Hi Mikko,
the inactivity time which is declared in the IEC_HDLC_SETUP is not working on mycase.
when there is no data receiving after given time is completed it has to send DM(Disconnect mode)message instead of keep send alive?(If I am wrong please help me how to implement this INACTIVITY time).
In mycase : T_HDLC_FRAME_P3 this test case is failed meter is not sending DM message.

Hi,

Hi,

If inactivity timeout has passed you shouldn't return any data or you can return DM.

Hi,

Hi,

If you are using our stack this is already implemented. You need just add IEC HDLC setup object. Check addIecHdlcSetup-method.

Hi,

Hi,

The meter will close the connection If you don't read anything from the meter in 2 mins.
Note! There is an inactivity timeout value in device settings in the Advanced tab. Change that to zero or
GXDLMSDirector is keeping the connection up.

BR,
Mikko
