Issue with KWH Value Reading Using Gurux DLMS Library.

DLMSDirector

Hello Gurux Team,

We are currently facing an issue while reading meter data using the Gurux DLMS libraries.

In the field, some meters display six-digit KWH values (for example, 987654.32). However, when we fetch the value from the meter using GXDLMSDirector, we receive only five digits (for example, 87654.32).

The meter display shows the correct six-digit value, but the response appears to be skipping the first digit in the reading.

Please let us know if you require any additional logs, OBIS codes, or sample responses from our side to investigate this issue.

Thanks in advance for your support.

Regards,
Bhanu

Hi Bhanu, Gurux DLMS library…

Hi Bhanu,

Gurux DLMS library doesn't remove anything. At first, make sure you read the same register that is used with the display.

BR,
Mikko
