ExecSum

FCC ID: TEB-HUNTSU864, GRIDSTREAM RF
Type: FOCUS AXRe-SD, FORM 2S CL200

My local utility company installed one of these doohickies on the house, and now I want to get realtime data from it after reading this article.

Device Info

The smart meter in question: Landis+Gyr FOCUS AXRe-SD FORM 2S CL200

Here is the official landing page for this family of products: https://www.landisgyr.com/product/focus-axe-axre-rxre-platform/

From this page I gather:

  • The base product is called FOCUS AX. The AXe is a product refresh with better specs.
    • Still no lead on the 'R' or '-SD' portions of AXRe-SD. I suspect 'R' is for reactive, as in it can meter reactive loads. Or it means Remote disconnect.
  • Capable of remote disconnect.
    • So as a consumer, I have an interest in these devices both giving me the data I want, but not being imminently pwnable.
  • Built-in tamper detection
  • OTA firmware updates (Cell? Mesh?)
  • Some models have an optical port? IR?
  • Two variations: Modular and Integrated.
    • Modular: with or without AMI comms (AMI is Advanced Metering Infrastructure, but I'm not sure if this means ZigBee, 802.15.4, or something else?)
    • Integrated: With radio built-in (I assume radio != AMI comms?)
