The Optical Probe TL-OPUSB-IEC for Electric Meter, Gas Meter, Heating Meter, Water Meter
The optical probe TL-OPUSB-IEC for smart metering is an interface for data exchange between a consumption meter (eg, electric meter, gas meter, heating meter, water meter, etc.) and a peripheral device via infrared optical waves. The optical reading head is manufactured in accordance with the standard IEC 62056-21 (IEC 1107) .
Our optical probe TL-OPUSB-IEC has on one end an usb type A connector which can be connected to your peripheral device that supports USB-Host. There is a fix mounted magnetic ring on the other end of the optical reading head TL-OPUSB-IEC, which will be docked on your consumption counter.
Please note that additional, specific software is necessary to exchange data between the consumption meter and your peripheral device.
