[Smart Meter Descriptors](Smart-Meter-Interface-Descriptors)
**The following types of meter protocols are supported:**
To use this interface, connect the meter to available device GPIO pins. These GPIO must be set as `None (0)`
components in the Tasmota Template or Module. If the interface detects that a meter descriptor GPIO conflicts with a Tasmota GPIO setting, the interface will generate a "duplicate GPIO defined" error in the log and the meter descriptor will be ignored.
The Smart Meter Interface provides a means to connect many kinds of meters to Tasmota. **The following types of meter protocols are supported:**
- ascii OBIS telegrams emitted from many smart meters and also from P1 meter interface
- binary SML OBIS telegram emitted from many smart meters
- binary EBUS telegram emitted by many heaters and heat pumps (e.g. Vaillant, Wolf)
- binary EBUS telegram emitted by many heaters and heat pumps (e.g., Vaillant, Wolf)
- binary MODBUS telegram used by many power meters
- binary RAW telegram decodes all kinds of binary data eg EMS heater bus
- counter interface (uses Tasmota counter storage) for e.g. reed contacts either in polling or IRQ mode
- counter interface (uses Tasmota counter storage) for e.g., reed contacts either in polling or IRQ mode
There may be more than one software serial driven meter. There are dozens of variants and use cases for this driver and this requires a means of defining these variants. This is done through so called [meter descriptors](Smart-Meter-Interface-Descriptors).
There are many different meters that use the same protocol. There are multitudes of variants and use cases. A meter can be defined by using compilation time `#define` pragmas. This requires recompiling the firmware to make modifications.
A method exists already in Tasmota to define a meter by `#define` pragmas in the compiler. This requires recompiling the driver after each modification.
This interface provides a means of specifying these definitions through [meter descriptors](Smart-Meter-Interface-Descriptors). This method uses the [scripting language](Scripting-Language) editor to define the descriptors. In this way, only one firmware binary version is required and a modification can be made easily "on the fly".
The new, preferred, method uses the scripting language editor to define the descriptors in an `>M` section. For this only one firmware binary version is required and a modification can be made easily "on the fly".
The driver reverts to the default `#define` definition if no `>M` section is found in the script or [scripting](Scripting-Language) is not compiled.
**Note:** If no `>M` section is found in the script or if the scripting language is not compiled, the driver reverts to the default `#define` definition(s).
## Descriptor Syntax
Define a script `>M <n>` section with the number of connected meters. Up to five meters may be defined - e.g. `>M 3`
### Meter Declaration
Define an `>M` section with the number of meters to be connected (up to 5) - e.g. `>M 3`

### Meter Metrics
Each meter typically provides multiple metrics (voltage, power, humidity, etc.) which it measures. You must provide entries (up to 16, #define MAX_VARS 16) to define how to decode the data and put it into your variables. These entries start with the meter number to which this decoder belongs.
