How To Fix IR073 - MeasReading transfer: Measuring points have deviating characteristics

IR073 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: IR - PM: IMRC - Measurement Readings and Counters

• Message number: 073

• Message text: MeasReading transfer: Measuring points have deviating characteristics

What causes this issue?

You intend to transfer measurement or counter reading differences
between the <DS:GLOS.measuring_point>measuring points</> &V3& and &V4&.
However, different characteristics are assigned to the measuring
points: Measuring point &V3& uses characteristic &V1&, measuring point
&V4& uses characteristic &V2&.

System Response

Because the measurement units can be converted into one another, the
measurement reading transfer is possible, but cannot be proposed
automatically.

How to fix this error?

If a technical system structure is subject to frequent changes, the
same characteristics should be worked with, which enables the system to
automatically propose the transfer of measurement or counter reading
differences.

Procedure for System Administrators
