Hi,

First, make sure that your SIM has a static IP address.

If you can connect for you your meter using serial or optical port you can read the IP address from IPv4 setup or IPv6 setup objects.

Hi,

It's the IP address. Check IPv6 settings, because you usually can't edit the IP address for GPRS connections. The GPRS network assigns an IP address.

Don't add images. They don't tell anything and plain text is easier to read.

What parameters you have used?

Hi,

You need to add the TCP/IP port number. Something like -p 4059.
You can get the port number from the TcpUdpSetup.

Hi,

This is a socket error. Verify that your IP address is correct and that you can access your meter from your IP address. You need to verify this from your GPRS operator.

Hi,

There is something wrong with your connection.

First, make sure that your SIM has a static IP address. If it has a dynamic IP address you can't establish the connection for the meter.

Hi Kevin, This is TCP/IP…

Hi Kevin,

This is TCP/IP issue. Your TCP/IP connection fails for some reason.

1. Check your IP address and port number.
2. Check that there aren't firewalls that block the messages.
