Tenant Utility Billing

المشكلة

Tenant bills depend on monthly manual reads across several meter brands, finance cannot reconcile them against the main incomer, and disputes take weeks to settle.

نظرة عامة على الحل

MILESGO gateways collect data from electricity meters, water meters, BTU / heat meters, gas meters, M-Bus meters over M-Bus / Modbus RTU / DL/T 645, and deliver it to the billing system, the energy management system, the BMS as Modbus TCP / BACnet/IP / MQTT. Field equipment keeps its own protocol and control logic; integration is done by configuration and point mapping, not custom code.

Typical scope

electricity meters
water meters
BTU / heat meters
gas meters
M-Bus meters

Protocol path

M-Bus / Modbus RTU / DL/T 645 → Modbus TCP / BACnet/IP / MQTT

Implementation checklist for the project manager

Record CT ratios, meter IDs and multipliers in the point table; wrong multipliers are the usual cause of billing errors.
M-Bus: check unit loads and cable length per segment; 2-wire M-Bus gateways need a 24 V DC supply.
Configure NTP so trends, alarms and meter readings carry consistent timestamps.
Agree data retention and the report format needed for audits with the quality team at the start.
Fix a site / asset naming convention before the first site so data from all sites can be compared.
Hand over configuration backups, point table, IP plan and as-built drawings, with a short operator training.

Project deliverables

Signed point table and protocol mapping
Gateway configuration files and backups
IP address plan and network drawing
FAT and SAT test records
As-built documentation and operator training

بنية النظام

Field layer: electricity meters, water meters, BTU / heat meters, gas meters, M-Bus meters, connected over M-Bus / Modbus RTU / DL/T 645. Edge and integration layer: MILESGO protocol gateways and edge controllers, mounted on DIN rail in existing panels, polling each device, time-stamping values and buffering them locally. Upper layer: the billing system, the energy management system, the BMS, which receives the data as Modbus TCP / BACnet/IP / MQTT. Remote access for maintenance runs over VPN rather than open internet ports.

خطوات التسليم

1
Site survey and point list
Inventory devices, protocols, register maps, panel space, power and network paths.
2
Design and point table sign-off
Map every point to the target protocol and system; agree it with the client and the upper-system contractor.
3
Configuration and FAT
Build the gateway configuration off site, simulate it and test against the signed point table.
4
Installation and wiring
Mount gateways on DIN rail, wire RS-485 / I/O / Ethernet, apply the IP plan.
5
SAT and alarm tests
Verify values against local readings, test every alarm and command end to end.
6
Handover and support
Hand over configuration backups, point table and as-built documents; train operators.
