Method and device for reading electric meter information

Abstract

The invention provides a method and device for reading electric meter information, which are applied to a terminal device comprising an infrared transmitting module and an infrared receiving module. The terminal device comprises a mobile phone or a personal digital assistant (PDA). The method comprises the following steps: detecting whether a selection operation, input by a user, for selecting a meter item to be read is received; if the selection operation is received, transmitting, by the infrared transmitting module, the meter item information to be read, selected through the selection operation, to a smart electric meter; and receiving, by the infrared receiving module, meter item data corresponding to the meter item information to be read and sent by the smart electric meter. The method is convenient for users to check the meter item data of the smart electric meter, solves the problem of 'difficulty in meter reading' generally reflected by customers after replacing electronic meters, reduces customers' complaints to power supply enterprises, and can also facilitate workers to obtain various data of an electric energy meter on the spot and has the technical effect of improvingworking efficiency on the spot because workers do not have to resort to a meter reading machine.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of smart electric meters, in particular to a method and device for reading electric meter information. Background technique [0002] At present, in order to achieve remote meter reading, ensure more accurate meter billing, and record related meter events, both China Southern Power Grid and State Grid have started the work of replacing old mechanical energy meters with large-scale electronic energy meters. The electric energy meter has basically replaced the mechanical electric energy meter. However, there is a problem with the electronic energy meter. Because of the large amount of data information recorded and displayed, various data can only be scrolled and displayed on the screen of the energy meter, and some data will not be displayed on the screen. Limited by the area of ​​the display screen of the energy meter, it is difficult for non-professionals to view the data of the energy meter, which leads to ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Limited by the area of ​​the display screen of the energy meter, it is difficult for non-professionals to view the data of the energy meter, which leads to great opinions and complaints from electricity customers

In addition, even if it is a professional meter reading worker, it is difficult to read the meter due to the influence of the installation position of the electric energy meter, the impact of the meter box, the on-site environment, and the wheel display of the electric energy meter. It is inconvenient to use a special meter reading machine to achieve meter reading.

[0003] Since the various data of the electronic energy meter need to be displayed in rotation on the display screen, and the energy meters produced by different manufacturers in different periods have different explanations for the displayed data, the meter reader must use a special meter reading machine to compare the data. It is convenient to read the relevant energy data of the energy meter. It is even more difficult for general electricity customers to check the energy meter reading, and some data recorded by the energy meter are not displayed on the screen. Special equipment is required to cooperate with the software developed by the energy meter manufacturer. can only be read, failing to give full play to the advantages of electronic energy meters
