dNode P1 - FAQ

dNode P1 is typically compatible with a wide range of electricity meters that support the standard P1 connection protocol. To ensure compatibility with your specific electricity meter, it is recommended to consult the product manual or contact your provider (your DNO).
 
Please note that the P1 port on the electricity meter must also function as a power supply for a P1 device. The Swedish industry recommendation states 5VDC and 250mA. dNode P1 operates comfortably well below 250mA.
 
Given the above, dNode P1 works with the following electricity meters:

– Landis-Gyr E360 (E.ON, Landskrona Energi)
– Sagemcom T211/S211 S34U18 (Vattenfall, Ellevio, Kraftringen)
– Aidon 6534 – Versionen som har RJ12-port (Tekniska Verken) 
– Star STZ351 (Tranås Energi)
– Kamstrup OMNIA (inte gamla OMNIPOWER)
– Itron A100/A300

dNode P1 likely works with all DLMS/COSEM Mode D-based meters.

dNode P1 will not work with:
– ISKRA AM550 (E.ON) – E.on kan inte aktivera porten på denna.
– Kamstrup OMNIPOWER

If your electricity meter is equipped with a compatible P1/HAN port, the dNode P1 should be connected to it. It's an RJ12 socket. Please use the provided cable for this purpose.

If you have connected your dNode P1 to your electricity meter but do not see the blue light and cannot find the device's WiFi, there could be several possible reasons for the issue. Here are some common problems and solutions:

  1. Activated meter
    Have you activated your electricity meter's P1/HAN port? Some electricity network companies require customers to request activation of this port.

  2. Power supply: Your electricity meter must supply power to the device (5V DC). Please check if your electricity meter is capable of providing power to P1 devices.

  3. Kablar och anslutningar: Se till att alla kablar är korrekt anslutna både till elmätaren och till dNode P1-enheten. Dubbelkolla att anslutningarna är säkra och att det inte finns några lösa kontakter.

  4. WiFi configuration: If the device is not emitting any WiFi network, it may be because the WiFi function is not activated. Try resetting the device by unplugging it and plugging it back in. 

  5. Faulty device: If the above measures do not resolve the issue, it is possible that your dNode P1 unit is defective. In that case, you may need to contact the manufacturer or retailer for support or a replacement

If you have connected your device correctly, you should be able to detect a WiFi network named 'dNode P1'. It may be because your meter is too far away from your computer, smartphone, or any other device you are trying to connect from.
