This screen is overwritten with the values from the Total to Date screen each time the
current time period is restarted. If the current time period has not been restarted at
least once, then there will be no data values for this screen and it will not be displayed.
Current Price
The Current Price screen shows the price

The current price may be obtained from
the value you manually set in the Set Rate
mid-peak
screen. To manually set the current price
value, simply press and release both
buttons simultaneously. This will put you in Configuration Mode. Move through the
Restart screen and Select Language screen to get to the Set Rate screen, where you
can change the current price value. This new value will become the current price, and
the Rate Label will be displayed as "Set by User". It is also possible to read the price
directly from the smart meter. If the meter supports this feature, then the EMU™ will
check the price with the meter every 2 minutes, and the current price value from the
meter will override any value that has been entered manually. If no price value has been
set – either by the smart meter or manually – then dashes are shown for the price digits.
For some utilities, the price can also be set by a special message sent to the meter by
the utility. This message will be displayed as a text message on the Message screen,
and the price will be automatically set. This will override any price value that has been
set manually.
