I am trying to connect to a Shenzhen CLOU meter with Director, the Director returns Failed to receive reply from the device in given time after a while.

This is the log:

Hi, Check your baud rate…

Hi,

Check your baud rate. Now it's 300, and I believe that your meter is using a higher baud rate. I believe that your parity is wrong. Create a new device with GXDSLMDirector, and change the interface type to HDLC try again.

BR,
Mikko
