Scheduled message formats

For message scheduled formats, such as Scheduled Daily Redundant Pulse Extended, two types of messages will be transmitted from the module - a clock message and a data message. Scheduled message formats will read the meter on top of the hour, allowing a predictability of the received telegrams. The difference between a clock message and a data message is described in the following table.

Table 277. Clock message and data message

Message

Time interval

Description

Clock message

Once per day

The clock message presents the current time of the meter. It can be used to verify that the clock is correct and has not drifted more than accepted.

Data message

Determined by Transmit interval parameter

The actual meter data collected from the meter.


The following table contains a detailed description of the payload of the clock message.

Data/Time

6 bytes

32 bit binary integer M-Bus type F

046Dxxxxxx = Valid date/time message

346Dxxxxxx = Invalid date/time message


The clock message will be transmitted once every day and the data message at least (regulated by transmit interval parameter or EcoMode) once every day. The transmit interval can only be set the values listed in Table 279, “Transmit interval options ”.

Although the meter readout will occur on top-of-the-hour, the data message will not necessarily be transmitted at that exact time. The LoRaWAN® transmission will occur after a random delay of 0-15 minutes to decrease the risk of collisions. The readout for the clock message occurs at a random hour (00:00- 23:00) at a random minute in the 35-45 interval and will be transmitted immediately after the readout.

Note

When using scheduled message formats, the transmit interval cannot not be set to higher than 1440 (24 hours).

Scheduled - Daily redundant

The data message of Scheduled mode-daily redundant contains an accumulated daily energy field, which is updated at 24:00 each day. Depending on transmit interval settings and data rate, the field will be included in between 1-24 data messages per day. This will increase the probability of the value being received. For example, if the transmit interval is set to “120”, the accumulated energy read at 24:00 will be transmitted 12 times during the 24 next coming hours.

Engelmann

In message format Engelmann, two types of telegrams are transmitted from the module; the first contain information collected from the Sensostar meter and the second information collected from meters connected via the module’s pulse inputs. Note that telegram 2 is only transmitted from the module if the pulse inputs are used.

When using the Engelmann message format the transmit interval (see section 6.5) is doubled to compensate for the additional telegrams transmitted in this message format, even if pulse inputs are not used and telegram 2 is not transmitted.

The module configuration parameter “Pulse input configuration” specifies which of the three pulse inputs are connected and whose data shall be read and transmitted by the module. Only the values configured to be included are sent. If no inputs are selected, telegram 2 is not sent.

Note: in case of errors in reading the data from the meter the function field in the DIF is set to indicate “value during error state” (M-Bus standard EN 13757-3:2013). In such cases the VIF and data part should be ignored. Since the unit of the input can be unknown in such cases it is set to dimensionless in the VIF, e.g., B440FD3A00000000 = pulse counter 1, no unit, with “value during error state”
