Pulse inputs to RS485 Push 3 protocol with Raspberry Pi
I would like comments about the feasibility of using a Raspberry Pi (or Arduino board) to read multiple pulse inputs (6) and send/receive messages over RS485 using the Push3 protocol; and then use the EKM Cloud to process data. I know how to read the inputs and could handle parsing the protocol, but are there anything that would prevent this from working? Essentially, I am simulating an Omnimeter Pulse Meter. Is there C-Code for a IEC 62056 meter that would be a good starting point?

One possible issue is the Meter Number. The Dash program wanted me to enter a "valid" number, but seemed to accepted a bogus number.

The EKM Push3 will only read data from the Omnimeters it is assigned to. So there would not be a point to spoof an Omnimeter Pulse v.4. You would have to spoof an Omnimeter Pulse v.4 number that you already own. In short, I do not know of an easy way to do this, or a reason to do it.
