- Auto reads Electricity meters that communicates in IEC62056-21 standard (P1 Companion Standard on LKM124 model) and maps in predefined MODBUS register table
- Supports Up to 10 meters reading on RS485 Bus
- User defined initialization string can be sent before IEC62056-21 Mode C reading
- Configurable Modbus address via Modbus Commands
- Configurable Reading Period on IEC6056-21 or P1 Companion Standard side via Modbus Commands
- Configurable Reading Table Number on IEC6056-21 side via Modbus Commands
- Wide range power input: 5V – 24V (maz. 28V) DC
- Wide operating temperature range from -40 to 85 °C
- Very Small form factor, only 2.1 x 4.2 x 4.4cm
- Customization of reading process and register tables based on client request
- Firmware upgradable over serial line
