A C++ daemon that acquires utility meter readings from wired m-bus or wireless wM-Bus (OMS) compatible meters using hardware dongles, rtl-sdr receivers, or serial ports. It decodes raw telegrams into human-readable, CSV, or JSON readings and can publish them via MQTT, REST APIs, databases, or log files.

Use cases

  • read water meter readings wirelessly with rtl-sdr
  • decode wmbus telegrams from my utility meters
  • publish smart meter readings to mqtt for home assistant
  • monitor gas and electricity meters on a raspberry pi
  • convert mbus meter data to
  • collect meter readings from an im871a dongle
  • log water consumption over time

When to choose

  • you have wM-Bus/m-bus compatible utility meters and want automated readings
  • you want to integrate meter data into home automation via MQTT
  • you need a mature decoder with many meter-specific drivers

When to avoid

  • your meters use a proprietary protocol not based on (w)mbus/OMS
  • you need a graphical dashboard rather than a decoding daemon
