Some electricity users will have primary/secondary rates based on usage. To make use of this data you will need
to calculate an average based on usage and enter this figure into tariff 1.
CAN I MONITOR APPLIANCE LEVEL?
The Sensor is unable to detect current flow when clipped an appliance lead with earth, neutral and live cables.
The sensor will only work when clipped over a live phase cable.
HOW MUCH DATA CAN BE STORED ON MY SEM3000?
Data is stored for the last 1800 days as hourly value of electricity used, cost of electricity used based on Tariff
rates entered for that day, and amount of CO2 emissions based on conversion factor for that day. This data is
accessible by connecting pc-cable and software.
Data is also stored every 6 seconds for the last 1 day and this is accessed using the automatic download function
of the software application supplied with the Display Unit.
INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE APPLICATION TO DOWNLOAD THE DATA TO PC?
Please read the User Manual on the Software Application file supplied with SEM3000. Install the software
following the installation guide in the user manual.
Follow the Getting Started section of the User Manual, to get the New Hardware installed, and to add the USB as
a “Connected To” device in the software.
HOW DO I DOWNLOAD THE DATA TO MY PC?
Simply connect the port of the Display Unit to the PC with specially made mini-USB cable, and the last 30 days
data (or number days data stored if less than 30 days) will automatically download to the software database.
HOW OFTEN DO I NEED TO DOWNLOAD THE DATA TO MY PC?
Data should be downloaded every 30days since last data download or sooner.
If 30 days is exceeded since last download, then the data for the days between the last 30 days and last
download of data will be overwritten in the monitor, hence there will be no data saved for those days in the
