Hi,
I have this general doubt, will scalar change at any point if the value starts increasing.

For example : 7E A0 16 41 03 52 DD AA E6 E7 00 C4 01 81 00 02 02 0F FE 16 1B 12 7A 7E
In the above example scalar is 100. If values starts increasing, will it change.
If it wont change is it a good idea to extract all scalars and keep it in data base and just get values and multiply it on server side.

Thank You

Hi,

Hi,
If a value is changing it will not affect the scaler.

Values are saved and sent without a scaler on the meter. A client can read scaler and use it to multiply value if wanted.

BR,
Mikko
