What it does
NVS Konverter USB
Proof the line works
Because the converter powers the bus, a scan reports the true state of the line. Short circuits, broken ends and miswired meters surface on the first scan.
Address scanning
Primary and secondary address scans run on site, so which serial number belongs to which unit is recorded from the start.
One cable at commissioning
No separate power brick to carry. The laptop's USB port powers both the converter and the line.
Brand independent
Any meter producing a standard M-Bus telegram is read; the manufacturer's own software is not needed.

Questions
NVS Konverter USB — frequently asked
How many meters can it read?
A USB-powered converter carries 3 standard M-Bus unit loads — in practice a handful of meters on a short line. For a whole block, use an externally powered GSM or Wi-Fi converter.
Do I need to install a driver?
Current Windows versions detect the device as a virtual COM port on their own. If it is not detected, the driver package is on the download page.
My meters are from different brands — will it work?
Reading is the job of the M-Bus standard, not the meter brand. Heat, hot water and cold water meters and allocators producing EN 13757 telegrams are read regardless of brand.
Can I also configure meters with it?
Yes. On supported devices the NovuSoft meter tools write index, date and period settings, and every write is read back for verification.
