The smartmeter-datacollector tool is a Python3 software which allows you to continuously retrieve data from supported smart meters (listed below). The acquired values can be forwarded to one or more data sinks like a MQTT broker or logger.

The following smart meters are supported:

• Landis+Gyr E450:
  Data pushed by smart meter over CII interface (wired M-Bus). Encoded with HDLC and DLMS/COSEM.
  The USB to M-Bus dongle (with RJ12 connector, option c) has been used for development and tests. However, other Linux compatible USB M-Bus Slave dongles are possible as well.
  • Unencrypted data
  • Encrypted data
• Iskraemeco AM550:
  Data pushed by smart meter over P1 interface (DSMR). Encoded with HDLC (IEC 62056-46) and DLMS/COSEM.
  Use one of the widely available, Linux compatible, DSMR-to-USB dongles with a RJ12 connector.
  • Unencrypted data
  • Encrypted data

The following data sinks are implemented:

• MQTT (v3.1.1):
  • Encryption
    • Unencrypted connection
    • Encrypted connection
      • TLS
      • optional custom CA certificate
  • Authentication
    • Unauthenticated
    • Authenticated with username / password
    • Authenticated with client certificate
• Logger to STDOUT

smartmeter-datacollector is fully configurable through a .ini configuration file. The smartmeter-datacollector-configurator webinterface can help to create and modify the configuration.
