04-4 Seminar at Metering Europe
Seminar at Metering Europe
Follow-up in Bangalore/India
The DLMS User Association is a traditional and ardent supporter of the Metering Europe exhibition and conference, which took place this year in Berlin from 27th to 30th of September. We are present with a booth, with a paper and the General Meeting is also held at the same time and place.
This was the third year when we teamed up with Synergy to organise a Pre-conference Seminar on DLMS/COSEM, an event attracting an ever-growing number of people. This year 19 participants from Armenia, Bahrain, Cyprus, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, India, Japan and the Netherlands followed the lectures, which of course were updated with new features as e.g. DLMS/COSEM using Internet technologies. Based on earlier pre-conferences in Amsterdam and Paris, the presentations were backed up by printed material, by a CD with the animated slide show on it, and with download possibilities for participants and members of the DLMS User Association. The show is divided into 6 Training Packs (Introduction, the COSEM model, Accessing and transporting the data, Examples, Deliverables, and Conformance testing).
The next event is a 4 days tutorial held in Bangalore (India) from 30th November to 3rd December 2004. It is organised by Central Power Research Institute, giving an opportunity to meter operators, system integrators and product developers to learn about DLMS/COSEM, to understand main principles and benefits, the market situation, practical experience and to gather information necessary for specifying, developing and operating DLMS/COSEM based metering systems.
