This International Standard specifies DLMS/COSEM wired and wireless M-Bus communication profiles for local and neighbourhood networks.

Setting up and managing the M-Bus communication channels of M-Bus devices, the M-Bus network, registering slave devices and – when required – repeaters is out of the scope of this International Standard.

The scope of this communication profile standard is restricted to aspects concerning the use of communication protocols in conjunction with the COSEM data model and the DLMS/COSEM application layer. Data structures specific to a communication protocol are out of the scope of this standard. Any project-specific definitions of data structures and data contents may be provided in project-specific companion specifications.

Annex A(informative) provides information on M-Bus frame structures, addressing schemes and an encoding example.

Annex B (normative) points to COSEM interface classes to set up and manage the wired and wireless M-Bus communication channel.

Annex C (informative) provides MSCs for representative instances of communication.
