Hi Mikko,
I am having a connection issue with this meter (Identification: IHM5\2Inhe Meder). The SNRM frame (03 03) is correct and works fine in other software.
The communication log reveals the exact problem during the IEC Mode E handshake:
1. Gurux sends the baud rate change command: 06 32 35 32 0D 0A
2. Gurux closes and reopens the COM port to change settings from 7E1 to 8N1 (takes ~110ms).
3. The Bug: After reopening the port, Gurux waits exactly 1000ms before sending the SNRM request:
• Log: 13:40:35.502 Info Open
• Log: 13:40:36.510 Sent 7E A0 07 03 03 93 8C 11 7E
4. This 1-second delay is too long for the meter. It times out and returns to sleep mode.
InactivityTimeout and FrameDelay are already set to 0.
Is there a hidden parameter or a way to eliminate this hardcoded 1000ms delay after the port reopen, so the SNRM can be sent immediately?
Best regards,
Frank

Hi, This one second works…

Hi,

This one second works with most meters, and it's not currently configurable. The new version is under construction, but it's essentially a new product, so I can't say exactly when it will be released.

In the meantime, you can change this in the source code.

Regards,
Mikko
