Picture 1. Step 1 – Preparation
6 | ENGLISH
The software needs to be configured before the Energy Reader can be mounted onto
the power meter. Click on the pictures to see the pictures with more information, as
described in the next chapters.
3.1.1 Examine the power meter
It is necessary to know what meter type the Energy Reader needs to be mounted on:
• Mechanical Meters are read by a rotational dial on the front.
• Electric Meters are read by a flashing LED on the front.
3.1.2 Note the factor for the meter
Mechanical Meters:
The rotational factor on the mechanical meter is the number of rotations the dial will
perform per 1 kWh (kilo Watt hour). The rotational factor varies from manufacturer and
model, but is always written on the meter itself.
Electric Meters:
The pulse factor on the electric meter is the number of flashed the LED will perform
per 1 kWh. The impulse (pulse) factor varies from manufacturer and model.
Notes:
• If the meter has several impulse factors, it is recommended to choose the LED
with the highest factor.
• Some meters use a flashing and/or infrared LED. The Energy Reader works on
both types of LED’s.
• A few electric meters do not indicate the impulse factor. If in doubt, contact the
manufacturer of the meter to learn the correct factor.
• If “S0 = xx imp/kWh” is written on the meter, this value should not be noted or
used.
3.1.3 Latest annual or interim statement
Optionally find the latest annual or interim statement from your utility company. In
order to utilize all the functions in the Energy Reader software it is recommended to
use this statement.

work as repeaters, hereby ensuring communication and extending the network range,
despite vendor origin.
This chapter describes the different options and functions regarding the wireless
transmitter and the USB receiver when used as part of another Z-Wave network.
It is also possible to find a complete list of functions for the wireless transmitter when
used as part of the Energy Reader-setup (In conjunction with the Z-wave USB
receiver).
Note! It is highly recommendable not to attempt to change any of the Z-Wave settings,
unless having prior experiences with setting up Z-Wave devices.
Additional information regarding the Z-Wave standard can be found by visiting:
www.z-wavealliance.org / www.zen-sys.com.

6.2 Advanced functions of the Energy Reader in
conjunction with a Z-wave stick or Z-wave network
The wireless transmitter (Energy Reader) can perform a variety of functions by
pressing the grey button located at the bottom of the unit:
Here is an overview of functions for the wireless transmitter when used in conjunction
with the included USB receiver (Z-wave USB stick), or with a Z-wave network:
6.2.1 Press button 1 time – Real-time mode.
During normal usage of the Energy Reader the wireless transmitter transfers
consumption data to the (USB) receiver every 15 minutes. This is done to maximize
battery life span.
25 | ENGLISH
However, to monitor the power consumption measured in “real-time” – having
consumption data transferred every 5 sec. Energy Reader can be put in Real-time
mode by pressing the sensor button once. - The LED located on the transmitter will
flash once as response, and Energy Reader will hereafter remain in real-time mode for
the next approx. 15 min. after which it will revert to the normal function and transmit
data every 15 minutes.
Note! The battery life expectancy will be significantly reduced by frequent use of the
Real-time function.
6.2.2 Press button 2 times – Normal Mode / Sleep Mode
Energy Reader operates normally by transferring the data collected from the wireless
transmitter to the USB receiver every 15 minutes - this is called Normal Mode. If
Energy Reader has been put in Real-time Function, it can be reversed into Normal
Mode by pressing two times on the sensor button. - The LED will flash twice and the
Energy Reader will then again be transmitting data every 15 minutes.
Note! In Normal Mode the sensor LED will not flash every time a pulse has been
detected.
6.2.3 Press button 3 times – Learn mode (including and excluding)
When establishing the connection between the wireless transmitter and USB receiver,
it is necessary to start the learn mode: - Press three times on the sensor button - The
LED will flash 3 times as responds. Subsequently, the wireless transmitter will attempt
to obtain contact with the USB receiver. This should only be done the first time
connection is established between the two devices.
Including the transmitter in a new Z-wave network
Make sure that the Z-Wave Master (controller/receiver) is in inclusion mode before
attempting to include a new Z-wave device to the network.
When establishing the connection between the wireless transmitter and the Z-Wave
network, it is necessary to start Learn mode:
1. Press three times on the sensor button.
2. The LED will flash 3 times as responds.
3. Subsequently, the wireless transmitter will attempt to obtain contact with the Z-
Wave Master device in order to be included to the network.
Excluding the transmitter from a Z-Wave network
Make sure that the Z-Wave Master (controller/receiver) is in exclusion mode before
attempting to exclude a Z-wave device from the network.
If the wireless transmitter has already been included in an existing Z-Wave network, it
is necessary to start Learn mode in order to remove the device from the Z-Wave
network again:
1. Press the sensor button three times.
2. The LED will flash 3 times as responds.
26 | ENGLISH
3. Subsequently, the wireless transmitter will attempt to obtain contact with the Z-
Wave Master device in order to be excluded from the network.
Note: It is important to consult with the user guide for the Z-Wave Master device, on
the desired Z-Wave network, in order to determine how to include and exclude other
Z-Wave products to the Z-Wave network.
6.2.4 Press button 5 times – Calibration function
When mounting Energy Reader on a mechanical meter it is necessary to calibrate the
sensor head to ensure a correct reading of consumption from the meter. Press 5 times
on the sensor button once the sensor head has been mounted to start the calibration.
The LED will start flashing to indicate that calibration has begun.
The calibration takes approx. 5-10 minutes, and the LED will start to flash in a slower
rate as the calibration is nearing completion.
When the calibration is completed the LED will turn off. Hereafter the LED will flash
once each time a rotation have been registered from the power meter.
Note! If the LED does not turn off and begins flashing rapidly instead after calibration
is completed, this means that the Energy Reader could not make a proper reading of
the rotational dial on the power meter and alternative mounting of the sensor head
should be attempted.
6.2.5 Press and hold button for 5 seconds – Fine tuning mode
In order to ensure a correct reading of consumption data from mechanical meters it
may be necessary to make fine tuning adjustments to the placement of the sensor
head. Press and hold the button for 5 seconds to begin the fine tuning function.
• The LED will begin to flash rapidly. The brightness of the LED will vary depending
on how optimal reading conditions are registered by the sensor head.
• Place the sensor head where the LED will glow with the brightest light. Then
press the sensor button 5 times to start the calibration function again.
6.2.6 Press button 7 times – Reset to factory default
Press seven times on the sensor button to reset the wireless transmitter. - The LED
will respond with:
3 short flashes – 2 seconds being lit, or longer if a longer period of data is stored –
and again 3 short flashes to indicate that the resetting has been completed correctly.
Note! All data stored in the Energy Reader will be deleted permanently. Only reset the
wireless transmitter if experiencing problems while setting up the wireless connection
between the transmitter and USB receiver, or after consulting the hotline support.
