    Operation 5.2 Meter Mode To enter the meter mode disconnect the device from mains and set the DIP switch 2.3) to „OFF“. Connect the device to mains again. In the meter mode the ZDUE-GPRS-PLUS-VI accepts automatically incoming calls from the central station and connects transparently the connected meters with the central station.
  • Page 26 Operation Regular connection Termination of connection after transfer timeout: termination The ZDUE-GPRS-PLUS-VI terminates a regular data connection after the end of the transfer timeout. What this means is: For an existing connection, if no data transfer takes place between the control centre and the ZDUE- GPRS-PLUS-VI or the meters connected to the ZDUE-GPRS-PLUS-VI within the specified timeout (default: 99 seconds), then the ZDUE-GPRS- PLUS-VI terminates the connection.

  • Page 28: Parameters

    Configuration Make sure that on the configuration computer that is connected the settings of the COM port being used agree with this, and switch off all flow controls (hardware (RTS/CTS), XON-XOFF). If the computer connected to the RS-232 interface transmits prompting telegrams with the device address of the ZDUE-GPRS-PLUS-VI (default: 99999999), the ZDUE-GPRS-PLUS-VI responds exactly as if it received the prompting telegram from the remote control centre via the GSM network.

  • Page 29: Parameter Classes

    Configuration Each parameter class includes a range that is reserved for possible expansions. Parameter expansions that are covered by these reserved ranges do not lead to any incompatibility between different firmware versions. If the expansion space is not sufficient, a new parameter class must be created.

    Configuration Set password parameterised in the ZDUE-GPRS-PLUS-VI (default: ‘00000000‘) All of the passwords transmitted by the control centre must be the same as the ones that were parameterised, otherwise the communication will be terminated by the ZDUE-GPRS-PLUS-VI by means of a break command. The request to transmit the password (P0 operand) when programming mode is activated must be answered with the password command (P1 command).

  • Page 36: Parameter Transfer Command

    Configuration After this command is carried out, the data are initially stored in the volatile memory of the ZDUE-GPRS-PLUS-VI. In order to transfer them to non- volatile memory, the parameter transfer command W1P01() (see Section 6.5.4) must be executed. R3 commands: 1.

  • Page 37: Time/Date Commands

    Configuration 6.5.5 Time/date commands The time and date commands have no function in the ZDUE-GPRS-PLUS- VI. They are implemented for reasons of compatibility with other devices and control centre programs. The reading of the time and/or date from the ZDUE-GPRS-PLUS-VI makes available the values that were written to the device previously with the commands Set time and/or Set date.

  • Page 38: Status Commands

    Configuration 6.5.6 Status commands Events and error messages are recorded in an "operation status word" in the ZDUE-GPRS-PLUS-VI. This is stored in volatile RAM, and is thus lost in the event of a power failure. The status word can be read from the device in order to determine the current operating status.

  • Page 43: Gprs Modes

    GPRS Modes 7 GPRS Modes In GPRS mode it is possible, as an alternative to communication via CSD, to establish a data connection via the GPRS network to the ZDUE-GPRS- PLUS-VI and the meters connected to it. In this case the ZDUE-GPRS-PLUS-VI functions as an IP server to which an IP connection must be established from a client (e.g.

  • Page 44: Behaviour For The Gprs Dial-In

    GPRS Modes 7.2 Behaviour for the GPRS dial-in Provided that the parameterisation is correct, normally the device dials into the GPRS network automatically and then sets up the IP server, so long as GPRS mode is activated in class 82. For example, faults in the GSM network or at the GPRS provider can cause the log-in and dial-in attempts of the ZDUE-GPRS-PLUS-VI to fail.
