Hi,

I've an existing Actaris Electricity meter system, that was installed by another firm so I've got only few information. I'm trying to listen into the communication throught the serial port and I see that the SNRM request is like this:
7E A0 0A 00 22 00 CB 03 93 69 CE 7E

I'd like to use GXDLMSClient to read data from the meters, but if I set the parameters like this:
GXDLMSClient client = new GXDLMSClient();
client.UseLogicalNameReferencing = true;
client.InterfaceType = InterfaceType.HDLC;
client.ClientAddress = 1;
client.ServerAddress = GXDLMSClient.GetServerAddress(17, 101);
client.ServerAddressSize = 4;

I send the SNRM request like this:
7E A0 0A 00 00 22 CB 03 93 55 0E 7E

Why is 22 value of the 4 sized server address is different?
What is the right way to handle this proble?

Hi HorCsa,

Server address is problem with older meters. What meter you try to read?
