ReMI, the smart energy switch
The ReMI web server receives consumption data, either via
the 6P/6C RJ12 'cross' cable connected to the P1 port of the
digital meter, or via the Modbus connection connected to
2-wire energy meters, or via consumption pulses from the 2
input contacts. ReMI is then linked to the local WiFi
network and so you get an overview of total consumption
up to 2 years ago on the local ReMI website via the web
browser on smartphone, tablet or PC. ReMI is compatible
with Belgian and Dutch* digital meters.
Note: Always use the 12VDC power supply. The L&G E350 differs from the
P1 standard and is NOT compatible. Via P1, ReMI reads:

Consumption import high tariff, and Consumption import low
 Consumption export high tariff, and Consumption export low

Rate (high or low rate)

Gas consumption (if measuring device available)

Consumption of water (if measuring device available)
 Consumption import high + low tariff

Consumption export high + low tariff
 Consumption, import – export (positive or negative)

Quarter-hour capacity (Flanders only)
External meters can also be connected via Modbus, via pulse or via MQTT
(MQTT Token required!): WiFi-Plugs WP.16A, THEo and LeON sticks, 2-
Wire web servers (LoWi3, ReMI, MEMo3),...
Up to a maximum of 16 measuring channels are provided in the ReMI.
Each measurement channel has a storage of the last 10 days for hourly
consumption, with a resolution of 5 minutes. The day-consumes have a
surcharge of 12 months. The monthly consumption have a surcharge of 2
years. (*Belgian meter activate first, see comments)
In addition to inputs, ReMI has 2 bi-stable 10A relay outputs and 2 low-
power solid-state outputs. To switch with the solid-state large loads, they
can be connected via the ReMI power supply to the optional PEM01/012
power relays. With the logic in the web server, these 4 outputs and WiFi-
MQTT Plug's can be based on injection, peak, rate, time (4week-clocks),...
controlled. You can compare ReMI with the former boiler timer, but with
more possibilities.
1. Connect:
ReMI MUST be in the reception range of the 2.4gHz stable WiFi
network and that WiFi network MUST be connected to the Internet.
Check WiFi receiver strength with your smartphone, WiFi reaches max.5
to 10m. No metal objects nearby. In the ReMI setup page you can read
RSSI signal strength. The smaller the value the better signal, --55dBM is
OK, >80dBM is not OK.
master with 2-WIRE meters, or Modbus slave in a MEMo3 setup, not both
at the same time.
Pulse IN: [4] 2x NO potential-free reed contact, 0-5v/2mA, cable max. 2.5
meters, section 2x0.5mm² with fixed core. Pulse duration min. 50msec,
max. 10 pulse/second.
Pulse-OUT: [5] 2x low power solid state contact with optical separation,
Logically generates either consumption pulses from P1 meters, or a low-
power switching contact (max. 24VDC/max 50mA). Cable max 2.5m, 2x
max. 0.5mm² with solid core.
Relay output: [6] 2x bi-stable potential-free 10A/230V 50-60Hz relay
contact up to max. 2300 Watt resistive load, or as a release contact to the
control of e.g. heat pump, charging station, boiler, storage,... Thread min.
Power supply: [1] First connect the
supplied 12 Volt DC (Max. 2A, max. 2.5
meters and 2x0.5mm² with solid core)
and then [2] P1 port input with RJ12
cable (max. 3 meters).
Always automatic fuse provided
2P/6A, clearly visible and accessible,
which serves as an on/off for ReMI.
Modbus:[3] use shielded EIB bus cable
4x 0.5mm² with solid core (Max. 25
meters) and respect the color code
GAB=black, yellow and white. Single
line topology can be terminated at
Modbus and both bus ends between A
and B terminal with end resistor 120
Ohm. ReMI is located at a terminus of
the bus. Either set ReMI as Modbus
0.25mm²... Max. 2.5mm² (Max. 25 meters), strip max. 4mm . Always
connect external 12VDC power supply when using relays!
Please note:
•ReMI= Mono-phase module: Connect both 230V relays to the same
phase! It is best to use power relays (PEM01/012).
•Bi-stable: in the event of a power cut, they will retain their position!
LED:[7] PWR :p ower status, COM: Communication, R1 and R2: Relay
status.
Antenna: Screw the WiFi antenna onto the SMA connector.
2. Pair with WiFi network
Once ReMI is connected correctly (see power supply ReMI) the green
PWR LED will light up constantly, followed by the orange COM LED which
flickers on/off every second after about 10 seconds. ReMI is now a "WiFi
access point".
NB Change existing WiFi link: Restart and then press the JOIN/UPGR button after 2-3
seconds (approx. 5 sec) until the COM LED stays on continuously. ReMI now remains
approx. 1 minute "access point".
Note: Manual upgrade: When paired with heart rate LED Long press (approx. 5 sec.
until LED is solid), results in firmware upgrade
Note: WiFi range: During WiFi connection and also during firmware upgrade the
distance between ReMI, router, smartphone or PC as short as possible
REMI ACCESS POINT:
Select 'networking' on your laptop, smartphone or tablet
and if it works properly, the list should now read: '2-WIRE-
REMI'. Select this network. If you are asked for a key
(password): 'adminREMI'.
Automatically your web browser will open and after a
maximum of 1-2 minutes you will be redirected to a
REDIRECT page where you can enter the IP settings.
Note: If this does not work automatically, go to 192.168.4.1 (type in
the browser toolbar). If you have already done a previous ReMI connection, choose
"do not remember" WiFi network setting '2-WIRE-REMI' WiFi network in Windows. If
it doesn't work immediately, try to pair via smartphone or tablet and be sure to
check the WiFi signal. Also check if the COM LED is on continuously (access point
mode) and if necessary watch the ReMI
video tutorial on
REDIRECT PAGE
Once on the redirect page, click on 'Configure WiFi' and
a list of networks in your perimeter will appear. You can
now select your WiFi network from the list (SSID), and
also enter the password of your network.
Default values:

IP address: 192.168.0.125 ReMI webpage
 Gateway: 192.168.0.1 (internet !)

Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
 Port No: 8082 (dial number ts 8000 and 9000): 'port
forwarding' for remote control)
the IP server scanner and enter 8.8.8.8 as DNS IP (see figure)
Or you can temporarily set ReMI to DHCP
to get a free and fixed IP address.
Setting up DHCP is done by entering 4x '0.0.0.0' as
the IP address and then the router itself gives a fix
IP address (see figure on the right) to read that IP
address afterwards via the server scanner, or by
going back to the redirect page.
and port number (random number 8000... 9000), press SAVE and you will
get the confirmation of the set ReMI IP address (Fig. confirmation IP)
Once all network data has been entered, the laptop has to go back to the
standard WiFi network and there you surf to the set FIXED IP address and
port number (enter in web browser, e.g. 192.168.0.226:8082) The port
number must follow with a ':' decimal character after the IP address! This
is how you get to ReMI homepage.
Note: In the browser, JAVASCRIPT must be enabled under 'SETTINGS'!
