DLMS-COSEM through Serial Port

Forums
General discussion

Hi Guruxs,

I'm trying to make sense of the DLMS User Association, my usual area is web development, but in this case, I need to implement a protocol of this type.

I am reading the blue book and also the green one, although it is difficult for me to think about how to create a frame to send through the serial port, I do not know if all the protocol requires an object-oriented model (blue book) or if only it is possible to know HOW TO CREATE a frame to send all the queries to the device, that is, like a script...

SL7000 unable to disconnect

Forums
General discussion

Hello all,

First i want to thank you for your work on Gurux library.
It is not an easy task to make it work with all kind of meter.
And it helps a lot of people.

I am now able to read my meter register as I want.
But when i finished reading the value, a disconnect request is sent and the meter do not respond and keep the connection alive.

Password Change

Forums
General discussion

There is Some improvement required in GDLMSdirector in Password change
mechanism.

Association LN Object has two options for SECRET change :
1. LLS secret is changed by writing attribute 7
2. HLS secret is changed by method 2

GDLMSDirector provided only one feature at a single time i.e If current
association is HLS association it uses Method 2 and if Current Association is
LLS then it Writes Attribute 7 when Button "Update" is used.

Trying to read .dat Files from Actaris

Forums
General discussion

Hi,

i'm a software engineer specialized in front-end and middleware, so i know absolutely nothing (except from what google taught me) about smart meters, electrical metering, etc.

We have a client that needs to read dat files. As far as i know, these DAT files are converted to Excel files by a software called "Notus XLS" from Actaris. We can't open the files directly with excel. they must be converted.

for now, we have only the information in the beggining of the file, that we can read using a HEX editor:

StoC key

Forums
General discussion

Hello,

I can't find in Green Book mention about what key should be used to encrypt StoC for HLS.

Is it server's auth key, server's encryption key, ded-key (if used) or some other key.

In Green book I find only a note about it: "Man. Spec.". What does it means Man. Spec.?
