Functions 

  Reception and storage of the data transmitted by the Siemeca™ AMR consumption 

meters 

  Automatic creation of a network with up to 12 WT…16 (with a maximum of 500 con-

sumption meters) 

  Passing on all relevant consumption values to all WT…16 on the network 

  Communication via the Siemeca™ gateway 

Type summary  

The WT…16… network node is a component of the Siemeca™ system and has been 
designed for exclusive use with that system.  
The network node with integrated gateway is available in a number of versions for dif-
ferent applications: 
 

Type code  

Application 

Integrated 
M-Bus master 

Max. number of 
meters 

WTX16.GSM  Network node with gateway  

remote readout via GSM 

yes,  
5 unit loads 

2000

 

WTX16.IP 

Network node with gateway  
remote readout via Ethernet 

yes,  
5 unit loads 

2000 

WTX16.MOD  Network node with gateway  

remote readout via GSM or GPRS*) 

no 500**) 

*)  The use of the GPRS application requires certain provisions by the network operator. To use the GPRS 

option the user has to conclude a special contract with the service provider. 

**)  WTX16.MOD has no M-Bus master. It cannot be used to interconnect different networks. 

Equipment combinations  

All network nodes with gateway can be used in any combination with other Siemeca™ 
network nodes as long as the maximum number of 12 nodes per network is not ex-
ceeded. 
Network nodes with gateway and integrated M-Bus master (WTX16.GSM and 
WTX16.IP) can read external M-Bus meters complying EN1434/3.
