SEMAK App

SEMAK is a platform that has been developed to help you as a utility to perform automated meter reading via local ports with higher quality and efficiency. SEMAK is already integrated with more than 30 electricity meter models from different communication protocols such as DLMS , IEC62056-21 and Modbus. Among other things, SEMAK is able to schedule daily tasks of meter readers through a web-based management dashboard, specifying which meters should be visited each day (or week). SEMAK can easily connect to the meter either via an optical port using OTG or Bluetooth. Additionally this platform is not limited to the electricity meters, and is capable of reading any other meters such as Water or Gas as long as said meters support the mentioned protocols.

Some of the key specifications of SEMAK include:

• USB or Bluetooth optical port for communicating with meters on demand.
• Web-based management dashboard for system administrators to control and manage the access level of end-users.
• Ability to schedule daily tasks of meter readers through a web-based management dashboard, specifying which meters should be visited each day and the parameters that should be read or set.
• Local database on mobile phones and the ability to record and see various reports from meters that were visited.
• Direct and online transfer of parameters and recorded logs to MDM and communication with other systems for billing purposes through web services.
• Implementing keys management for smart meters to receive meter keys from AHE platform in a secure manner without human intervention.
• Ability to navigate the location of intended meters with the use of peripheral software such as “WAZE”.
• Records geographic coordinates and physical information of the location where the meter is installed when communicating with it. This information is then sent to a central platform.
• Ability to read and store hourly, daily, and monthly profiles of all types of smart meters and export them to Excel.
• Ability to read required parameters (store data, generate reports, and export them to Excel) of all smart and traditional meters that support optical ports using IEC62056-21, DLMS/COSEM, and Modbus protocols for billing purposes.
• Local database that allows users to store data and record operations done on meter.
• Ability to transfer data from the meter profile to the MDM (Meter Data Management) server online.
• Ability to read, set the time and date, and activate or deactivate smart meters that use DST, regardless of their brand or manufacturer. In addition, our product is compatible with traditional meters based on the IEC62056-21 protocol, which was developed by Behineh Sazan Toos Co.
• Ability to update the firmware, calculate tariffs, and configure various settings—including display screen, relay parameters, IP, and other communication settings—for smart meters.
• Includes a test and inspection unit for meters that can scan the barcodes of meters and modems, test the wiring and connections of the RS485 bus for all meters, and automatically transfer sub modems and meters to the MDM platform.
• Includes a test and inspection unit for 3-phase smart meters. This unit performs wiring inspections, facilitates meter installations, and reports any possible issues directly to the meter reader. In addition, it sends information to the MDM platform.
• Ability to report and view the communication status of smart meters, as well as the time when the meter data was last transferred to the MDM server. This feature displays the meter status after resolving any communication problems at the location.
