Remote control meter reading system and control method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a remote control meter reading system and a control method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of meter reading systems. The remote control meter reading system includes a meter, a meter reading terminal, a data concentrator and a management center; wherein the management center comprises a manufacturer center and a property center; the meter is connected with the meter reading terminal in a bidirectional communication manner, the meter reading terminal is connected with the data concentrator in a bidirectional communication manner, and the data concentrator isconnected with the manufacturer center in a bidirectional communication manner, so that bidirectional data transmission can be realized between the manufacturer center and the meter, and meanwhile, the manufacturer center can send control command information to the meter to realize the control over the meter. In comparison with the prior art, the remote control meter reading system provided by theinvention has the beneficial effects that water, electricity and gas consumption data of a user family can be monitored in real time, abnormal conditions can be discovered in time, then the manufacturer center sends a control command to enable the meter to cut off the supply of abnormal water, electricity and gas, thus the abnormal condition handling efficiency is improved, and potential safety hazards are reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of meter reading systems, in particular to a remote-controlled meter reading system and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the development of urban construction, the scale of residential quarters is expanding day by day. At present, the transcription of water, electricity and gas meters in residential quarters mainly relies on meter readers to carry out door-to-door. The increasingly complicated meter reading work has greatly increased the workload of meter readers. At the same time, due to the difficulty in coordinating the time between the meter reader and the user, the efficiency of meter reading is greatly reduced. [0003] At present, the common meter reading system on the market mainly collects the data of water, electricity and gas meters through the meter reading system to the manufacturer's center for cumulative calculation to obtain the water and electricity consumption.

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, this type of meter reading system does not have a remote control function. When the water and electricity consumption data is sent abnormally, the water and electricity company mainly confirms the cause of the abnormality by contacting the user. After the user confirms the cause of the abnormality, guide the user or arrange technical personnel to come to solve the problem , due to the long waiting time of this process, it is easy to miss the best time to solve the problem, especially when the user is not at home at work or on a business trip, the abnormal situation cannot be confirmed in time, resulting in serious security incidents

Accidents such as bursting water pipes causing water ingress into houses, short circuits causing fires, and gas leakage causing fires are not uncommon, bringing huge economic losses to the people.
