Hii ,
Thank you for your reply. Now I got to know how to check object's access rights.
How the write(obj, ATTRIBUTE_INDEX) performs SET operation from client to server? If we are passing only object and attribute number to this function, how the new value is set in the meter? Where it will take the parameter for value? I want to perform SET operation from client to server.

It depends from the COSEM object what you want to write.

clock.timeZone = 60
self.write(clock, 3)
