DLMSDirector

I have an Elgama 300 G3A.144 meter, and i try to use GXDLMSDirector to read the serial number start with 0 using start protocol IEC, however the GXDLMSDirector will auto remove the first 0, could you please advise how to enter the S/N with starting 0 ?

Hi,

Hi,

Even leading zero is removed from the UI, it's used when the server address is counted.

Sorry, I am not understand

Sorry, I am not understand what mean by server address is counted.

Do you mean that if we would like to maintain the serial number started with zero, we need to disable the server address ?

If yes, then how I am disable or do not count for server address ?

This is because my meter require the full serial number started with zero in IEC protocol. Please help & Thanks.

Hi,

Hi,

So you are using an optical probe. We'll modify this, so leading zero is added for IEC.

BR,
