Embodiment 1
[0047] see figure 1 , the present invention discloses a clock calibration method for a wireless meter reading system. The wireless meter reading system includes several management servers, several meter reading machines, and several gas meters (of course other meter bodies can be used); according to the installation position of the gas meter dividing the plurality of gas meters into multiple groups, each group including a main module and several submodules;
[0048] Described clock calibration method comprises the steps:
[0049] S1. All management servers perform network time synchronization through the NCP protocol to ensure that the clocks of all management servers are consistent;
[0050] S2. When the meter reading machine downloads the meter reading task, the clock of the meter reading machine is updated;
[0051] S3. When reading the meter, synchronize the time between the meter reading machine and the main modules of all groups;
[0052]S4. During timing communicatio...
Embodiment 2
[0060] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that, in this embodiment, the step S4 includes:
[0061] In the set time period, the regular communication calibration time is initiated by the main module of each group. The main module sends its own clock to each sub-module, and the sub-module immediately updates its own time with the received time.
[0062] The meter reading machine with a standard clock is synchronized with the gas meter. The gas meter saves the clock of the meter reading machine and does not update it immediately. The gas meter still runs with the old clock and records the error between the clock of the meter reading machine and the old clock. Under normal circumstances, the handheld meter reading machine generally only synchronizes the time with the main module of each group; This sub-module is time-synchronized.
[0063] The main module of the gas meter is paired with the meter reading machine. The main module uses the old clock to start...
Embodiment 3
[0066] Step 1: (resolve clock skew within the group)
[0067] 1.1 Initially, set the time for each gas meter in the group through the handheld meter reading machine with the standard clock.
[0068] 1.2 Daily regular communication is initiated by the main module, which sends its own clock to each sub-module, and the sub-module immediately updates its own time with the received time. (Because the error of one day is small, it can guarantee the normal progress of regular communication. Through daily time synchronization, the cumulative error can be eliminated).
[0069] 1.3 When the meter reading machine with a standard clock is synchronized with the gas meter, the gas meter saves the clock of the meter reading machine and does not update it immediately. The gas meter still runs with the old clock and records the error between the clock of the meter reading machine and the old clock. If the header is a sub-module, start the timing relay communication with the old clock that nig...
