Abstract
A meter network includes a meter configuration having a meter, a communication module, and a remote station for the configuration in a wide area network. The meter and communication module are pairable for a wireless local area communication by using communication technology and communication protocol. The communication module and remote station are connectable for a wide area communication by using network technology and network protocol. The communication module includes a protocol converter for converting data to be communicated via the local area communication, communication module and wide area communication between the communication technology and network technology and between the communication protocol and network protocol. A method for operating the meter network pairs the meter and communication module, connects the communication module and remote station, and uses the protocol converter to convert data between the local area communication technology and network technology and between the communication protocol and network protocol.
