Both those links I’ve sourced from by searching today but it was a long time ago I downloaded them, so I cannot recall where exactly I got them. These are the 2 programs I found most relevant to the a1700. I have come across various revisions and unofficial links to various places whilst trawling the net. They comply with transmission standards IEC 62056-61 & -62 and DLMS/COSEM EN 13757-1. “FLAG” is apparently another name for “IEC 62056-21” and both those probes say they are “IEC 62056-21” so would that mean they are “FLAG”? OPTICAL PROBE HEAD TYPES Optical probe heads of the following standards and types are available: IEC 62056-21 – (formerly known as EN 61107 and EN 1107 also called ‘1107’ or ‘FLAG’) an international standard adopted in Europe and many other countries for optical probes magnetically attached to meters. I’ll happily dig it out again if you have any ideas, I was out of my depth and haven’t had the time to study up or research further. Lack of time and too many unknowns (I don’t know the history of the meter or the module) prevented any further progress at the time. I have a secondhand a1700 and a rs232 module for test purposes, I did at one time try hooking up the rs232 module via a FTDI adapter and ran the elster PC based software to communicate with the a1700 ( the name eludes me at the moment Elster SMARTset v1.1 ) but with no success. Elster is the worldwide leader for state-of-the-art gas measurement and regulation, electronic systems and as a provider of modular skids. Elster Metering Systems Power Master Unit Software provides a WindowsTM based platform for ease of programming the A1700. The A1700 can also take 1 or 2 plugin modules, which come in both a rs232 and an rs485 variety, the rs232 module is not a lot of money at all. Unlike the A100C and the A1100 there doesn’t appear to be any IR light pulses coming from the A1700’s when checked with a digital camera, my assumption has been that the data needs to be queried/initiated with a handshake rather than a simple repeated transmission.
The A1700 meter provides the complete solution for complex time of use metering for commercial and industrial consumers.The A1700 is of modular design, allowing one. Windows TM ‘Power Master Unit’ software programs. The A1700 offers outstanding measurement and complex tariff capabilities for use. I have several sites that have A1700 meters that I would like to get data from. Unfortunately not, but I too would be interested in anything you learn about this.
