NOTE: If your meter seems to have two ports, the one
closest to the center of the meter is the optical port.
Type 4 Meter:
Electronic with optical port on the top
On this type of meter, the optical port is located on
the top portion of the meter.
This kind of meter requires you to reconfigure the
Sensor Unit and install the Clear Alignment template.

START – Read SAFETY PRECAUTIONS first
IMPORTANT: Turn on a high energy-consuming appliance in your house, such as
your electric stove or dryer. This will temporarily increase your electricity consump-
tion and enable the Sensor Unit to begin reading your meter’s output in less time.
1. Go to your meter, taking the following items with you:
➢
This Guide
➢
1 large Flat Head screwdriver
➢
Sensor Unit
➢
Clear Alignment Template (if you have a Type 4 meter)
➢
Display Unit
➢
Stepping stool or ladder if your utility meter is located
➢
A clean damp cloth higher than eye level
2. Perform the installation steps for your type of meter (which you determined in Step 4).
Type 1, 2 & 3 Meters:
1. After carefully wiping the meter dome clean with the
damp cloth, fit the Sensor Unit over your utility meter
as shown, so that the Sensor Head
C
sits as close as
possible to the front of the glass dome.
2. With your screwdriver, tighten the hose clamp
A
until
the Sensor Unit is snug, but can move just enough to
allow for slight adjustments.
3. Position the Sensor Head
C
:
TYPE 1 Meters:
Position the Sensor Arm
B
so that it is inline
with the spinning disk
(use the line on the
Sensor Arm as a reference)
and the Sensor Head
C
is
on or near the center of the meter.
4. Press the RESET button and wait 10 seconds. The red STATUS indicator turns on solid.
5. If you positioned the Sensor Head
C
correctly, the STATUS indicator
starts flashing as indicated below.
If it does not, correct the
positioning slightly.
TYPE 1 - After 15 seconds, the red STATUS indicator turns off and within two minutes,
it starts flashing once per disk revolution. This is an indication that your Sensor Unit is
correctly reading the meter.
TYPES 2 and 3 - After about 15 seconds, the red STATUS indicator starts flashing
regularly, indicating that the Sensor Unit has detected the signal from your meter.
Within1minute,inadditiontotheregularflashing,youshouldseeanextraflashevery
nowandthen,dependingonyourrateofelectricityconsumption.Theseextraflashes
are normal, and indicate that the Sensor Unit is reading the meter’s output correctly.
Note 1: The STATUS indicator stops flashing after 2 minutes, in order to maximize
battery life.
Note 2: If the STATUS indicator does not flash at all and stays lit solid, please read
the Troubleshooting section in your User Guide.
Type 4 Meters:
1. Stand directly in front of your meter, at a height where you can see the optical port.
The optical port itself looks like a small protruding pipe in the center of the top
portion of the meter. Carefully wipe the meter dome clean with the damp cloth.
2. Hold the template with the protruding tab facing you
and the white arrow pointing away from you. Peel off
the adhesive backing.
3. Position the template on the meter so that the horizontal
white line on the template follows the front edge of the
meter dome, and the white arrow points straight to the
optical port.
4. Carefully stick the template to the dome, pressing it in
place on top first, then on the protruding tab down the
front of the dome.
5. Slide the Sensor Unit over the glass dome and
align the edges of the Sensor Unit body with
the white side lines.
6. Tighten the hose clamp
A
until the Sensor
Unit is snug, but can move just enough to allow
for adjustments.
7. OpentheSensorArmlatch
G
and sight down
the opening. You see a vertical plastic tab painted
white on the inside of the Sensor body.
8. Sighting through the opening, position the Sensor
Unit so that the white plastic tab on the body is
aligned with the arrow on the template.
9. Press the RESET button and wait 10 seconds.
The red STATUS indicator turns on solid.
10.Keepingthewhitelinesonthebodyandtemplate
aligned, slowly and gently push or pull on the
Sensor Unit until the red STATUS indicator starts
flashing regularly, indicating that the Sensor Unit
has detected the signal from your meter. Within
1 minute, in addition to the regular flashing, you
shouldseeanextraflasheverynowandthen,
depending on your rate of electricity consump-
tion.Theseextraflashesarenormal,andindicate
that the Sensor Unit is reading the meter’s output
correctly.
Note 1: The STATUS indicator stops flashing after 2 minutes, in order to
maximize battery life. If you have not seen at least one extra flash by then,
please read the Troubleshooting section in your User Guide.
Note 2: If the STATUS indicator doesn’t flash at all and stays lit solid, please
read the Troubleshooting section in your User Guide.
TYPES 2, 3 Meters:
Position the Sensor
Arm
B
so that the
dark red LED
D
in the Sensor Head
C
islocatedexactly
above the optical port.
NOTE: The STATUS
indicator stays lit until you
install it on the meter, at
which time it starts flashing.
If your Sensor Unit has not
detected the signal from a
meter within 20 minutes,
the STATUS indicator starts
blinking very rapidly. This
behaviour is normal.
