer size at client side.

Hi,

I have to point out that this is only a fast fix. This should be fixed for the meter or it might cause problems later.
