1. A computer-implemented method of configuring software for an electric meter, the method comprising:
- creating a configuration parameters table having values for the electric meter in a platform independent format, the platform independent format being a format that is not specifically adapted to a model of the electric meter;
merging the configuration parameters table with a configuration mapping table configured specifically to the model of the electric meter to transform the parameters table into a configuration build table and PRO files that are executable on the electric meter to operate the electric meter; and
installing the configuration build table and the PRO files on the electric meter.

Abstract
Aspects of the invention provide a tool for configuring software for an electric meter. A parameters table having values for the electric meter in a platform independent format is created. The table is then merged with to a mapping table that is configured specifically to the particular model of the electric meter to be configured to form a build table that can be executed on the electric meter. The build table is then installed on the electric meter.
