Hi Everyone. I want to know, if someone can help me to know how I can read this Obis Codes using Gurux Python Library:
C.51.1 Event terminal cover opened - counter
C.51.2 Event terminal cover opened - timestamp
C.51.3 Event main cover opened - counter
C.51.4 Event main cover opened - timestamp
This corresponds to group C, D, and E of the obis code for events, according to IEC and Itron Manufacturer. But when I try to read it, with Gurux Library it show me a error that the Obis Code doesn't comply with the appropriate structure. The library read Letters how part of the Obis Code? or not?. It's the case, can someone help me please to identify which is the value equivalent for this C in the obis code for read that obis. Or, maybe is a different Object to one that I'm trying to read, I try to read this Obis how GXData y GXRegister.
I appreciate the support that can give me.

Hi,

Hi,

Your OBIS codes are old OBIS codes that are using in text mode. Read your meter with GXDLMSDIrector.
It reads an association view that describes all the functionality that meter can offer.
In DLMS there is 6 dotted separated values in OBIS code.

BR,

Mikko
