Hi,
You have connected without the authentication (public client) and you can see only those values. Change the authentication level, set the password, and select "File" and "Refresh". Now you can see more objects.

Hi,

Before you can read anything, you need to establish the connection to the meter.

Check first that you can establish the connection for the meter. You need to change the client address, the authentication level and set the correct password.
Then read your register in com_readAllObjects. Something like this:

char* data = NULL;
gxRegister r;
cosem_init(BASE(r), DLMS_OBJECT_TYPE_REGISTER, "YOUR_OBIS_CODE");
com_read(BASE(r), 2);
obj_toString(BASE(r), &data);
GXTRACE(GET_STR_FROM_EEPROM("Register value"), data);
obj_clear(BASE(r));
free(data);
