Object MeterDatetime= grxComm.ReadObject(new GXDLMSClock("0.0.1.0.0.255"),
2);
**Result: Date = {3/17/2017 6:52:36 PM -05:30}
DateTime FromDate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-2);
DateTime ToDate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(2);
Client.Write("0.0.1.0.0.255", ToDate , DataType.DateTime, ObjectType.Clock,
2);
Client.Write("0.0.1.0.0.255", FromDate , DataType.DateTime, ObjectType.Clock,
5);
Client.Write("0.0.1.0.0.255", ToDate, DataType.DateTime, ObjectType.Clock,
6);

Object GetDatetime= grxComm.ReadObject(new GXDLMSClock("0.0.1.0.0.255"), 2);
**Result: Date = {1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM}

Note:
"ServiceError Write exception. Service Unsupported" exception occured when using this step
GXDLMSClock gxClock = new GXDLMSClock();
gxClock.Time=DateTime.Now.AddDays(5)
grxComm.Write(gxClock, 2);

Result : ServiceError Write exception. Service Unsupported.

Please let me know what may be wrong on my side.

How to write DateTime in HPL 3 Phase Meter

Hi,

If you want to write object back you can do it like this:
GXDLMSClock c = GXDLMSClock("0.0.1.0.0.255");
//Read data:
GXDateTime tm = (GXDateTime) grxComm.ReadObject(c, 2);
//Write time back.
byte[][] data = grxComm.WriteObject(c, 2);

Note!
You usually need to connect using authentication if you want to update data.
If you connect with Authentication.None, meter reply error.

BR,
Mikko
