General
The Wireless M-Bus protocol stack implemented on iM871A is compliant the European
standard 13757 part 4: "Communication systems for meters and remote reading of meters"
[1]. It describes the wireless communication of water, heat, electricity and gas meters with
data concentrators. For sake of convenience in this manual such meter devices are called
"meter", the communications partner devices like concentrators are called "other".
