The optical probe TL-OP232-IEC-C for smart metering is an interface for data exchange between a consumption meter (eg, electricity 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-OP232-IEC-C has on one end a serial DB-9 connector (RS-232, female) which can be connected to a peripheral device. There is a fix mounted magnetic ring on the other end of the optical reading head TL-OP232-IEC-C, 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.
