Energy Display – INSTEON® In-Home Display

Model: 2448A2

Introduction

Energy Display reads power consumption information from devices
plugged into INSTEON devices and presents current power use,
average energy use per month, and average cost per month based
on your monthly billing rate.
NOTE: Energy Display requires an INSTEON meter device (e.g.,

™

iMete

Solo).

Installation

NOTE: Energy Display uses 2 AAA batteries and will provide approximately
one year of use per pair.

1) Energy Display requires at least one Access Point (#2443) or
dual-band INSTEON device for communication. For the best
INSTEON network performance, be sure you have properly
installed at least two dual-band INSTEON devices.
Search for dual-band INSTEON devices at:

www.smarthome.com/dualband

2) Remove the battery compartment from the rear of Energy
Display

3) Observe the polarity markings, install two AAA batteries, and
then replace the battery compartment door

Energy Display is now ready to use. See Linking Energy Display to
an INSTEON Device to begin receiving energy information about
your appliances.

The Energy Display screen should turn on and all LCD
segments should turn on
After a few seconds, Energy Display should beep and its
screen should be in Display Mode
Energy Display should attempt to gather data. While
gathering data, Energy Display should show a series of
hyphens along the top of the screen.
