ITRON ACE6000 and SL7000 Access Denied

DLMSDirector

Hello,
I'm trying to use DLMSDirector to discover what is available on the meters ACE6000 and SL7000. It's my first time trying DLMS protocol.

I manage to successfully connect to the meter, and get the serial number / manufacturer name.

HDLC, logical name referencing

Client address : 1
Auth : Low
Password : ABCDEFGH
Logical server : 1
Physical server : 17 (or 0x11) - works as well with 0x3FFF
Media : Net
IP, Host, checked Use serial port throught Ethernet.

The thing is, every time i try to request 1.1.1.29.0.255, I get access denied.
But no other auth protocol are authorized from what I tested so I don't know.

I'll probably do a python script after I get all the parameters right but for now if you have any idea what could cause the problem.

Thank you,
Thomas

As well, i'm not able to use the discovery fonctionnality when I add a new meter : if i click ok, with low auth, it runs during a long time, with errors messages and I get nothing at the end / DLMSDirector is crashed.

Hi Thomas, I believe that…

Hi Thomas,

I believe that your Logical name or object type is wrong.
Can you see 1.1.1.29.0.255 in the association view if you read the association view established connection to the meter?

If you are using client example you can save the association view to the file using -o ACE6000.xml

Connection is faster because the association view is read from the file if it exists.
Can you find 1.1.1.29.0.255 in the file? If you can't check the logical name (OBIS code). If it is there, check the object type that you try to read.

BR,
Mikko
