Problems with reset LoadProfile

By gpatane , 7 March, 2024

Good morning,

I have a problem when I try to delete meter loadprofile.
I try this on my vb.net application but i receive errors: "incorrect input string format":

Dim index As Integer = 1
Dim it As New GXDLMSScriptTable("0.0.10.0.0.255")
comm.Method(it, 1, index, DataType.UInt16)

I tried this too but receive the same error:

Dim scriptTable As New GXDLMSScriptTable("0.0.10.0.0.255")
Dim script As New GXDLMSScript()
script.Id = 1
scriptTable.Execute(comm.Client, script.Id)

Hi,

If you want to clear the profile generic buffer you can do it like this:

GXDLMSProfileGeneric pg = new GXDLMSProfileGeneric("OBIS_CODE");
var data = pg.Reset(comm.Client);

GXReplyData reply = new GXReplyData();
ReadDataBlock(data, reply);

I tried his suggestion but I always get the error "incorrect input string format"

In OBIS_CODE I specified "0.0.10.0.0.255"
where am I wrong?

I saw that the loadprofile code is 1.0.99.1.0.255 with SN 25200
if I run this code:

Dim pg As New GXDLMSProfileGeneric("1.0.99.1.0.255", 25200)
Dim data = pg.Reset(comm.Client)

Dim reply As New GXReplyData()
comm.ReadDataBlock(data, reply)

I get an error "Device reports Read-Write denied"

Hi Jack,

You need also to set the short name if your meter is using the short name referencing. Newer meters do not use short name referencing anymore.

Read the meter with GXDLMSDirector. Select Profile generic and "Method Access Rights" -tab. Check what is the access level. It might be that you need to connect using the high authentication level to reset the profile generic.

I think hight authentication…

I think hight authentication is required but I don't know the password which is definitely the factory one.
The meter is a Landis E650 model ZMD 410 CT

Hi Jack,

You need to ask for High Level Authentication password from the meter vendor. Without that, you can't connect to the meter and reset the buffer.
