PowerNode Overview
The GreenWave Reality PowerNode is a smart outlet adapter that connects your appliances and electronics to electrical outlets and your GreenWave Reality home network so that you can monitor and control your devices’ power
usage remotely through a Web browser or smartphone. The PowerNode is available as a single outlet node or as a
six-outlet strip.
The PowerNode automatically connects to your GreenWave Reality Gateway (the device that connects to your
home network). This connection enables the Gateway to securely connect the devices you have powered through
your PowerNode to your home network. The PowerNode collects data on the energy consumption of the
connected devices and transmits the data to the Gateway. You can then control
the energy consumption of each connected device automatically using
GreenWave Reality Smart Controls. These user-dened Smart Controls allow you to turn devices on or off remotely through a Web
browser or smartphone or to set a schedule for automatically
turning your devices on or off at pre-dened times.
