General discussion

I have Itron ACE6000 and I try to read data via serial port. I try to connect with default settings (with LLS low and password = ABCDEFGH ) but get access deny. I ask in energy company about password for access, but get answer that password for abonent don't change. Man from energy company say that exist few users for access: user for abonent (code = 15 ), user for readonly (code = ?? , looks like 7), user for laboratory (code = ??, looks like 3) and user for exploitation( code = ??, looks like 5) with their passwords. In energy company don't change passwword for user 'abonent' and I can read some data using this user with default password for this user (that man don't known default password).
Does anybody know something about these users for access and default passwords for them? Can anybody say how read data using guruxdlms and these users?

Hi,

Hi,

Have you try with settings like here:

Are you getting any reply from the meter? If you aren't, then the client or server address is wrong.
If your password is wrong, you should get an authentication error.

Hi,

Hi,

Try to connect with the read-only value that you received from the metering company. Set client address to 7 and try to make the connection.

Hi,

Hi,

Thanks for this info. Client and server addresses might be different in different countries or/and metering companies.
