1.8 Safety precautions
DANGER —HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES
WARNING - These installation/servicing instructions are for use by qualified personnel only.
To avoid electrical shock, do not perform any servicing other than that contained in the
operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so.
WARNING –Mains protection
WARNING - The DINgate module must always be protected by fuses on the incoming side. To
enable maintenance DINgate module, it is recommended to install a short circuit protection.
Do not operate the equipment other than indicated by the technical data.
Always adhere to the following checklist:
1. Only qualified personnel or licensed electricians should install the Xemex DINgate DSO. The mains voltages
of 230 Vac can be lethal!
2. Follow all applicable local and national electrical and safety codes.
3. Install the device in an electrical enclosure (panel or junction box) or in a limited access electrical room.
4. Verify that circuit voltages and currents are within the proper range for the DINgate module.
5. Ensure that the DINgate is placed behind fuses or circuit breakers.
6. Equipment must be disconnected from the HAZARDOUS LIVE voltages before access.
7. Before applying power, check that all the wires are securely installed by tugging on each wire.
8. Do not install the DINgate module where it may be exposed to temperatures below –20°C or above 70°C,
excessive moisture, dust, salt spray, or other contamination. The device requires an environment no worse
than pollution degree 2 (normally only non-conductive pollution; occasionally, a temporary conductivity
caused by condensation must be expected).
9. Do not drill mounting holes in the device. Click the module on a DIN Rail instead.
10. If the DINgate device is installed incorrectly, the safety protections may be impaired.

2Technical description
The Xemex DINgate DSO device is a communication gateway with a Modbus Interface and an optical interface to
connect an ABB B21 of B23 E-meter.
It has following interfaces:
•Main power connection 230V
•RS485 / Modbus RTU Communication Interface
•Optical Interface
•User Interface - LEDs
•SIM card slot (for 2FF SIMs)
•LTE antenna connection (SMA)
The DINgate DSO module reads out the ABB B21 or B23 E-meter every 10 seconds and logs the data. Data can be
readout using the DLMS protocol via a TCP/IP connection over LTE.
The DLMS object model uses the SMR5 specification as a reference. Extra OBIS objects are added to provide LTE
connection settings and diagnostics. For these extra objects, the ESMR specification is used as reference.
The combination DINgate DSO + ABB E-meter can be seen as a compact version of the Dutch smart meter.

4Installation instructions
4.1 Guidelines for safety and installation
This installation guide must be consulted in all cases when manipulating parts which are marked
with the Caution symbol.
The installation and the operation of this device and any maintenance must be carried out by a
qualified person in accordance with specific local standards and safety regulations.
Caution: never open the secondary circuit of a Current Transformer while current is flowing
through the primary circuit!
If the secondary circuit is opened when primary current is flowing, then the voltage will go to a very
high value, possibly causing electrical arcing and/or electrical shock to service personnel. Therefore
CT’s with internal TVS must be used.
Failing to obey the ”Guidelines for safety and installation”, the guarantee no longer applies.
4.2 Mounting
Mount the device in a DIN rail cabinet.
4.3 Electrical wiring diagram
WARNING
The DINgate DSO module power connection always needs to be protected with a circuit
breaker.

4.5 Insert/extract SIM card
The DINgate DSO has as slot on the front to insert a SIM card:
-Formfactor: mini SIM or 2FF
-To insert: push the SIM, with the contact area on the right side, in the slot until it clicks.
-To extract: push the SIM a bit further in the housing until it clicks and then release it to let it spring back.
4.6 LTE Antenna
The antenna used to connect to the DINgate DSO needs to have an SMA male connector.
The supported bands need to correspond with the bands provided by the SIM operator within the available LTE and
GPRS bands. (see 3.6)
4.7 Mains power
DANGER
Working with high voltages is a potential danger to life. Persons exposed to high voltages can suffer
cardiac arrest, burns or other serious injuries. To avoid such accidents, make sure to disconnect the
power supply before starting the installation.

5Operating instructions
The DINgate DSO module in combination with the ABB E-meter acts as small version of a smart meter.
The unit supports the industry-standard protocol DLMS-COSEM for the WAN connection. This protocol implements
the SMR5 application layer.
The DINgate module gives visual feedback on its working state by its 2 Status LED Indicators:
5.1 PWR –POWER Status LED –Red LED
•Not lit: DINgate module is not powered
•Blinking: DINgate module is powered, but did not (yet) able to readout the ABB meter
•Lit: DINgate module is powered, and has readout the ABB meter
5.2 WAN –Network Status LED –Green LED
•Not lit: The DINgate module is not connected to a radio network.
This may have one of the following causes
-No or wrong SIM card (disabled)
-No network coverage
-Modem is defect
•Blinking: The DINgate module is registered to the radio network
In this state the module is able to receive an SMS or RING trigger. No end to end data
session with the head-end system can be established.
•Lit: The DINgate module is registered to the radio network and a PDP context was established.
This means the module got an IP address from the network and the head-end system is
able to establish a data connection with the module.
Warning: the nominal state of the network status LED depends on the configuration of the module:
1. Always on configuration: Nominal state is 'LED Lit'.
This means the module can always be reached on its IP address by the head-
end system.
2. Triggered configuration: Nominal state is 'LED blinking'.
In this state the module first needs to receive a ‘trigger’ before a PDP context
will be established and the LED temporary be lit.
5.3 Service button
For future use.
