Introduction

The GreenWave Reality platform helps create a smart, energy-efficient home through the monitoring and

controlling of your appliances and electronics (referred to as “devices”). You can conserve energy with minimal

impact to your lifestyle by using our products to easily manage your devices. Simply connect our Gateway to

your GreenWave Reality energy management system, plug your devices into our PowerNodes, and then monitor

and control the devices’ power usage through a Web browser or smartphone application.

PowerNode Overview

The GreenWave Reality PowerNode is a smart outlet adapter that connects your devices to electrical outlets and

your GreenWave Reality energy management system so that you can monitor and control your devices’ power

usage remotely through a Web browser or smartphone application. PowerNodes are available with a one-port or

multi-port configuration.

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 energy management system. 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-

defined Smart Controls allow you to turn devices on or off remotely through a Web browser or smartphone

application or to set a schedule for automatically turning your devices on or off at pre-defined times.

Room Colors

Your PowerNode has a corner wheel with colored numbers to

represent the room or device that the PowerNode is powering. Set

the PowerNode to the colored number you want to use to identify

the room or device (this is referred to as the “room color”). For

example, you can set the room color to blue. Then, when you

access your account through the Web or smartphone application,

the corresponding room is identified by the same blue color as your

PowerNode.

You can set PowerNodes in different rooms to different colors to

make those rooms easy to identify when managing the power

sources on the Web or smartphone application.
