Hello, i have a problem with a high authentication level password. In AssociationLogicalName object in director i clicked "Update high password". But I forgot to input new Secret... So I`m not able to connect to the meter with "Access error: Other reason" now. Old password is not valid now.
Do you have any ideas about what can i do to solve this problem?

Hi,

Hi,

We'll change this so the new password is asked before it's updated so this is not happening again.

Is your meter supporting GMAC authentication? If it's you can connect without a password and try to change the high-level password.

Can you connect using low-level authentication? Can you change the High-level password? If you can't then I believe that the only way to solve this is if you reset the meter to the factory settings.

BR,
Mikko

Thanks, the meter must

Thanks, the meter must support GMAC, but i did not check how it works yet. With the low auth i can change low password only. Since this is a test device, the easiest way is reset the meter.

Hi,

Hi,

Yes, it's the easier way. This is changed for the next version of GXDLMSDirector so it's harder to write invalid data.

BR,
