AMR SENSORS- Mode d'emploi / User guide version V1.2
5. Radio frames
The AMR Sensor transmits raw information from sensors using the Wireless M-BUS protocol.
In this chapter, you will find information enabling the Wireless M-Bus frame to be decoded, as well as the location in the information frame
concerning the sensor or sensors associated with the AMR Sensors unit.
NB: AMR Sensors does not either interpret or decode information from the sensor. Decoding into a value and/or unit is the responsibility of the
user once the radio frame is received via its receiver.
The decoding explained below, working from the following example:
•
An AMR Sensors product to which a sensor is connected. The frames transmitted are data frames and log frames.

5.1.2 Identification of the sensor
An AMR Sensors product can handle two sensors. The AMR Sensors unit will therefore send a frame for each of these sensors. The sensor (1 or
2) is identified via the A-Field in the frame :
