Before plugging the ENERGY CONTROL into the mains socket and any appliances into it, the values must be set.
Firstly, press and hold down the “COST” key (for approximately 4 seconds) and all values with the exception of Tariff (cost per
kilowatt hour) will be reset to zero.
TARIFF SETTING MODE:
If the cost of a kWh cannot be found on the bill, then contact your local Electricity Company for the price of this unit. The Tariff
display may not necessarily be set to zero.
1.
Press and hold the “
TARIF
” key (approximately 3 seconds) until the first digit on the right hand side starts flashing.
2.
Now press either the “
POWER
” or “
COST
” keys to set the desired digit. Each press of either key changes the digits by
one. The “
POWER
” key increases the digits from 0 to 9 and the “
COST
” key decreases from 9 to 0.
3.
Once a digit is set, press the “
TARIF
” key once to move to the next digit.
4.
Repeat steps 2. and 3. until the desired values for the kWh are set. If any of the digits do not require changing then
simply press the “
TARIF
” key to move to the next. Once all the desired value has been selected, the “
TARIF
” key should
be pressed once more to confirm the setting of all digits (the last digit on the left had side will stop flashing).
Note:
If no keys are pressed for about 8 seconds during tariff setting mode and the digit is flashing, the unit will
automatically confirm and display the last entered tariff; the digit will stop flashing.
5.
Once the Tariff is set, plug the ENERGY CONTROL into the mains supply and then plug the electrical appliance into the
ENERGY CONTROL.
Note:
The appliance should be operated as normal - for hints on this see the
“Extra Notes”
section.
USING THE ENERGY CONTROL
Using the Energy Control is very easy. For example: the cost to operate appliance “X” is 7.00 (€, £ and etc.) per day and after
20 days of operating the appliance, the TOTAL COST is 140.00 (€, £ and etc.), therefore, we can assume the following readings:
