Hi Mikko,

We are using latest stack and compiled successfully. When we try to pass Authentication key and Ciphered key, Below error getting.

Where as in DLMSExplorer we have selected ASCII checkbox and its working.Attached image for your reference

./bin/gurux.dlms.client.bin -S /dev/ttyUSB0 -c 48 -s 1 -a High -P "0000000001035820" -C "AuthenticationEncryption" -g "0.0.13.0.0.255:9" -v "0.0.43.1.3.255" -t "Verbose" -T "4142434445464748" -A "1234567890123456" -B "1234567890123456"
Invalid authentication key '1234567890123456'

If we pass as "31323334353637383930313233343536" we are getting the same error

Now in ANSI C how to send Authentication key and Block ciphere key?

Thanks
Mohan Raj

Hi,

Hi,

All ciphering keys are given as hex string. Try like this, without brackets:
-A 31323334353637383930313233343536
