CSV configuration

MBUS Wired Setup

In this section it is possible to configure the options regarding the 

data report sending in a csv file. This file contains the reading data 

already decripted and orderd for an easier and quicker consult (for 

OMS compatible devices only):

In this section it is possible to configure the options regarding

CSV settings

Configuration submit (SUBMIT button)

> Send raw file:

 by selecting this checkbox, the raw file (pkfile) containing the “raw” telegrams of the wired and wireless MBUS modules 

will be sent.

Send also .csv files:

 by selecting this check, in addition to the raw file sending, the csv files data sending will be enabled.

 Nota:

 

To enable this feature, you will need to use your own SMTP server (Email and Email+FTP sending option only; FTP sender only won’t 

require it).

> WaterMeter / HeatMeter / HeatCostAllocator / HumidityTemperatureSensor / Other: 

Here you can select the type of Wireless MBUS 

devices that will be received. The concentrator will create and send a different csv file for each of these categories, containing the data of the 
relative device types.

> Single File:

 by selecting this option, the transmission of a single csv file will be enabled for all Wireless MBUS devices received. Unlike the 

previous category, this file contains less details, but will group all devices into one file only.

> M-BUS:

 selecting this option enables the transmission of a csv file containing the reading data of the wired MBUS modules of the network of 

the MB-MASTER connected to the concentrator.

> Export file language: 

Here you can select the language of the csv file sent. (Italian / English).

> AES Global key 1-2-3:

 if the Wireless MBUS devices are encrypted with a global key, it will be necessary to indicate the global AES key set 

so that the concentrator can decrypt the data and report them in the csv file. It is possible to indicate up to three keys: the concentrator will 
attempt to decrypt with all three of them.

> Individual AES keys:

 in case the Wireless MBUS devices are encrypted with an individual key, it will be necessary to upload the file (.keys) of 

the individual AES keys so that the concentrator can decrypt the data and report them in the csv file.
It is necessary to upload a single file containing the keys of all devices to be decrypted. Attempting to load multiple files in sequence is not 
allowed, as the concentrator will overwrite the files from time to time.

As all the configuration data has been entered, press the button Submit   in order to confirm the configuration and to send the configuration 

parameters to the concentrator. After few seconds the LED will turn on (parameters saving phase). Within one minute the configuration saving 

process will be completer and the LED will turn off.
