Gurux.DLMS

Hi Mikko,
I am using the example main.py to read the meter.
(Located in Gurux.DLMS.Python-master\Gurux.DLMS.Python-master\Gurux.DLMS.Client.Example.python)

Is there an example for Set and Action also?

Many Thanks
Frank

Hi Frank,

Hi Frank,

Use GXDLMSReader.write for set. Actions are in the object. You can use them like this:
reply = GXReplyData()
dc = GXDLMSDisconnectControl("YOUR_OBIS_CODE")
self.readDataBlock(dc.remoteDisconnect(self.client), reply)

Mikko

Hi Mikko,

Hi Mikko,
thanks for your answer. think i didnt make myself understood.
I am using the main.py and the corresponding options to read out the meter.
The question is, if you have a main.py but for action and write.
If not, how can i modify the main.py in order to to this job.
Many Thnaks
Frank

Hi,

Hi,

It's not possible to write or call the action from the command line because parameters might be anything and this is a simple example.

It might be possible to add write for simple data types like UInt8, etc, but writing complex data types is hard.

I need to think about this a little bit.

Mikko

Mikko,
the reason behind this is:
I want to use the disconnect control from the command line and not from the GUI.
Is there another easy way to do that
Many Thanks
Frank

Hi,

Hi,

The easiest way is if you modify the client example for your needs. The future release of GXDLMSDirector allows running macros from the command prompt. So you can record different macros and run them. But that is released in February.
