Time-of-Use Rate Billing
Determine Your Billing Rates and Time Slots
Now refer to your own electric bill. Find your Time-of-Use billing rates, and the correspon-
ding time slots. Also, determine if your Time-of-Use billing applies on weekends.
If applicable, add fees and taxes to each base rate to obtain accurate total billing rates, as
shown in the example.
If your rates are in dollars per kilowatt-hour ($/kWh), you will need to multiply by 100 to
convert them to cents per kilowatt-hour (¢/kWh).
Enter the Billing Rates and Time Slots from your electric bill in the table below.
The Power Monitor allows for two or three different Time-of-Use Rates and up to six
different Time Slots.

06 PROGRAM DIGITAL DISPLAY -
T E M P E R ATURE, POWER FACTOR, BILLING MODE
The prog/sync button on top of the Digital Display is used to enter
Program Mode and to enter data for each programming step.
If the Digital Display detects no activity for one minute while in Program Mode, it will
automatically save your data and exit to Display Mode. Also, you can exit Program Mode
at any point by holding prog/sync for three seconds.
The buttons change the value on the screen. To make the numbers change faster,
you can hold the button down continuously until you reach the desired number.
If you enter a wrong value and accidentally save it, you can exit Program Mode. Then go
back into Program Mode and step through each entry until you get to the one you need to
fix. Any data you've already entered will be saved.
Follow these steps to program the Digital Display with your Power Factor (which you
recorded in section 03 Installing Your Meter Sensor), your Electric Bill information, and
display preferences.
