The 

WM-E3S 4G CI

®

 communication module unit can be configured by the a 

WM-

E Term

®

 

v1.3.19T

 or newer version or the 

DM Set

 software which is also 

suitable for setup the electricity meter through a serial connection. 

The 

WM-E Term

®

 tool is suitable over the communication settings to readout the 

P1  Customer  interface

  registers  and  to  perform 

Tariff

3.1 Connection 

1.

 

The 

DM  Set

®

 

software  must  be  installed  to  a 

Microsoft  Windows

®

  capable 

installed PC computer. 

2.

 

Connect properly the optical head to the meter and to the USB port of the 
computer.  

3.

 

Configure the modem through the optical head. 

4.

 

Start the 

DM Set

®

 application for the configuration (version 2.14 or newer is 

necessary).  

5.

7.

 

Choose 

Extras

 menu and 

Options

, then choose the proper 

serial port

 which 

is  used  for  the  connectivity  of  the  optical  head.  Let’s  choose  the 

8N1

  data 

format and 

115 200 baud

 speed rate for the data transfer. 

8.

 

When you are configuring the modem first time, you can read out the version 
information only.  

Load the sample config file provided (go to step 9.), or request it from your 
supplier. 

IF  YOU  HAVE  ALREADY  LOADED  A  VALID  CONFIGURATION  FILE  TO  THE 
MODEM, You can use the Read Settings for readout the parameters of the 
meter (then edit and save the parameter settings with the Modify / Modem 
settings).
