Hi Friends,
I am trying to create Rate steps for two rate registers meter(on peak and off peak) using single RATE, please see the below table for RATE steps for both the registers,
R1_onpeak and R2_offpeak operand's category is quant and operand usage is register, can anyone let me know how operand R1_onpeak and R2_offpeak get populated with their respective registers consumption value because I haven't seen anything which relate these operands to their respective registers, In case of single rate meter it obvious since only one register is there.
Variant input operand input operand output operand
Quanti01 R1_onpeak R1_price R1_amount
Quanti01 R2-offpeak R2_price R2_amount
Many thanks

Hi Veer,
First of all my recommendation will be to create two different "register rates" if consumption is coming from two different register.
So create Rate 1 - PEAK_RATE
&
Rate 2 - OFFPEAK_RATE
Do the rate determination using "register permissible rate type"
Determine "PEAK_RATE" with "PEAK_RT" rate type
&
Determine "OFFPEAK_RATE" with "OFFPEAK_RT" rate type
Now below is your answer
When you will install the device (with two register)
Put rate type - PEAK_RT for register which is capturing peak consumption
&
Put rate type - OFFPEAK_RT for register which is capturing off-peak consumption
So this way "PEAK_RATE" will get peak hour consumption & "OFFPEAK_RATE" rate will get off-peak hour consumption.

Hi Manoj,
Thanks for giving me your valuable time.
Yes you are correct, using two different RATE it is clear but my query is in case of single RATE for both rate type how consumption from registers get passed to the respective operands.
i.e Rate category + Onpeak_rate type = Rate1
Rate category +Onffpeak_ratetype = Rate1
Please note:- one RATE for both rate type.
Many thanks

Hi Veer,
A Register Permissible rate can have only one register relavant operand. as you need to mention the register operand in the rate header. So your scenario would not be possible.
Please have a look into IUT230 , its clearly stated there.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
