4.1 Changing the Voltage on the display
The Kilowatt value is calculated from the amps being monitored by reference to a voltage stored on
the monitor.
To change the stored voltage value:
Use the round green button to the KW display
press and hold the rectangular green button 3 seconds and Volts "SET" will appear.
This voltage is the phase to neutral value so will normally be about 240 for the U.K.
Using the < and > arrows alter this to the desired setting
Press the rectangular green button to confirm this and return to normal operation
4.2 Changing the Transmitter channel
There are 30 channels available and the transmitter and monitor can be set to any of these when
multiple units are near each other or there are problems with interference from other equipment.
● Start by bringing the display and the transmitter close together and remove the batteries from
the transmitter
● With the batteries out, press and hold the round green button on the front of the transmitter
nearest the LED's Holding the button, now put the batteries in and keep holding the button and
you will see a solid green LED illuminates on the transmitter.
● Lift your finger off the button and press it 6 times for channel 6 etc. you have 30 channels on
the transmitter.
● Once you have pressed the button for the amount of channels you require, wait and the green
LED will start to flash and you need to count the flashes to make sure it flashes for example 6
times f you selected channel 6 and then there will be a slight pause and it will continue with its
regular 4 second flashes.
● Reset to 3 phase mode by removing a battery and holding the square button on the transmitter
while inserting the battery.
● Next we need to set he display to the same channel.
● On the Display go to Amps and then press and hold the rectangular green button until "SET"
and CH 02 is displayed. (CH 02 is the default channel)
● Press the rectangular green button to select the channel.
● On the display you should now have what looks to be a radio mast in the bottom right hand
corner. Within 10 seconds one the the monitor LEDS should start flashing at the same time as
the LED on the transmitter
You can check the transmitter channel at any time by simply removing the batteries from the
transmitter and re-inserting them whilst looking and counting the flashes of the LED on the front of
the transmitter. (for example you will get 6 flashes very quickly then a slight pause and one flash
to confirm then it will resume its four second cycle as normal.
Do not forget to hold the square button down when replacing the transmitter battery to get
back to 3 phase transmit mode.
4.3 Checking the signal strength
Use the round green button to display time.
Press the red square button on the left of the display and a number will appear and begin to move
between -30 and + 30 (+30 being very good and -30 very bad) your monitor should be between
-15 to +30 in order to be able to write to the card in full sections otherwise you may find you lose
data if your signal is intermittent.
Don't forget to screw the antenna on the back of your smart display if you find the monitor
is having problems with signal.
