INSTALLATION STEPS
▪ Step #1: Remove the meter terminal cover by its screws (with a screwdriver).
Step #2: Ensure that the modem is NOT under power supply, remove the AC connector from
▪
the meter. (The power source will be removed.)
▪ Step #3: Insert a replaceable and active SIM card (with APN) into the SIM-holder (4) - the
chip looks down, and the cutted edge of the SIM looks to the modem. Push the SIM until it
will be fastened (you will hear a click sound). If it is necessary,
the SIM card can be easily removed by pressing the card
again, causing the card to be ejected from the tray.
▪ Step #4: Install the modem enclosure (5) and fasten near to the
meter – or mount to the wall in a fixed position. You can insert
the device into the internal mounting points of the meter -
under the meter terminal cover - and attach it to the meter
terminal cover according to the meter's user guide.
▪ Step #5: Mount an external magnetic base or stick LTE
antenna to the antenna connector (3).
▪ Step #6: Connect the modem to your computer with the RS232
cable (2/2a) and use an RS232-USB converter (for RJ12
connector outfit use an RJ12-USB adapter).
▪ Step #7: Connect the modem's AC power connector (1) - wire
socket connection or "pigtail" connector depending on the
version - to the meter power input (for 100-230V AC) or to an external 230V power supply.
▪ Step #8: Configure the modem with the WM-E Term ® software via RS232 port → PC connection. (For further details see the next chapter).

Step #9: After completing the configuration, remove the RS232
▪
cable (or RJ12 cable) - labeled with „2" or „2a" - from USB adapter.
▪ Step #10: Disconnect the modem AC power connector (1) from
the meter (or power source). The modem will be shutting down.
▪ Step #11: Make a data connection between the modem →
meter on the interface you want to use (port nr. „2" or „2a" - RS232
data connection). If the modem has RS485 port, then make data
connection between the modem → meter by RS485 (2b)
connected cable.
▪ Step #12: If the modem has 2 digital input wires, then connect
external devices - to be monitored – to the 2 digital input interface (2c) cables. You can also use it for sabotage. The black wires are related for
input nr. #1, white wires are related for input nr. #2.
▪ Step #13: Connect back the modem's AC power connector (1) - wire socket connection or "pigtail" connector depending on the version - to the
meter's power input (for 100-230V AC). The modem will be powered by the meter and the modem will starting its operation and the LED signals
are signing the current activity. Place back the terminal cover of the meter and secure with the screws.
OPERATION LED SIGNALS
LED
identifier
LED1
• If there is a SIM and PIN code ok, the LED will turn on
GSM / GPRS • If there is no SIM or the SIM PIN is incorrect, the LED flashes every 1 second.
status
• If there is no SIM, the LED flashes every 1 second.
• RSSI flashes the LED according to the field strength value (1 flash lasts for 1 second, followed by a pause):
■ RSSI <= -98 → 1 flashing ■ RSSI> -98 and <= -83 → 2 flashing ■ RSSI> -83 and <= -68 → 3 flashes ■ RSSI> -68 → 4 flashes
LED 3 •
During the transparent meter communication: twice per second.
E-meter • At finish of the transparent communication: led is blank.
status •
According the IEC meter status: the LED will be active.
• In case of configuring the Multi Utility mode: led will be active or blank.
LED2 • During network registration: led is active
SIM status /
• During network search: blinking once per second
SIM failure or • When connected to the network and the IP connection is okay: blinking twice per second
PIN failure
• When the mobile network access technology was changed: quick flashing will be relied:
■ 2G → 2 flashing per second ■ 3G → 3 flashing per second ■ 4G LTE → 4 flashing per second
•
If no network is detected: the led will be blank
• During the CSD call and IP data transmitting the LED is lighting continuously
Note, that over the factory defaults, the operation and the sequence of the LED signals can be changed by the WM-E Term
the General Meter Settings parameter group. The free to choose further LED options can be found in the WM-E1S
CONFIGURATION OF THE MODEM
The modem can be configured with the WM-E Term ® software by setup of its parameters. This must be done before the operation and usage.
▪ Connect the modem to the computer by its RS232 cable and the RS232-USB converter.
▪ For the serial cable connection configure COM port settings of the connected computer according to the modem serial port properties in the
Windows at the a Start menu / Control panel / Device Manager / Ports (COM and LTP) at the Properties: Bit/sec: 9600, Data bits: 8, Parity:
None, Stopbits: 1, Bandwith control: No
The configuration can be performed via CSData call or TCP connection if the APN is already configured. Read Installation manual for CSD settings.)
MODEM CONFIGURATION BY THE WM-E TERM ®
The Microsoft .NET framework runtime environment is required on your computer. For modem configuration and testing you will need an APN/data
package enabled, an active SIM-card. The configuration is possible without a SIM card, but in this case the modem is performing restart periodically,
and some modem features will be not available until the SIM card is inserted (e.g. remote access).
Connection to the modem (via RS232 port*)
▪ Step #1: Download the https://www.m2mserver.com/m2m-downloads/WM_ETerm_v1_4.zip
▪ Step #2: Push the Login button and choose the WM-E1S device by it's Select
button.
▪ Step #3: At left on the screen, at the Connection type tab, choose the Serial tab,
and fill the New connection field (new connection profile name) and push the
Create button.
▪ Step #4: Choose the proper COM port and configure the Data transmission
speed to 9600 baud (in Windows ® you have to configure the same speed). The
Data format value should be 8,N,1. Push Save button to make a connection profile.
▪ Step #5: At bottom left side of screen choose the „Serial port" connection type .
▪ Step #6: Choose the Device information icon from the menu and check the RSSI
value, that the signal strength is enough and the antenna position is right or not.
(The indicator should be at least yellow (average signal) or green (good signal
quality). If you have weak values, change the antenna position while you will not
receive better dBm value. (you have to request the status again by the icon).
▪ Step #7: Choose the Parameter readout icon for the modem connection. The
modem will be connected and its parameter values, identifiers will be read out.
Parameter configuration
▪ Step #1: Download a WM-E Term sample configuration file
uncompress the file. Then choose the File / Load menu to load the sample configuration file. Edit parameter settings by following these steps.
▪ Step #2: On the screen at bottom, choose the Advanced settings button and choose the Parameter group: APN, then push to the Edit values
button. Define the APN server and in case of neccassary the APN Username and APN password fields, and push to the OK button.
▪ Step #3: Choose M2M parameter group, then push Edit values button. Add PORT number to the Transparent (IEC) meter readout port field –
which will be used for the remote meter readout. Give the configuration PORT NUMBER to the Configuration and firmware download port.
