Introduction:
The Solo II is an In-Home Display and is used to provide real-time
information on the energy you are consuming or generating. The
Solo II works with a Transmitter, Smart Plugs, Temperature
Sensors and GEO's online services to provide energy information
on a PC, Smartphone, tablet or other internet enabled device.
Installation - CT Clip Sensor
1. Locate your mains live cable, this is usually identified by the
colour brown, red or the letter "L".

Sensor please press the release button on the back
of the transmitter, slide the cover off and remove
the battery tab.
Installation - LED Sensor
The LED Sensor can be used to monitor either your electricity
