as the value written in step 1.
Follow the steps in the table below to read the current configuration of quantities
to store in previous values:
Step
Action
1
Read the Number of channels register to find out how many channels are used.
2
Read from the Quantity registers to get the OBIS code for the quantity
configured in the first channel.
3
Repeat step 2 for each channel, until all OBIS codes have been read. This
means step 2 shall be performed the same number of times as the value read
from the Number of channels register
Note – Step 1 initiates the readout procedure and can NOT be left out, even if
the number of channels used is already known.
Note – The Channel number register can optionally be read together with the
Quantity registers in step 2. The Channel number register holds the current channel
number, starting from 1 after reading the Number of channels register. It is
incremented every time the Quantity registers are read.
The Period configuration register is used to read or write the period with which
previous values are stored. The table below describes the contents of the Period
configuration register:
