AI Technical Summary
Most existing smart meters lack Bluetooth fault detection capabilities, making it impossible to detect Bluetooth communication failures in a timely manner, resulting in inaccurate meter readings.
A startup circuit, including resistors, capacitors, transistors, and MOSFETs, is added between the MCU and Bluetooth module of the energy meter. The heartbeat response mechanism is used to initially detect whether the Bluetooth module is faulty, and combined with timed reset control, multiple in-depth detections are achieved in a time-division manner.
It improves the accuracy of Bluetooth module fault detection, avoids misjudgments caused by signal interference, and ensures the accuracy and reliability of meter reading.
