Electronic Meter (Optical Port On Face); Preparing Your Sensor Unit - Blue Line Innovations PowerCost Monitor User Manual

5.3. Electronic Meter
Electronic meters have digital readouts, as well as an optical port which emits light pulses similar
to the infrared light produced by a television remote control.
This section deals with meters where the optical port is located on the face, more specifically,
where the distance between the port and the outer rim of the meter dome is AT LEAST 1½
inches (37 mm). If in doubt, physically measure the distance between your port and the outer
rim of the dome. If it is less than 1½ inches (37 mm), you must follow the instructions in section
5.4 to install your Sensor Unit.

1. Pull the Sensor Arm latch upward to open it.
