Hi kurumi,

I am facing an issue in writing time to Landis Gyr E650 meter using high authentication.
The meter is in Indian standard,
client address: 48(x30)
logical server: 1
Authentication: HIGH
I have checked the password with the manufacturer and I am using the right one.

NOTE: I am able to read all values and to write transformer ratio.

Clock object is having Read/Write access but its showing- "Access Error:Other reason." while I am trying to write time from the application.

Hi,

Now I can't remember do you need to set ms to Zero in Gyr E650. Not it's not used. deviation looks strange. What is your timezone?

Hi,

Try to select "current time zone" and try to write again. You can see the time zone of the meter if you read the clock object.

BR,

Hi,

The access right for time zone is "No Access". so I am not able to see time zone on reading the clock object.

In Clock object only attribute "Time" is having Read/Write Access, all other attributes (except "logical name") are having "No access" in access rights , so I am not able to see those values.

Hence, I am not able to select " Current Time zone " also.

Note: Time attribute is having Read/Write access in clock object.

Hi,

On changing access right for time zone from "No Access" to Read/Write and reading the clock object,
It shows an error "Access Error: Device reports Read-Write Denied" for time zone and its Access right is changes automatically to "No Access"

NOTE: I have tried this several times, at some moment it shown a value = 32768, just in one attempt.
In all other attempts before and after is showing error. Only one time some how I got that value. I am not sure whether it is right or a random value.

I couldn't find any values except for that one try.
thanks,

Hi,

I believe that your meter is configured not to use time zone and not it returns an error if time-zone is used.

I need to think how we can handle this in GXDLMSDirector.

Hi,

I am not sure on this doubt, But here Reading response value from meter is 07E20C0CFF111215FF800000
and Writing value is 07E20C0C03111901FFFEB600 in Landis Gyr where I am facing issue in writing.

The starting of value '07E20C0C03111' is same for read and write of another meter in which I am able to write time without any issue.

In Landys Gyr also we are having same start value(07E20C0C03111) for writing but the start value of Read response is different(07E20C0CFF111), So my doubt is that ,are we trying to pass a value which cannot be accepted by meter.

what does this value specifies, how it contains data, Will it carries time zone, base clock, other details with time..?

I don't know whether this will make any sense, Sorry if I am mentioning it wrongly.

Hi,

Your data shows that client app doesn't use time-zone on write. I don't know why because our L+G meters don't behave like this. I'll think how we can skip time zone in write if needed.

Hi,
Thanks for the support.
I have skipped ms,deviation, Day of week from time value, and now I am able to write the time in LG E650.

Hi
I am facing similar kind of issue. How do we skip the timezone in DLMSDirector while setting the time.

Thanks

Hi Shanthi,

Can this meter handle time zone in date-time at all or is this problem only when setting the clock?

BR,

The meter can handle timezone from attribute 3, but it does not accept timezone while setting the time. In short deviation should be 0x8000 and clock status should be 0xFF.

Hi Shanthi,

Get the latest version from GXDMSDirector. Select Advanced -tab from device settings.
Then select "Ignore Time Zone" and "Ignore Time Status".

Deviation and status are skipped as you needed.
