I have a doubt about this dlms library.If I install this library using pip install gurux-dlms how I fetch the values. Now I am downloaded from github and directly running the main.py in the example folder.And also what is the usage of push ,client example in this library.I never saw any documentation about this library.I am creating an application and want to integrate this library like normal library.How will I do that?

Hi,

Hi,

DLMS meters are different and you need to know what meter you want to read. Download the client example:

https://github.com/Gurux/Gurux.DLMS.Python/tree/master/Gurux.DLMS.Clien…

You can try with parameters:

python main.py -S YOUR_SERIAL_PORT

I strongly propose that you download the GXDLMSDirector first and play with it to get a better idea of DLMS meters.

I already tried this

I already tried this parameter I am asking that in disconnection control we calling that class and functions like that we can independently use the library for voltage ,current etc.

Hi,

Hi,

You can add this like a normal library. I strongly propose that you use Gurux.DLMS.Client.Example.python as a base project because there are a lots of methods how to send generated bytes to the meter, etc.
