Error when transferring larger and segmented block for ImageTransfer class.

Forums
DLMSDirector

Hello,

I am implementing the ImageTransfer ( IC = 18 ) into a smart meter.

The problem I found in Gurux DLMS Director is with the codification of image_block_transfer method when the image_block_size does not fit into a single HDLC frame.

When using a larger block, i.e. 128 bytes, HDLC segmentation is ON and then the transmitted packet by Gurux is incorrect.

Consider the following packet:

Cannot Communicate with Hexing Electric Meter

Forums
DLMSDirector

Hello,

I am trying to connect to a HEXING HXE310-KP electric meter over serial (RS-485). I have a MAX 485 module connected via USB.

Despite using the initial settings as specified here, all attempts to connect fail with error message "Failed to receive reply from device in given time".

What could be the problem?

Parameters for the Landis + Gyr E450

Forums
DLMSDirector

Hello!!

I´m trying to read the Landis + Gyr E450. But I don´t know where to set the right parameters.
The meter is connected serial to the Gurux GXDLMSDirector Version 8.1.1901.1601 running on Win10 64Bit.
I got the authentication and the encyrption-key from my gridoperator, but no block cipher key.
Tell me if i´m wrong, but I think the system title are the first 8 symbols of the Meterserial.
In my case it would be: ZMXi320C

Mac Address Setup

Forums
DLMSDirector

I faced a message error in Mac Address Setup Object, when I try to edit Mac value in edit box of GXDLMSDirector. I compile and run last versions of GXDLMSDirector and Gurux.DLMS.c library and ServerExample.

When I write a value in edit box and do enter, a message error is display, before any other command. In sequence I attached a screenshot, translating message error to English we get something like: Cannot convert an object of type ‘System.String’ to type ‘System.Byte[]’.
