General
Upgradable for future communication needs: flexible remote communication modules without breaking
approval seal. The new series of modules for domestic use puts promises into practice, paving the way not only for multi-energy applications but also for new services in personal energy management.
This specification details the operation and the electrical requirements for connection of an AMR module
with M-Bus interface to the L+G E350 (ZxF series 100) meter.
Compatible meters
ZCF110/120 single phase meter  ZMF110/120 multiphase meter  ZFF110/120 multiphase meter
The owner of the AMR modules is responsible that all persons engaged on work with the modules:
Are competent and qualified in accordance with national regulations (see ISSA "Guideline for Assessing the Competence of Electrically Skilled Persons").
Have read and understood the relevant sections of the user manual.
Strictly observe the safety regulations (according to the following section) and
the instructions in the individual chapters.
Functions
The AMR interface contains the following functions:
Bi-directional communications: an integrated M-Bus (2 wires, passive) interface provides a simple
means of connecting multi-energy meters. This makes multi-energy applications an affordable proposition for domestic use. Transmission protocol: IEC 62056-21
Rate input for tariff switching via external control inputs Pulse output (with pulse rate change) Internal communication interface for the transfer billing data between the meter and AMR module
(every 10 seconds).
For details of the communications protocol, refer to the software interface specification (IEC 62056-21 and OBIS Codes).
Phase connections to one phase (230VAC)
Safety Notes
The owner of the modules is also responsible for:
The protection of persons.
The prevention of material damage.
The training of personnel.
The following safety regulations must be observed at all times:
Devices which have fallen down should not be installed, even if no damage is apparent, and should be returned for testing to an authorised service centre (internal damage possible).
Modules must never be cleaned with running water or high pressure devices. Water can cause
short-circuits or damage el. components.

User Manual
Strictly observe the safety regulations!
Remove the utility seals on the terminal cover and the AMR module cover. Remove the terminal cover (1). Remove the AMR module (2).
Insert the AMR module carefully at the place provided in the meter. Ensure the connector pins are not bent when the module is pushed down. Tighten and seal the 2 screws of the AMR module.
The connections are marked on the faceplate.
Installation Hints
The installation must be done in a way, that even in the case of cable break no dangerous voltages are applied to touchable parts of the module. Generally, meters are delivered with the communication modules installed. The fitting of a meter with a communication module is, therefore, an exception and can be necessary e.g. when a module needs to be replaced.
Fit the AMR module in the meter as follows:

Rate Input
The module provides a single optically isolated rate input. Maximum voltage: 230VAC (-20% / +15%) / 2mA Function: no voltage on the rate input: T1 (register 1.8.1 active), default with voltage on the rate input: T2 (register 1.8.2 active)
Pulse Output
The pulse output circuit appears as an open-collector from an opto-isolator. Maximum voltage: 265VAC/DC Maximum reading rate: 1ms
Communication Parameter
Some jumper blocks are used for setting the communication parameter. Note: set the jumper before switch-on.
Jumper Block Config A
Jumper block “Config A” (left site) is used for setting the baud rate and the data format for the M-Bus interface:
Default (without jumpers): 9600 baud, 7E1 Set the jumper for activation:
Jumper Block Config B
Jumper 1 is used for setting the timeout for acknowledge (according to specification for IEC 62056-21):

Jumper 3 and/or 4 is used for setting the pulse rate for the pulse output:
LED Displays
Two LED’s display the current operating status of the module and give information about the data transfer. Power: on: AMR module is supplied with power
flashed: communication via M-Bus interface
Error: on: communication error between AMR module and meter
off: no errors
Communication
The AMR port is conforming to IEC 62056-21 with fixed baud rate. For reading data the meter-ID (device address) can be used (e.g. /?<meter-ID>!); Explanations of massage contents (see IEC 62056-21):
