Actaris Itron - SL7000 761 - "disconnected mode" problem

General discussion

Good morning.
I'm simply trying to verify why the DSO can no longer read, via the GSM modem system with SIM DATA CSD,

The Modem-GSM system seems ok.

I also wanted to test the operation of the "Utility's Port" of the meter with my pc (3 wire conection?).

The meter is Actaris Itron - SL7000 761 - FW 6,24 (2013)

I think Gurux is fine for this test.

After some trial and error I entered the configuration below

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<GXDLMSDevice xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema&quot; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance&quot; xmlns="Gurux1">

<Objects2 />
</GXDLMSDevice>

when i am trying to connect by my pc com-port to the "Utility's Port" of the meter the "telephone handset" icon is immediately activated on the meter display for a few seconds and the message "disconnected mode - OK" appears in Gurux on my PC

I am stuck and unable to connect. Please help.

Hi, You try to connect…

Hi,

You try to connect directly with the serial port. Change the media type from serial to terminal.

BR,
Mikko
