[0027] At present, the functions of the electric meter boxes on the market are too simple, and there is no special anti-electricity theft function. Electricity thieves can open the meter box at will to steal electricity. Moreover, this method of stealing electricity is very simple and crude, and it is difficult for staff to collect evidence. In the prior art, a meter seal is used to prevent users from opening the meter box, but it is very easy to open the meter seal, which only requires a pair of pliers, and there are also a large number of forged seals for sale on the Internet, which brings considerable difficulty to our anti-electricity theft work.

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0030] The method embodiments provided in the embodiments of the present application can be executed in a mobile terminal, a computer terminal or a similar computing device. Taking running on a mobile terminal as an example, Figure 1 1 is a hardware structure block diagram of a mobile terminal of a control method for preventing electricity theft by opening a meter box according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the mobile terminal may include one or more ( Figure 1 Only one is shown in the figure) a processor 102 (the processor 102 may include but is not limited to a processing device such as a microprocessor MCU or a programmable logic device FPGA) and a memory 104 for storing data, wherein the mobile terminal may also include a transmission device 106 and an input / output device 108 for communication functions.

The processor 102 executes various functional applications and data processing by running the computer program stored in the memory 104, that is, the above method is implemented. The memory 104 may include a high-speed random access memory, and may also include a non-volatile memory, such as one or more magnetic storage devices, flash memory, or other non-volatile solid-state memory.

In one example, the transmission device 106 may be a radio frequency (RF) module, which is used to communicate with the Internet wirelessly.

[0032] In this embodiment, a control method for preventing electricity theft by opening a meter box is provided, which runs on a mobile terminal, a computer terminal or a similar computing device. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in an order different from that shown here.

[0033] Figure 2FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a control method for preventing electricity theft by opening a meter box according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0034] Step S201, control step: when the opening signal of the meter box is obtained, the meter box is controlled to generate target verification information, and the target verification information is sent to the receiving device of the meter box so that the receiving device receives and displays the target verification information, and transmits the target verification information to the verification module of the meter box.

[0035] Specifically, by obtaining the opening signal of the meter box, the meter box can be triggered to generate target verification information and send it to the receiving device, thereby realizing status monitoring and verification of the meter box. The target verification information is received and displayed by the receiving device to ensure that the status information of the meter box is transmitted and monitored in real time. The target verification information is transmitted to the verification module of the meter box to realize verification and detection of the meter box, effectively preventing the meter box from being opened by unauthorized personnel to steal electricity, improving the safety and anti-theft performance of the meter box, and timely discovering abnormal conditions of the meter box, reducing power losses and safety hazards, and improving the reliability and stability of the power system.

[0036] Step S202, an acquisition step: acquiring the verification information received by the verification module, where the verification information is an external input signal acquired by the verification module.

[0037] Specifically, obtaining the verification information received by the verification module can verify whether the user has the legal authority to open the meter box. By obtaining the external input signal through the verification module and verifying it, the opening status of the meter box can be monitored in time to ensure that only authorized users can open the meter box, thereby effectively preventing the occurrence of electricity theft, thereby improving the safety of the electric meter, preventing illegal opening of the meter box to steal electricity, and protecting the normal operation of the power system.

[0038] Step S203, judgment step: judge whether the verification information meets the target verification information, and when the judgment result indicates yes, open the meter box.

[0039] Specifically, by verifying information to confirm whether there is authority to open the meter box, it can be ensured that only authorized personnel can open the meter box, effectively preventing unauthorized personnel from opening the meter box to steal electricity, and ensuring the safety and stability of the power supply. When the verification information meets the target verification information, the operation of opening the meter box will be allowed, thereby ensuring the safety and reliability of the meter box.

[0040] Step S204, loop step: when the judgment result indicates no, the update step, control step, acquisition step and judgment step are executed in a loop until the judgment result of the judgment step indicates yes and stops, wherein the update step includes: outputting an indication signal to the verification module, so that the verification module sends the indication signal to the meter box, and the meter box generates updated target verification information according to the indication signal.

[0041] Specifically, by continuously updating the target verification information, and the target verification information will automatically become invalid after a preset time period (such as 1 minute), the difficulty for electricity thieves to crack it can be increased, thereby increasing the cost and risk of electricity theft. By cyclically executing the updating, controlling, acquiring and judging steps, the meter box can be effectively prevented from being stolen electricity, increasing the cost and risk of electricity theft, and reducing the frequency of electricity theft, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the power system and the legitimate rights and interests of users.

[0042] The present application controls the meter box to generate target verification information when the meter box's opening signal is obtained, and sends the target verification information to the receiving device of the meter box, so that the receiving device receives and displays the target verification information, and transmits the target verification information to the verification module of the meter box; obtains the verification information received by the verification module; determines whether the verification information satisfies the target verification information, and opens the meter box when the judgment result indicates yes; when the judgment result indicates no, cyclically executes the instructing the meter box to generate updated target verification information and the above steps until the judgment result of the judgment step indicates yes and stops. The opening signal of the meter box is obtained, and the opened target verification information is cyclically verified until the verification is correct. Ensure that the person who opens the meter box is an authorized person to prevent the meter box from stealing electricity.

[0043] During the specific implementation process, the above method also includes the following steps: determining whether the number of cycles of the cycle step is greater than the preset number, and if the number of cycles is greater than the preset number, the alarm module of the control meter box sounds an alarm and sends a first alarm message to the management platform.

[0044] In this scheme, when the number of cycles of the loop step exceeds the preset number, possible abnormal situations are discovered in time, that is, the meter box may be illegally opened, resulting in electricity theft. By controlling the alarm module of the meter box to issue an alarm and sending the first alarm information to the management platform, the effect of monitoring and safety precautions can be improved, and measures can be taken in time to prevent the occurrence of electricity theft, thereby ensuring the safe operation of power equipment and the safety of electricity use.

[0045] Optionally, the first alarm information may include but is not limited to: failure to open the meter box, too long opening time, abnormality of the electric meter or illegal opening, etc.

[0046] During the specific implementation process, the above method also includes the following steps: when the alarm information is obtained, the control management platform outputs confirmation identity information; obtains the target identity information, and determines whether the target identity information satisfies the confirmation identity information. When the target identity information satisfies the confirmation identity information, the control meter box is reset and the alarm is stopped. The target identity information is the external input information obtained by the verification module after the management platform outputs the confirmation identity information.

[0047] In this solution, when an alarm message is received, the situation may be due to an erroneous operation by the staff. At this time, the erroneous operation correction step will be entered, and the system will require confirmation of the identity information. Only when the target identity information matches the confirmed identity information will the system reset the meter box and stop the alarm. This can ensure that only legitimate operators can operate the meter box, effectively prevent criminals from illegally opening the meter box, ensure the safety and stable operation of power equipment, and help the management platform to timely understand the identity information of the operator and improve the efficiency and accuracy of safety management.

[0048] Specifically, the above-mentioned target identity information is pre-recorded by the main control board, that is, the recorded opening time and opening personnel information, which may include but is not limited to: the time of successful verification, the geographical location information of the meter box, and the name and work number of the staff operating the verification device. This information is used to analyze the usage status and management records of the meter box. By recording the time and personnel information of each opening in detail, the power company can track the usage history of the meter box, analyze the opening mode, and promptly discover abnormal opening behavior. It is suitable for scenarios such as power facility maintenance and safety audits, and helps to improve the transparency and efficiency of facility management.

[0049] During the specific implementation process, the above method also includes the following steps: judging whether the meter box is illegally opened according to the status of the meter box and the judgment result of the verification module; if the meter box is illegally opened, the alarm module of the control meter box sends an alarm and sends a second alarm message to the management platform.

[0050] In this scheme, by monitoring the status of the meter box and the judgment result of the verification module, it is possible to promptly detect whether the meter box has been illegally opened, so that timely measures can be taken to prevent electricity theft. Once the meter box is illegally opened, the alarm module that controls the meter box will sound an alarm, which can scare away the electricity thief and alert the surrounding personnel to handle the electricity theft incident in a timely manner. In addition to the local alarm, by sending a second alarm message to the management platform, relevant personnel can be informed of the occurrence of the electricity theft incident in a timely manner, take further measures to improve the efficiency and accuracy of handling the electricity theft incident.

[0051] Optionally, the content of the second alarm information may be that the meter box is illegally opened, or may be information such as the specific location where the meter box is illegally opened, so as to promptly dispatch personnel to the site for processing.

[0052] In a specific implementation process, the above-mentioned identity information includes at least one of the following: the work number of the manager of the meter box and the code of the meter box.

[0053] In this solution, by requiring managers to enter their work numbers and meter box codes to open the meter box, it can ensure that only authorized personnel can access the inside of the meter box, effectively preventing illegal opening of the meter box, thereby reducing the risk of narrow power supply, ensuring power safety and stable supply, and can also help monitor and track the opening records of the meter box, making it easier for managers to trace and verify.

[0054] From the above, it can be seen that the above-mentioned verification module can be a mobile phone APP. When opening, the staff needs to connect the device through the APP, send a random password to the mobile phone through the device, and then enter the correct random password in the APP to open the meter door. At the same time, the person who opens the meter needs to record the opening time data in the background. When the meter box is opened illegally, a voice warning can be generated in the background, and a message will be sent to the staff, prompting the staff to go to the scene to promptly seize the electricity theft. Two authentication methods are also provided, which can effectively prevent illegal opening of the meter box and issue an alarm in time.

[0055] The embodiment of the present application also provides a control device for preventing the meter box from being opened and stealing electricity. It should be noted that the control device for preventing the meter box from being opened and stealing electricity in the embodiment of the present application can be used to execute the control method for preventing the meter box from being opened and stealing electricity provided in the embodiment of the present application. The device is used to implement the above-mentioned embodiments and preferred implementation modes, and the descriptions that have been made will not be repeated. As used below, the term "module" can be a combination of software and / or hardware that implements a predetermined function. Although the device described in the following embodiments is preferably implemented in software, the implementation of hardware, or a combination of software and hardware, is also possible and conceivable.

[0056] The following is an introduction to the control device for preventing electricity theft by opening the meter box provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0057] Figure 3 1 is a structural block diagram of a control device for preventing electricity theft by opening a meter box according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 As shown, the device includes: a control module 31, an acquisition module 32, a judgment module 33 and a circulation module 34.

[0058] The control module 31 is used to control the meter box to generate target verification information when the meter box opening signal is obtained, and send the target verification information to the receiving device of the meter box so that the receiving device receives and displays the target verification information, and transmits the target verification information to the verification module of the meter box.

[0059] The acquisition module 32 is used to acquire the verification information received by the verification module, where the verification information is an external input signal acquired by the verification module.

[0060] The judging module 33 is used to judge whether the verification information satisfies the target verification information, and if the judgment result indicates yes, the meter box is opened.

[0061] The loop module 34 is used to loop the updating step, the control step of the control module, the acquisition step of the acquisition module and the judgment step of the judgment module when the judgment result indicates no, and stop when the judgment result of the judgment step indicates yes, wherein the updating step includes: outputting an indication signal to the verification module, so that the verification module sends the indication signal to the meter box, and the meter box generates updated target verification information according to the indication signal.

[0062] The control module of the present application is used to control the meter box to generate target verification information when the meter box's opening signal is obtained, and send the target verification information to the receiving device of the meter box, so that the receiving device receives and displays the target verification information, and transmits the target verification information to the verification module of the meter box; the acquisition module is used to obtain the verification information received by the verification module; the judgment module is used to judge whether the verification information meets the target verification information, and open the meter box when the judgment result indicates yes; the loop module is used to loop the execution of the target verification information and the above steps according to the generation of updated instructions to the meter box when the judgment result indicates no, until the judgment result of the judgment step indicates yes and stops. By obtaining the opening signal of the meter box and looping the verification of the opened target verification information until the verification is correct. Ensure that the person opening the meter box is an authorized person to prevent the meter box from stealing electricity.

[0063] During the specific implementation process, the above-mentioned device also includes a first judgment module, which is used to judge whether the number of cycles of the cycle step is greater than the preset number. When it is judged that the number of cycles is greater than the preset number, the alarm module of the control meter box sends an alarm and sends a first alarm message to the management platform.

[0064] In this scheme, when the number of cycles of the loop step exceeds the preset number, possible abnormal situations are discovered in time, that is, the meter box may be illegally opened, resulting in electricity theft. By controlling the alarm module of the meter box to issue an alarm and sending the first alarm information to the management platform, the effect of monitoring and safety precautions can be improved, and measures can be taken in time to prevent the occurrence of electricity theft, thereby ensuring the safe operation of power equipment and the safety of electricity use.

[0065] During the specific implementation process, the above-mentioned device also includes a first control module and a first acquisition module. The first control module is used to control the management platform to output confirmation identity information when the alarm information is obtained; the first acquisition module is used to obtain target identity information and determine whether the target identity information meets the confirmation identity information. When the target identity information meets the confirmation identity information, the control meter box is reset and the alarm is stopped. The target identity information is the external input information obtained by the verification module after the management platform outputs the confirmation identity information.

[0066] In this solution, when an alarm message is received, the system will ask for confirmation of the identity information. Only when the target identity information matches the confirmed identity information will the system reset the meter box and stop the alarm. This can ensure that only legitimate operators can operate the meter box, effectively preventing criminals from illegally opening the meter box, ensuring the safety and stable operation of power equipment, and helping the management platform to timely understand the identity information of the operator and improve the efficiency and accuracy of safety management.

[0067] During the specific implementation process, the above-mentioned device also includes a second judgment module and a second control module. The second judgment module is used to judge whether the meter box is illegally opened according to the state of the meter box and the judgment result of the verification module; the second control module is used to control the alarm module of the meter box to issue an alarm and send a second alarm information to the management platform when the meter box is illegally opened.

[0068] In this scheme, by monitoring the status of the meter box and the judgment result of the verification module, it is possible to promptly detect whether the meter box has been illegally opened, so that timely measures can be taken to prevent electricity theft. Once the meter box is illegally opened, the alarm module that controls the meter box will sound an alarm, which can deter the electricity thief and alert the surrounding personnel to handle the electricity theft incident in a timely manner. In addition to the local alarm, by sending a second alarm message to the management platform, relevant personnel can be informed of the occurrence of the electricity theft incident in a timely manner, take further measures to improve the efficiency and accuracy of handling the electricity theft incident.

[0069] In a specific implementation process, the above-mentioned identity information includes at least one of the following: the work number of the manager of the meter box and the code of the meter box.

Figure 4 As shown, the device includes a main control board, a communication module, a receiving device and a verification device, wherein:

[0075] The main control board is electrically connected to the communication module. The main control board generates target verification information and sends the target verification information to the communication module.

[0076] Specifically, through the transmission of the target verification information generated by the main control board and the communication module, real-time monitoring and remote control of the meter box can be achieved. When someone tries to open the meter box, the verification device will detect it and communicate with the main control board. If the verification information does not match, the receiving device will automatically trigger an alarm or shut down the power, thereby preventing electricity theft.

[0077] The communication module is electrically connected to the receiving device, and the communication module sends the target verification information to the receiving device.

[0078] Specifically, the main control board communicates with the receiving device through the communication module and sends the target verification information to the receiving device, thereby realizing the control and verification of the meter box. Through the application of the verification device, the electric meter can be remotely monitored and managed, thereby improving the efficiency and convenience of power management.

[0079] The verification device is electrically connected to the receiving device respectively. The receiving device sends the target verification information to the verification device. The verification device pre-stores the target verification information and obtains the input verification information to determine whether the verification information is consistent with the target verification information. When the verification information is determined to be consistent with the target verification information, a confirmation signal is sent to the main control board, and the main control board opens the meter box.

[0080] Specifically, by comparing the input verification information with the verification device, it can ensure that only verified information can open the meter box, effectively preventing unauthorized personnel from opening the meter box and avoiding the theft of electric energy resources. The communication module can realize remote monitoring and management to improve the safety and reliability of the equipment.

[0081] The equipment proposed in this application is comprehensively designed, which not only improves the safety of the meter box, but also simplifies the management process of the power company. It is suitable for scenarios such as power facilities and public safety equipment that require remote monitoring and on-site verification, effectively preventing illegal operations and ensuring the security of equipment and data.

[0082] Specifically, the main control board is connected to the door edge travel switch through an IO node to receive the signal input of the meter box door status and determine whether the meter box door is opened. The 4G communication module and the Bluetooth communication module can communicate with the main control board independently or simultaneously to realize remote transmission of information and direct connection of on-site equipment, thereby improving the adaptability and communication reliability of the device.

[0083] In the specific implementation process, Figure 4 As shown, the above-mentioned device also includes a voice module and a door edge travel switch, wherein: the voice module is electrically connected to the main control board, and when the main control board receives the verification signal of the verification device, the main control board controls the voice module to perform voice broadcast; the door edge travel switch is electrically connected to the main control board, and the door edge travel switch is used to receive the status signal of the meter box, and the status includes the meter box being opened and the meter box being closed.

[0084] In this solution, when someone tries to open the meter box, the door edge travel switch will send a status signal to the main control board. The main control board will confirm whether there is an authorized person operating by verifying the signal of the verification device. If the verification is successful, the main control board will control the voice module to give a voice prompt to remind the personnel to pay attention to monitoring, so as to detect and prevent electricity theft in time and ensure the safety and normal operation of power equipment.

[0085] Specifically, the above-mentioned voice module plays voice information according to the instructions of the main control board, including voice prompts of successful verification, failed verification and illegal opening warning. The door edge travel switch is installed at the edge of the meter box door. When the meter box door is opened, the switch state changes and sends a signal to the main control board, triggering the response mechanism of the main control board.

[0086] Specifically, Figure 4As shown, the main control board is connected to the 4G communication module, the Bluetooth communication module and the voice module through serial ports respectively. Serial port 1 of the main control board is connected to the 4G module (communication module), serial port 2 of the main control board is connected to the Bluetooth module, serial port 3 of the main control board is connected to the voice module, and is connected to the door edge travel switch through the IO node to realize the monitoring and control of the opening status of the meter box door. This modular design makes the maintenance and upgrading of the device more convenient, suitable for daily maintenance of power facilities and rapid response in emergency situations, and improves the stability and safety of the equipment.

[0087] In the specific implementation process, Figure 4 As shown, the above-mentioned device also includes a power module and a storage module, wherein: the power module is electrically connected to the main control board for supplying power to the meter box; the storage module is electrically connected to the main control board and the door edge travel switch for recording the number of times the meter box is opened.

[0088] In this solution, the communication module, receiving device and verification device are controlled by the main control board to realize remote monitoring and management of the meter box to ensure the safe use of electricity in the meter box. The above-mentioned power module can supply power to the meter box to ensure the normal operation of the equipment. The storage module records the number of times the meter box is opened, which can help monitor the use of the meter box and detect abnormal situations in time. It can effectively prevent the meter box from being opened by unauthorized personnel, thereby ensuring the safety of electricity and improving the efficiency of electricity utilization.

[0089] Specifically, the power module is used to convert 220V AC power into 12V DC power to power the device. The power module is connected to the main control board, 4G communication module and Bluetooth communication module through a power line to provide stable 12V DC power for these modules.

[0090] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the power module is connected to the metering meter and is powered by 220V AC power provided by the metering meter. It does not affect the normal operation of the metering meter, can ensure the continuous operation of the anti-electricity theft device, and avoid interference with electricity metering. It is suitable for long-term monitoring of power facilities to ensure the accuracy of electricity metering and the effectiveness of anti-electricity theft measures.

[0091] In addition, if Figure 4As shown, the device is connected to the metering meter through a 485 bus for synchronizing data and records, which is convenient for subsequent query and management. The record data of each normal opening of the meter door or illegal opening of the meter is sent to the metering meter through the 485 bus. The metering meter stores all records for subsequent query. Through this data synchronization mechanism, the power company can grasp the power usage and the opening record of the meter box in real time, which is suitable for the refined management of power facilities, improves the utilization efficiency of power resources and the intelligent level of facility management, and the device has a backup power supply. When the main power supply fails, it ensures the normal operation of the control module and maintains the alarm and recording functions of the device. The redundant design can ensure that the device can still operate normally under unforeseen circumstances such as extreme weather or power failures. It is suitable for all-weather monitoring of power facilities to ensure the safety of power facilities and the interests of power companies.

[0092] In order to enable those skilled in the art to more clearly understand the technical solution of the present application, the implementation process of the control method for preventing meter box from being opened and electricity theft of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0093] This embodiment relates to a specific control device for preventing electricity from being stolen by opening a meter box, such as Figure 5 As shown, the operation of the device includes the following steps:

[0094] Step 1: Use the mobile phone APP to turn on Bluetooth;

[0095] Step 2: Connect the mobile phone APP to the device's Bluetooth module;

[0096] Step 3: Select the verification code return method via SMS or Bluetooth module, and then click the Get Verification Code button on the mobile APP;

[0097] Step 4: If the verification code is returned by SMS, the main control board will detect the command sent by the 4G module through serial port 1, or if the verification code is returned by Bluetooth module, the main control board will detect the command sent by the Bluetooth module through serial port 2. The main control board randomly generates a 4-digit verification code from 1 to 9 and sends it through serial port 1 to connect to the 4G module or serial port 2 to connect to the Bluetooth module;

[0098] Step 5: If the verification code is returned by SMS, the mobile phone will receive a verification SMS containing a 4-digit verification code. If the Bluetooth module returns the verification code, the received verification code will be directly displayed on the APP;

[0099] Step 6: Enter the verification code you received on the APP, and then click the Generate Verification Code button;

[0100] Step 7: The main control board will compare the received 4-digit verification code with the generated verification code. If they are consistent, the verification is successful and the voice module will issue a successful verification voice prompt. If the verification fails, a verification failure voice prompt will be issued. You need to repeat steps 3 to 7.

[0101] Step 8: Open the meter door and start working;

[0102] Step 9: After the work is completed, replace the meter door;

[0103] Step 10: Click the restored meter door button on the mobile app, and the device will prompt a voice prompt that the meter door has been reset.

[0104] This embodiment relates to another specific control device for preventing the opening of the meter box from stealing electricity, such as Figure 6 As shown, the operation of the device includes the following steps:

[0105] Step 1: Illegal opening of the meter door;

[0106] Step 2: Voice prompt warning (non-staff members are prohibited from opening the meter door);

[0107] Step 3: The device sends a notification SMS to the power supply bureau administrator;

[0108] Step 4: Remove the warning message and reset the device via SMS or mobile app.

[0109] Specifically, the main control board compares the received verification code with the pre-generated random verification code. If they are consistent, the meter box door is opened and the opening time and the information of the person who opened it are recorded. If they are inconsistent, a warning voice of verification failure is played through the voice module. When the meter box door is illegally opened by non-verification means, the door edge travel switch is triggered, and the main control board immediately plays an illegal opening warning voice through the voice module, and sends an alarm message to the remote monitoring center through the 4G communication module. This can effectively prevent unauthorized personnel from opening the meter box. It is suitable for scenarios such as power companies and public facility management, especially in high-risk areas, and can significantly reduce the occurrence of electricity theft.

[0110] Specifically, when the above-mentioned main control board detects illegal opening, it immediately plays a warning voice through the voice module. The warning voice contains a preset warning message and a preliminary judgment of illegal opening. At the same time, the main control board sends an alarm message to the remote monitoring center through the 4G communication module. The alarm information may include but is not limited to: the time and place of illegal opening, the preliminary judgment of the opening method and the identity information of the meter box, so that the monitoring center can quickly locate and take measures. Through the immediate response mechanism, a warning can be issued at the first time of illegal opening, which not only deters potential electricity thieves, but also facilitates the monitoring center to grasp the safety status of the facilities in real time. It is suitable for scenarios such as power facilities and financial equipment that require real-time monitoring, and improves the timeliness and effectiveness of safety response.

[0114] Step S202, an acquisition step: acquiring the verification information received by the verification module, where the verification information is an external input signal acquired by the verification module.

[0115] Step S203, judgment step: judge whether the verification information meets the target verification information, and when the judgment result indicates yes, open the meter box.

[0116] Step S204, loop step: when the judgment result indicates no, the update step, control step, acquisition step and judgment step are executed in a loop until the judgment result of the judgment step indicates yes and stops, wherein the update step includes: outputting an indication signal to the verification module, so that the verification module sends the indication signal to the meter box, and the meter box generates updated target verification information according to the indication signal.
