IZAR CENTER

M-BUS MASTER

Application

IZAR CENTER is used for the remote reading of M-Bus and IZAR radio-linked meters. Easy to install, IZAR CENTER automatically communicates with the connected meters and memorises their data.
IZAR CENTER may be read either by a PC with an RS232, USB or LAN link or by an analog. Connected to a modem, IZAR CENTER sends the data to the FTP server, at programmable intervals. Furthermore, it is able to warn the user in real time of the occurrence of alarms by e-mail.
Connected to an IZAR RECEIVER M-BUS, it can read meters equipped with the IZAR radio.

IZAR CENTER

Principle of operation

IZAR CENTER is sending out, via M-Bus, a request to the connected meters. This action could be initiated manually by the user or automatically by the IZAR CENTER. For automatic reading, the version of IZAR CENTER with memory is required to program meters reading intervals. The meter is responding to that request by transmitting its values to the IZAR CENTER. The meter data is stored in a built-in memory and can be transmitted automatically to a meter reading software (e.g. IZAR@NET 2 software).
