Summary

The DLMS / COSEM standard suite (IEC 62056 / EN 13757- 1) is the most widely accepted international utility meter data exchange standard. DLMS is the application layer protocol that transforms the data into messages and COSEM describes the general object model and can be used for all kinds of presentations.

This manual page provides an overview of the DLMS functionality in {{{name}}} devices.

Note: DLMS is additional software that can be installed from the System → [[{{{name}}} Package Manager|Package Manager]] page.

Main

The Main page is used to configure DLMS physical devices and Cosem Groups.

DLMS Client

---

The DLMS Client section is used to enable the service.

Field	Value	Description
Enable	off | on; default: off	Enables DLMS service.

DLMS Physical devices

---

Interoperable devices in DLMS categorize as server (physical device) and client. Data collection device act as a client that supports system dependent features, parameters, functions and classes requesting data from the server (physical device). In this structure, communication protocol stack is independent of application layer so both devices may communicate different media. To add a new physical device, enter an new configuration name and click the 'Add' button.

After clicking 'Add' you will be redirected to the newly added physical device's configuration page.

DLMS Physical device configuration

---

The DLMS Physical device configuration section is used to configure the parameters of server (physical device).

Field	Value	Description
Enable	off | on; default: off	Enables specific physical device configuration.
Connection	empty ; default: none	DLMS connection.
Name	string; default: previously added device name	Physical device name.
Server address	integer [0..255]; default: 1	DLMS device server address.
Logic server address	integer [0..255]; default: 0	DLMS device logical server address.
Client address	integer [0..255]; default: 16	DLMS device client address.
Access security	none | Low | High | High MD5 | High SHA1 | High GMAC; default: none	DLMS device authentication type.
Password	string; default: none	DLMS device password if authentication is used.
Interface type	HDLC | WRAPPER; default: HDLC	DLMS device interface type.
Transport security	none | Authentication | Encryption | Authentication encryption; default: none	DLMS device message encryption.
Invocation counter OBIS code	string; default: none	DLMS device invocation counter OBIS code.
Authentication key	string (Length of the value must be 32); default: none	DLMS device authentication key.
Block cipher key	string (Length of the value must be 32); default: none	DLMS device block cipher key.
Dedicated key	string (Length of the value must be 32); default: none	DLMS device dedicated key.
Test	-(interactive button)	Test device configuration.

DLMS Cosem groups

---

To add a new cosem group, enter an new configuration name and click the 'Add' button.

After clicking 'Add' you will be redirected to the newly added cosem group's configuration page.

DLMS Cosem group configuration

---

The DLMS Cosem group configuration section is used to configure the parameters of cosem groups.

Field	Value	Description
Enable	off | on; default: off	Enables Cosem group.
Name	string; default: previously added cosem group name	OBIS code group name.
Interval	integer [1..4294967295]; default: 1	Interval for OBIS code reading (in seconds).
Test	-(interactive button)	Test cosem group.

DLMS Cosem value

---

Cosem value is a specific value retrieved from a defined server (physical device). To add a new cosem value, enter an new configuration name and click the 'Add' button.

After clicking 'Add' you will be redirected to the newly added cosem value's configuration page.

Field	Value	Description
Enable	off | on; default: off	Enables Cosem state.
Name	string; default: previously added cosem value name	COSEM option name.
Physical device	selection; default: none	Physical device to read from.
OBIS code	string; default: none	OBIS code value, actions are not executed, only properties are read.
COSEM class id	DATA (ID: 1) | REGISTER (ID: 3) | REGISTER (ID: 3) | DEMAND REGISTER (ID: 5) | REGISTER ACTIVATION (ID: 6) | PROFILE GENERIC (ID: 7) | CLOCK (ID: 8) | SCRIPT TABLE (ID: 9); default: DATA (ID: 1)	Object type for OBIS code.
Entries	interger [1..32767]; default: none	How many data objects to read.

Connections

The Connections page is used to configure DLMS connections. You can use either TCP or serial (depending on the router) connection to establish a connection between the physical device and the router.

DLMS Connections

---

To add a new connection, enter an new connection name and click the 'Add' button.

After clicking 'Add' you will be redirected to the newly added connection's configuration page.
