Property Description
The frequency in which the SmartServer’s internal data server
polls the M-Bus data point. The recommended minimum poll
rate is 30 seconds; the maximum poll rate is 1 second.
The default poll rate for M-Bus data points is 10 seconds.
Note: The actual poll rate is determined by calculating the least
common denominator of all the poll rates set for the data point
from the applications to which it has been added.
Specifies the type (read or write) of the M-Bus data point. This
property may have one of the following values:

Using the Set Function on M-Bus Data Points
You can use the Set function to overwrite the configuration of an M-Bus data point, or to create a new
M-Bus data point. The input parameters you supply to the function will include one or more
elements. Each

(or modified) M-Bus data point. This set of properties is the same whether you are creating a new
M-Bus data point or modifying an existing M-Bus data point.
• If you are modifying an existing M-Bus data point, you must specify the
In addition, all other properties should be filled; otherwise the values stored in them are erased.
The previous section, Using the Get Function on M-Bus Data Points, details the properties you
can include in the Set function.
You can set multiple M-Bus data points with a single Set message. However, you should not attempt
to create or write to more than 100 M-Bus data points with a single call to the Set function. The
following example demonstrates how to create a new M-Bus data point.
