The document describes an E-meter demonstration board based on the STM32F103VE microcontroller, ST7570 PLM modem, ALTAIR04-900 power supply IC and, optionally, STPMC1/S2 poly-phase energy metering ICs. The board implements a PLM smart meter node which allows the final utility to monitor energy consumption and other information.
This user manual guides users through setting up, running, and evaluating a smart metering system based on the STEVAL-IPP002V1 demonstration board. The system uses DLMS/COSEM libraries from ANDREA Informatique and hardware/firmware from STMicroelectronics. It supports power line communication (PLC) via S-FSK modulation using the ST7570 modem. The board includes an STM32F103VE microcontroller and can interface with up to 8 meters. The concentrator, based on SPEAr and ST7570, provides web-based access to meter data and controls.
Safety warnings are included, emphasizing that only expert technicians should handle the board due to high voltage (220 VAC) and energized capacitors. Debugging tools must be used with a mains insulation transformer to avoid damage or injury.
