Elster A1500

Hi,

Elster A1500 is using IEC 62056-21. You can't read that with DLMS.
You can find more info from here:

Hello again. Thanks for the answer:
Is this mean "There is no way read with Gurux library"?

Hi Fatih,

Yes, we are not supporting IEC 62056-21.
You must ask this from manufacturer.

Hello, I am trying to read out Elster meter, using IEC 62056-21. I use standard configuration for the serial port but the meter never returns anything. Does anyone has any experience with this matter?
