Revision: C
A-Field
CI-Field
The A-Field (address field) is used to address the recipient in the calling
direction, and to identify the sender of information in the receiving direction.
The size of this field is one byte, and can therefore take values from 0 to 255.
The following table shows the allocation of addresses:
Address
Description
0
Factory default
1-250
Can be given to meters as individual primary addresses, either via the
bus (secondary addressing) or via the buttons directly on the meter.
251-252
Reserved for future use.
253
Used by the secondary addressing procedure (FDh).
254
Used for point-to-point communication (FEh). The meter replies with its
primary address.
255
Used for broadcast transmissions to all meters (FFh). None of the meters
replies to a broadcast message.
The CI-field (control information) codes the type and sequence of application
data to be transmitted in the frame.
Bit two (counting begins with bit 0, value 4),
called M-bit or Mode bit, in the CI-field gives information about the
used byte
sequence in multi- byte data structures. For communication with the meter, the
Mode bit shall not be set (Mode 1) meaning the least significant byte of a multi-
byte record is transmitted first.
The following table shows the codes to be used by the master:
CI_Field codes

51h

Selection of slaves
B8h

B9h

BDh

BEh

The meter uses code 72 in the CI-Field to respond to requests for user data.
