UNDERSTANDING ELECTRICITY
Voltage
(volts)
Electrical potential. Fixed at 220V-250V
or 120V depending on country / region.
x
Current
(amps)
Amount of electricity owing through, e.g.,
a wire.
=
Power
(watts)
Amount of energy being transferred.
(KW = 1000W). This type of data is
displayed on the top line of Energy mode.
KWh is a measure of consumption. Kilowatt hour represents
the use of 1000W of electricity for 1 whole hour, which is
equivalent to ten x 100W light bulbs operating at the same
time for 1 hour.
Once cost rate of electricity has been inputted, the monitor
can arrive at an estimated cost. Similarly, by inputting the
carbon emission rate, the monitor can display the estimated
amount of carbon emitted as a result of the electricity
consumed.
NOTE This product is for educational purposes only. Its
aim is to aid understanding of the cost of operating electrical
appliances in the home. It does not replace your accurate
electricity revenue meter.
SETTING - GENERAL
To enter settings, rst ensure the corresponding mode is
displayed on the screen.

1. Press
MODE to navigate to desired screen display.
2. Press and hold
SET to enter settings.
TIP Press and hold MODE to exit settings (except when
setting tariff).
TARIFF (COST RATE)
To determine the approximate cost of electricity consumption,
input the cost per KWh. This rate can usually be found on
the electricity bill.
This unit allows the input of up to 4 different tariffs (cost rate)
to accommodate the different rates local utility companies
may charge consumers depending on the hour electricity is
consumed.
By raising awareness of consumption behaviour, better
consumption habits may be adopted which will in turn
reduce the cost of electricity bills.

To set cost rate:
1. Press
MODE until COST is displayed.
2. Press and hold
SET to enter.
3. Press
MODE to enter TAR 1 setting.
Continue setting the options for all 4 tariff settings by
pressing:
•
SET to increase value or toggle options
•
SEARCH to decrease value or toggle options
•
MODE to conrm and move to next setting.
The setting options are: Tariff number (1-4); On/Off (except
Tariff 1), days when tariff applies (everyday, weekday,
weekend), start time for tariff (hour and minute), cost rate
(1
st
to 4th digit), decimal point positioning.
NOTE If there is only one electricity rate select OFF for
TAR 2-4.
POWER USAGE ALERT AND MAXIMUM LOADING
Power usage alert
Appliances use varying amounts of power to operate
depending on its function and energy efciency. This
amount is written as W or KW and can be found on a label
on the appliance.
As appliances age, their power consumption can go up quite
considerably, thereby increasing the cost of operating it. By
setting the power usage alert, this unit can alert you if the
appliance is using more electricity than it should and help
you consider if there’s a need to replace it with an appliance
that is more energy efcient.
Maximum loading
This safety feature is designed to protect you. Since current
should be constant, a sudden jump in current (amps)
indicates possible overloading which may be a result of
appliance malfunction, power surge (e.g., from lightning)
etc. The sensor will cut off power to the appliance to
minimise the risk of short circuiting, damage to the appliance
and even re. The setting for maximum load varies across
countries.
To set power alert and maximum loading:
1. Press
MODE until ENERGY is displayed.
2. Press and hold
SET to enter.
3. Set the 4 digits by pressing:
•
SET to increase value
•
SEARCH to decrease value
•
MODE to conrm and move to next digit.
4. Continue to set Max Loading (amp) by following step 3
above.
CO2 RATE
Fossil fuel power stations produce carbon dioxide (CO2)
as a by-product of the production process. These gasses
have been linked to climate change. The amount of carbon
emitted is different for each utility company. For your
convenience, a default carbon emission rate (per 1KWh of
electricity produced) has been set on this unit.
To set the carbon emission rate:
1. Press
MODE until CO2 is displayed.
2. Press and hold
SET to enter.
3. Set the measurement unit by pressing
SET to select
unit, then MODE to conrm.

4. Continue to set the emission rate (3 digits) by pressing:
•
SET to increase value
•
SEARCH to decrease value
•
MODE to conrm and move to next setting.
REMOTE SOCKET CONTROL TIMER
Apart from monitoring energy consumption, this unit doubles
as a timer control for up to 4 appliances at any time. Decide
how long and when you want the appliance to work.
To set control timer:
1. Press
CH repeatedly to select socket to be
programmed.
2. Press and hold
REMOTE to enter settings.
3. Set the programme by pressing:
•
SET to increase value or toggle options
•
SEARCH to decrease value or toggle options
•
MODE to conrm and move to next setting.
The setting options are: applicable days (everyday, weekday,
weekend), switch on time (hour and minute), switch off time
(hour and minute).
To remotely turn on / off control timer or activate control
timer program:
1. Press
CH repeatedly to select channel.
2. Press
REMOTE to toggle between Auto, On, Off.

2. Press
SET / SEARCH to select interval (6 / 12 / 30/
60 seconds).
3. Press
MODE to conrm.
CLEAR RECORDS
“HI” will be displayed when the memory in the unit is
full. Clear records so unit can continue monitoring and
calculating the total data.
To clear records of TOTAL data (Cost / Energy / CO2):
• Press and hold
SET and SEARCH together.
RESET
Press RESET to restart the unit, main unit will search for the
remote socket which was last linked up.
Press and hold RESET and MODE together to return to
default settings.
