This program is complete database software for reading
m-bus network. Normally one network consists of maximum
of 250 slaves, so in the program user can add or delete
different networks. This software is built on several modules:
- user module - 4 access levels
- set-up module - communication parameters, protocols,
printing set-up, etc.
- instruments module - defining of tax instruments,
with all necessary data, tariff defining (up to 4 tariffs),
etc.
- groups - organizing instruments in groups, up to 3
levels in tree-oriented structure
- automatic readouts
- reports, calculation and billing for various instrument(s)/group
Connection between PC and m-bus network is provided by
m-bus supply converter, type MBRS-250/128/64/32/10. When
the program is in stand-by, it is tracking time to determine
whether automatic readout must be done. If so, the software
activates, reads particular or all devices, saves read data
and again going on stealth mode. Read data is seen in the
main program. The user can initiate at any moment manual
reading - when selects instrument/group/network and presses
button "Manual read". All data is saved in SQL database.
From finished readings any data can be viewed for given
time period, and also billing can be made, if tariffs are
defined. There are four access levels for different user,
the lowest priority level can only initiate manual reading
and make reports and billing for period of time.
The group option (up to 3 levels deep) gives power to user
to organize networks and instruments in a clean way. For
every slave on the network there are two additional characteristics
with user-defined information.
This software works under Windows 2000/XP/Windows 7 and
