The AS300P forms an integral part of Elster’s AMI solution that manages data from Smart Electricity, Gas and Water meters. MDMS and Head End applications are available to meet individual utility’s requirements. A range of communications solutions can be deployed to ensure secure and reliable communications.

The AS300P offers a modular solution for both WAN/LAN and HAN communications infrastructures. This modularity ensures a future proof solution for the utility by allowing for a change of communications technology. Elster offer a variety of solutions to match market requirements including GSM/GPRS; PLC (SFSK and OFDM); LP RF for WAN/LAN communications. Once DCC is decided upon, an appropriate communication module will be developed. M-Bus (wireless); Wavenis; ZigBee are available for HAN communications.

The AS300P offers a highly flexible platform that should match current and anticipated market needs. The product is focused on the UK requirements and therefore matches the existing requirements of advanced metering. The hardware is specifically designed to meet all the current requirements of the UK Government prospectus, March 2011. The firmware will initially cover current credit requirements with full ‘thick’ prepayment available as a future enhancement. The firmware is downloadable so any enhancements could be introduced at a future date. The metrological code cannot be updated.

Smart Grid applications in the future will greatly benefit from the existence of Smart Meters installed on the networks. The AS300P has been designed to anticipate this requirement of smart grids. The meter offers comprehensive power quality monitoring and instrumentation profiling. By utilising this information, utilities/network operators can gain a detailed understanding of their network performance.

A 2 or 3 line dot matrix display allows user friendly information to be shown to the customer. A simple menu structure allows easy navigation through the information. The icons allow status information to be provided at the same time as data. Communications

All communications from the AS300P are based on DLMS which is a well established IEC standard. Local � Optical bi-directional IEC 62056-21 port � HAN interface initially ZigBee SEP + UK

extensions, this interface is housed in the communications module.

Remote � WAN or LAN communications allowing

remote meter reading and programming � Modules will be available for:

- GSM/GPRS - PLC - Low Power Radio - DCC (when defined)

Tariff Capabilities The meter offers comprehensive structures which we believe will more than satisfy any future requirements. TOU Tariff Structure � 48 TOU rates � 12 Week profiles � 24 Day profiles
