This protocol executes implements a serial communication with the devices by binary HDLC protocol according to the DLMS/COSEM standard.

Two modes of addressing of I/O tags are supported:

• "Short Name (SN) referencing" using 16-bit object addresses
• "Logical Name (LN) referencing" using 6-byte OBIS codes

Communication was tested with the following devices:

• EMH LZQJ (SN referencing)
• Landis ZMD400 (SN referencing)
• Iskraemeco Iskra MT880-M (LN referencing)
• ADDAX NP73E.2-18-1 (LN referencing)

Protocol The protocol supports time synchronization,   the period is configured in the station configuration dialog.

...

• Upper MAC Address is used for addressing a Logical Device addressing, i.e. separately addressable entity within the physical device.
• Lower MAC Address is used for addressing of a Physical Device addressing, i.e. multi-drop address on the line.

Upper MAC Address is required. An implicit value, which is set when missing the station address is missing, is a reserved address Upper MAC Address = 1 (Management Logical Device).

In ordinary situations, when the physical device is identical with the logical one (one physical device = one logical device), you need not change this address does not need to be changed. If the physical device integrates more logical devices, you should monitor the registry content or "0-0:41.0.0" register of "SAP assignment" class (class_id=17, attribute 2 "SAP_assignment_list") in the dialog box "DLMS SN Object List" dialog box. This dialog box shows the list of logical devices that are integrated in the a physical one.

This is the example of a value representation of the attribute "SAP_assignment_list" attribute of the class "SAP assignment" class in the device which contains one logical devices device with Upper MAC Address 16.
See also the protocol parameter "Client MAC address" and a document "DLMS UA 1000-2 Ed. 7.0", chapter 8.4.2.3 "Reserved special HDLC addresses".

Note: for Iskraemec Iskra MT880, Upper MAC Address = 1, Lower MAC Address = 16 + the last two digits of the serial number (if, for example, the serial number is 72211943, then Lower MAC Address = 16 + 43 = 59).

To understand the object addressing in DLMS/COSEM protocol, you should know a so-called OBIS standard according to the IEC standard 62056-61 Object Identification system (OBIS), chapter "Annex A - Code presentation".

The "Logical Name (LN) referencing" mode uses mode directly uses the OBIS address of objects.

The "Short Name (SN) referencing" mode does not use the OBIS address but a 16-bit numerical address in the range of 16 bits.

The individual data entities are presented in so-called COSEM objects (Companion Specification for Energy Metering), which are the instances of COSEM classes (COSEM interface classes, COSEM IC). The Individual types of COSEM classes are specified in the document "COSEM Identification System and Interface Classes, Ed. 10.0", i.e. so-called DLMS Blue Book. Each type of COSEM class has its own identification number ("class_id") and the attributes with the sequence number. Each class has a set of attributes that have sequence numbers. The attribute helps to get facilitates the reading of a specific parameter of given a data entity.
Each instance has its initial beginning SN address (base_name), which is also the  the address of the first attribute of a class. The "logical_name" is the first attribute of all COSEM classes. When By reading this attribute, a user can obtain an OBIS address of a data entity that is presented by given classa specific class can be obtained. The address addresses of other further attributes are calculated according to this formula in the "Short Name referencing" mode calculated according to this formula:

short_name = base_name + ((attribute_index - 1) * 0x08)

The attributes can be static or dynamic depending on whether their value is static (i.e. unchanging, set by a producer or in the configuration of the device) or dynamic (changing). In the D2000 System, we recommend to configure configuring only the dynamic attributes, as the value of the measured data entity is in dynamic attributes. If it is necessary , for the interpretation of a value in a dynamic attribute (mostly the "value" attribute), other static or dynamic attributes are read automatically. See more information in the section Supported COSEM classes.

In the following tables, you can find the supported COSEM classes. The attributes that represents represent the value of the data entity (i.e. value that is important for a user) are marked as "Yes, the value of an entity" in the column "Support in D2000". The static attributes are read automatically and characterized as "Automatically read".

The reading of historical data from load profiles is made by performed using the instances of COSEM classes "Profile generic" (class_id = 7), i.e. the configuration of by configuring an I/O tag in with an attribute 2 ("buffer"). This I/O tag always contains the an invalid valued value in D2000 System but , however, it enables to read reading a buffer of the a specific instance of COSEM class "Profile generic".

Data about objects that are accessible by the reading of attribute "capture_objects" are stored into in the buffer. D2000 System automatically searches for I/O tags (its address parameters) that match the objects from attribute "capture_objects" (by their address parameters). The objects are searched by these parameters : "logical_name", "class_id", and "attribute_index".

The TELL command GETOLDVAL or ESL action GETOLDVAL start the reading of all the configured load profiles on the station. The time interval with data is always read by from the load profile according to the parameters of the TELL command or ESL action from the load profile.

Example: I/O tag with address::

• class_id = 7
• attribute_index = 2
• logical_name = 1-0:P.1.0

After the a tell command GETOLDVAL B.ELMER_125 "06-07-2020 00:00:00" "06-07-2020 01:00:00", the KOM process queries a list of objects in a profile (by reading attribute 3):

...

Note: it is necessary to configure a non-zero delay in the time parameters of the station, otherwise the reading of profiles will never get to the run (periodic reading has a higher priority). If there are several stations on the line, the delay must be higher than the duration of the periodic reading of the values of at all the stations.

The following picture shows a configuration dialog box of the I/O tag address.

Example for Short Name (SN) referencing:

The meaning of the parameters in the dialog box:

...

If these conditions are fulfilled - the device is connected to D2000 System, a communication station exists and the device communicates, you can define the parameters of the I/O tag address by the selection of the object from the list of all objects on the device. List A list of objects is queried from the device:

...

There is no need to configure any other I/O tags, just click on the button the Browse button.

First loading The first reading of the list takes upto up to several minutes depending on the baud rate. The window displays the information "Waiting for data...".

After data loadingis read, the list of objects and their descriptions will show in the window:

...

• each row represents one instance of COSEM class,
• the OBIS address of the object follows the icon of class,
• then there is the information about the SN address (base_name) of a particular instance of COSEM class and about its type (class_id and version),
• COSEM classes, which are supported in the D2000 System, can be expanded by clicking on the symbol (+).

When expanding a specific instance of the COSEM class, the supported attributes of the class will be displayed:

The information about attribute includes:

• attribute index (attribute_index) - a sequential number of the attribute, it is displayed next to the icon,
• attribute name (e.g. logical_name, value, scaler_unit, time_zone ...),
• static or dynamic attribute.

There can be an "expand" symbol (+) near the icon. When opening it and clicking on the row "Attribute value=" row, the current value of the attribute will be retrieved from the device:

...

This feature enables fast browsing of the attributes of all supported COSEM classes. The dialog window works as both "Object List" and "Value Browser".

The bottom part of the dialog box contains these check-boxes:

• Show hexadecimal - shows all the addresses of base_name classes as hex number hexadecimal numbers or decimal oneones.
• Show inactive objects
• Show unsupported classes - enables to display the instances of unsupported COSEM classes.

To close the dialog box without any changes, click on the Cancel button.

To insert the addressing parameters of the attribute of an instance into the address of I/O tag, double-click on the particular row. This closes the b the "DLMS SN Object List" dialog and the parameters will be set for of the I/O tag will be configured based on the selection.
