This section describes the radio communication management 

implemented. For the WM-Bus interface there is a test mode that 
can be activated via NFC (only before the passage of  +- 5 liters), 
that allows to verify the correct functioning of the device. With an 

NFC command the WM-Bus interface will be enabled for 1 minutes 
sending standard transmission data every 5 seconds. After this 
cycle the thermal energy meter will return to the initial mode waiting 
for the passage of +- 5 liters.

For wired M-Bus transmission or pulse inputs activation see the separated wired M-Bus or 

IR-MB-PULSE

 documentation. 

 Note

: module 

compatible from Hydrocal-M4 serial number 05053000.

The transmission of the packets will take place according to the default schedule or chosen by the customer via NFC. 
An ordered schedule is provided based on the selected WM-Bus packets (default: standard packet every 200 second of transmission).

 

If the transmission is < 200 seconds, the transmission will be asynchronous otherwise synchronous.

Wireless MBUS - OMSv4 certified (output configuration Wireless MBUS only). As soon as radio operation mode is activated, the thermal 
energy meter sends a radio telegram according to Wireless MBUS, T1 mode (unidirectional and synchronous transmission).

 

Preconfigured Radio parameters (AMR and synchronous mode, OMSv4 certified):

 ›

Transmission frequency: every 200 seconds (current values)

 ›

Transmission interval: every day, from 0 to 24 h

 ›

Encryption: disabled (default)

 ›

No historical data

 ›

Transmitted data: standard data (heating energy, heating volume), errors, battery value as a percentage

It is possible to change the configuration into Walk-By or Advanced mode with BMetering NFC Config app:

 ›

Transmission frequency: configurable (minimum 60 seconds)

 ›

Transmission interval: from Monday to Friday (optional Weekend), maximum 12 hours per day

 ›

Possibility to select a 24-hours’ time span with the following mandatory conditions:

 ›

Transmission frequency: > 300 seconds (synchronous)

 ›

Historical data disabled

 ›

Encryption: enabled/disabled

 ›

Historical data (12 months)

 ›

Transmitted data:

 ›

Standard data (max. 13 bytes): heating energy, heating volume

 ›

Combined (max 28 bytes): standard data with the addition of optional cooling energy and cooling volume 

 ›

Instantaneous (max. 31 bytes): standard data with the addition of optional instantaneous data

 ›

Pulses (max. 31 bytes): standard data with the addition of optional data regarding pulse input 1 and 2 (if used)

 ›

Battery value as a percentage

 ›

Errors

 ›

Historical data:

 ›

6 months of heating energy

 ›

12 months of heating energy

 ›

6 months of heating energy and 6 month of cooling energy

 ›

12 months of heating energy and 12 month of cooling energy*

 ›

12 months of heating energy and 12 months of heating volume*

 ›

12 months of cooling energy and 12 months of cooling volume*

 ›

During the JOIN to the network procedure, if the LoRaWAN 
transmission has been activated, the radio symbol   will flash 
quickly on the display (at a period of 1 second) until the device 
reaches the JOINED state and then remains always active. In the 
case of a failed JOIN the radio symbol turns off.
In the case of wM-BUS mode only after swi/- 5 liters the 

 icon will remain permanently active.

In the case of wired M-Bus  mode only after swi/- 5 liters 

the 

 icon will remain permanently active.

The radio icon 

 will flash quickly during a transmission (LoRaWAN 

or wM-Bus) in cases where the device has reached the JOINED 
state or when only wM-Bus mode is active.
During the wM-Bus and/or LoRaWAN test procedures, after starting 

the procedure via NFC app, the following cases will be handled:

 

WMBUS_TEST_MSG

: the icon 

 will remain active for 1 

minutes and will flash quickly on the display (at a period of 1 
second) with each wM-Bus package sent. After that time the icon 
will turn off.

 

LORA_TEST_JOIN

: the radio icon 

 will start flashing quickly on 

the display (at a period of 1 second).

 

If the join operation was successful, the icon will remain stable 
for 1 minute and then turn off otherwise it will continue to flash 
until all join attempts are concluded. In the case of a forced join 
procedure, after the passage of +- 5 liters, the icon will flash 
throughout the 6 minutes cycle to various SFx and then remain on 
or off depending on the outcome of the join request.
