M-Bus Wireless settings menu
-
Enter the M-Bus wireless settings page.
-
Use Up/Down keys to scroll through the menu and press OKckey when 1 Global enc. key is selected.
The global encryption key is used by meters configured to use the global key for encryption/decryption. This is useful when multiple meters have the same encryption key.
The encryption key is used to decrypt the telegrams received from the wireless M-Bus slave, which enables standard wired M-Bus readout. If a meter is sending encrypted telegrams and there is no/wrong encryption key entered, the readout on the wired M-Bus interface will return a container telegram with encrypted data. This kind of container telegram is normally not readable by a standard M-Bus readout software.
The encryption key can be obtained by the manufacturer of the wireless M-Bus slave.
-
Change the encryption key using Up/Down keys and move the cursor using Right/Left keys.
-
Press OK to accept the changes, or press ESC to cancel.
