Figure 2: WB169-430 module configuration table
All the parameters contain information about device identification, series and hardware/software version and are
intended only for manufacturer’s use.
In the
middle section of the table
there is a group of commonly used configurable parameters of the WB169-430
module. There are following parameters:
Medium
MBUS-Medium code in M-Bus address
Encryption
encryption key setting
Info text
device type information
Sensus ID
entering of iPERL watermeter ID to the reading list
he
”Medium”
parameter is an international code of measured energy, water or other medium according to the
M-Bus coding system. The value of the parameter is editable for the WB169-430 (it is an editable part of full
meter/sensor M-Bus identification), the default value of the
”
Medium” parameter is 07 (”Water”). More detailed
description of the variable and possibilities of its setting are explained in details in section
”
Commands for
WMBUS messages settings”.
The
”Encryption”
parameter is used for entering of the encryption key for AES-128 encryption of transmitted
messages. If there is ”AES-128” selected in the
”
Type” field then the encryption key of 16 bytes length should be
entered to the
”
Key“ field (always in hexadecimal format). If there is ”none” selected in the
”
Type” field, then the
encryption is switched off.
The
”Info text”
parameter is used for setting of the device name. Entered device name is thus a part of each
information message (see paragraph
). Default setting of this variable is
”
none (no entry)”. More detailed
description of the variable and possibilities of its setting are explained in details in section
”
Commands for
WMBUS messages settings”.
