M-Bus > Settings
On this page, you can make a host of settings for the M-Bus driver. The possible configuration of the
parameters is described in the
Description
column.
6.7.4
M-Bus > Files
The M-Bus configuration is saved in files. They can be exchanged between the PC and the universal
gateway here.
The entire M-Bus configuration is saved in four files:
mbus1.cfg
(driver);
mbus 1.txt
(data points);
mbus1.xml
(configuration of the manufacturer-specific VIFE codes);
dispatch.txt
(global dispatch file)
These files can be transferred between the computer and the universal gateway (download/upload)
on this page. For the upload, a dialog opens in which you can select the file on the PC and transfer it
with
[Start]
. The
Edit
buttons open text dialogs in which you can edit the respective files directly. No
further file transfers are required for this. Rows in the text dialogs with a hash # at the beginning are
comments. Rows without # at the beginning are activated settings.
Confirm the changes with
[Save]
and carry out a simple restart of the communication software.

“CANopen” menu area
CANopen is a communication protocol based on CAN (Controller Area Network). Like CAN, CANopen
is a serial bus system included among the fieldbuses. Pay attention to the jumper for termination of
the CAN bus. If the CANopen driver is installed, the CANopen menu area is displayed.
