IEC TR 62056-41:1998 pdf download – Electricity metering – Data exchange formeter reading, tariff and load control – Part 41: Data exchange using wide area networks:Public switched telephone network (PSTN)with LINK+ protocol.
This technical report describes a three layer data exchange architecture used for communication with large industrial and commercial customers metering equipment (aiming, in particular. at the remote reading of these meters for billing purposes). The public switched telephone network (PSTN) is used as a communicahon medium for this data exchange.
This technical report defines the protocols to be applied for each layer of the architecture (physical, data link and application), making use as far as possible of existing standards, such as
— ITU-T V.22, V.22bis, V.23, V.24, V.25. V,25bis. V.28, V.32, V.32bis and V.41 (ITU-T:
telecommunication standardization sector of the International Telecommunication Union),
— fEC 61334-4-41 which describes the DLMS (Distribution Line Message Specification) model.

2 General description
2.1 Basic vocabulary
All communications involve two sets of equipment represented by the terms Caller system and Called system. The Caller is the system that decides to initiate a communication with a remote system known as the Called party: these denominations remain valid throughout the duration of the communication.
A communication is broken down into a certain number of transactions. Each transaction is represented by a transmission from the Transmitter to the Receiver. During the sequence of transactions, the Caller and Called systems take turns to act as Transmitter and Receiver.
The terms Client and Server have the same meanings as in the DLMS model (see IEC 61334-4-41). The Server is the system that acts as a VDE (see IEC 61334-4-41) for the submission of all special service requests The Client is the system that uses the Server for a specific purpose by means of one or more service requests.
The situation involving a Caller Client and a Called Server is undoubtedly the most frequent case, but a communication based on a Caller Server and a Called Client as also possible, in particular to report the occurrence of an urgent alarm.
