DLMSDirector

Greetings to all.
I would like to ask for help to connect and read an A1800 Elster meter with the GXDLMSDirector Tool. I already have the physical connection made, but I cannot find the appropriate configuration with the GXDLMSDisrector to access the information.

I have reviewed in the forum some spaces that deal with the subject, but they do not define a configuration to make the reading from GXDLMSDirector with the Elster A1800 as described with other meters in https://www.gurux.fi/GXDLMSDirectorExample.

I would appreciate the collaboration of the community on this issue.

Hi,

Hi,

Select Elster Electricity as a manufacturer and give it a try. DLMS is an option for A1800 and all meters don't support it.

Greetings Mikko.

Greetings Mikko.
I tried with the initial configuration that GXDLMSDirector shows me when I select Elster Electricity LLC, and I am trying to connect through Net. But, it did not give me a connection and later I made some variations in:
Start Protocol: DLMS, IEC.
Authentication: None, Low, High.
LN: Check, Uncheck.
ASCII: Check, Uncheck.
I still haven't been able to connect to the A1800 meter.
I would appreciate your support please.

Hi,

Hi,

If you can't make the connection check your IP address and port number. Also, make sure that your version is supporting DLMS.

BR,
Mikko
