(Main)Thermal energy meters - Part 3: Data exchange and interfaces
Thermal energy meters - Part 3: Data exchange and interfaces
This document specifies the general requirements and applies to thermal energy meters. Thermal energy meters are instruments intended for measuring the energy which in a heat-exchange circuit is absorbed (cooling) or given up (heating) by a liquid called the heat-conveying liquid. The meter indicates heat in legal units.
Part 3 specifies the data exchange between a meter and a readout device (POINT / POINT communication). For these applications using the optical readout head, the EN 62056-21 protocol is recommended.
For networks with up to 250 meters, a master unit with AC mains supply according to EN 13757-2 is necessary to control the M-Bus. For these applications the physical and link layer of EN 13757-2 and the application layer of EN 13757-3 is required.
For wireless meter communications, EN 13757-4 describes several alternatives of walk/drive-by readout via a mobile station or by using stationary receivers or a network. Both unidirectionally and bidirectionally transmitting meters are supported by this standard.
Thermische Energiezähler - Teil 3: Datenaustausch und Schnittstellen
Dieses Dokument legt die allgemeinen Anforderungen an den Datenaustausch und die Schnittstellen von thermischen Energiemessgeräten fest.
Dieses Dokument ist auf thermische Energiemessgeräte mit unidirektionaler und mit bidirektionaler Übertragung anwendbar.
Dieses Dokument ist auch auf Netzwerke von bis zu 250 m anwendbar, bei denen eine Master-Einheit mit Wechselstromversorgung erforderlich ist, um den M Bus zu steuern. In diesen Fällen ist das Dokument nur in Verbindung mit EN 13757 2 (Bitübertragungsschicht und Sicherungsschicht) und EN 13757 3 (Anwendungsschicht) anwendbar.
Im Hinblick auf die Kommunikation von thermischen Energiemessgeräten über Funk ist dieses Dokument nur in Verbindung mit EN 13757 4 anwendbar, worin mehrere Alternativen des mobilen Auslesens oder des Auslesens durch Verwendung eines ortsfesten Empfängers oder eines Netzwerks beschrieben werden.
ANMERKUNG Thermische Energiemessgeräte sind Geräte zum Messen der Energiemenge, die in einem Wärmeübertragerkreislauf von einer Flüssigkeit, der sogenannten Wärmeträgerflüssigkeit, absorbiert (Kühlung) oder abgegeben (Heizen) wird. Das Gerät zeigt die thermische Energie in gesetzlichen Einheiten an.
Compteurs d'énergie thermique - Partie 3 : Échange de données et interfaces
Le présent document spécifie les exigences générales d’échange de données et interfaces relatives aux compteurs d’énergie thermique.
Le présent document est applicable aux compteurs d’énergie thermique à transmission unidirectionnelle et bidirectionnelle.
Le présent document s’applique également aux réseaux contenant jusqu’à 250 compteurs, pour lesquels une unité principale avec une alimentation secteur en courant alternatif est nécessaire pour commander le M-Bus. Dans ces cas, le document n’est applicable que conjointement à l’EN 13757 2 (couche physique et de liaison) et l’EN 13757 3 (couche d’application).
Pour les communications avec compteurs d’énergie thermique sans fil, le présent document n’est applicable que conjointement à l’EN 13757 4, qui décrit plusieurs alternatives de lectures à pied/en voiture par l’intermédiaire d’un poste mobile ou en utilisant des récepteurs fixes ou un réseau.
NOTE Les compteurs d’énergie thermique sont des instruments destinés à mesurer l’énergie thermique qui, dans un circuit d’échange thermique, est absorbée (refroidissement) ou délivrée (chauffage) par un liquide appelé « liquide caloporteur ». Le compteur indique l’énergie thermique en unités légales.

5 Physical layer
5.1 General
A meter can have either none or a number of interfaces to communicate with the outside world. If a meter
has an interface in accordance with this standard, it shall fulfil at least one of the following requirements
for the physical layer.
5.2 Physical layer optical interface
The optical interface is used for local data readout. A hand-held unit, equipped with an optical readout
head, is temporarily connected to one thermal energy meter and the data are read out, one thermal
energy meter at a time. The physical properties of the optical interface are defined in EN 62056-21.
5.3 Physical layer M-Bus
The physical layer of the M-Bus is described in EN 13757-2. It can be used for “point to point” or for
“multi-point” communication in bus systems. If a thermal energy meter presents more than one unit load
to the bus, the number of unit loads has to be shown on the meter documentation as “xUL” where x is the
number of unit loads. Only integer values are allowed. Especially in extended installation, meters with an
M-Bus interface might need additional protection against surge and lightning. EN 13757-2:2023Error! B
ookmark not defined., Annex B shows various techniques for either constructing meters with an M-bus
interface and integrated enhanced protection elements. In addition, it shows how to construct external
protection elements for meters with a standard (unprotected) M-Bus interface. Two variants are given:
one (preferred) for situation where a ground connection is available and a variant with weaker protection
if no ground connection is available. An enhanced version of the protection additionally protects the
meter and its interface from destruction if mains power is connected to the M-Bus terminals of the meter.
If the readout frequency of the meter is limited either by software or by the battery capacity, the meter
documentation shall signal the readout frequency as “x per day”, “y per h” or “z per min” where x, y or z
are the number of readouts within the corresponding period allowed by the software without impairing
the battery lifetime. Thermal energy meters with unlimited readout frequency do not need such
information.
5.4 Physical layer wireless interface
The physical layer wireless interface shall be according to EN 13757-4.
6 Link layer
6.1 Link layer optical interface
6.1.1 Link layer optical interface with the EN 13757-2 protocol
If the optical interface is used with the EN 13757-2 protocol, a wake-up message can be sent after every
idle time of > 330 bit times to the thermal energy meter. The wake up message consists of zeroes and
ones alternating at the desired baud rate for a duration of (2,2 ± 0,1) s. After an idle time of 33 bit times
to 330 bit times, the communication can start.
6.1.2 Link layer optical interface with automatic protocol recognition
If the user or the hand-held unit does not know
