Serial over TCP/IP connection to meter

Gurux DLMS for Java

Hello,

I am trying to connect to a remote smart meter that can only communicate via serial. Therefore I need to establish a TCP/IP connection and send over a request in serial format over this connection. For now I just need a simple example that would establish the connection and get an association view or just the value form the clock.

In the gurux library it seems like the GXNet and GXSerial are entirely separate so I am unsure if this is possible. Can anyone give me some pointers on how to achieve this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Try first with GXDLMSDirector.
Ensure you have configured your TCP/IP to serial port converter to use the same baud rate as the meter.

After you have established the connection with the GXDLMSDirector, you can easily make an application you want.

BR,
Mikko
