2. Operation
2.1 Brief instruction
Unplug the load (e.g. household appliance, HIFI, PC…)
and
plug it in the adapter of the measuring device. Subsequently
connect the adapter of the measuring device to the soc et.
ll readings are saved even after unplugging the wattmeter or a
mains failure. They will be recalled by plugging in again.
Switch between the different modes using the arrow eys.
Approve the settings with the OK ey.

2.3 CLM1000-Standard operational system
The Wattmeter CLM1000-Standard is made for measuring the
following electric parameters:
•Instantaneous real power [W]
•min. and max. of Instantaneous real power [W]
•Voltage [V]
•min. and max. of Voltage [V]
•Current [A]
•min. and max. of Current [A]
•active energy (consumption) [ Wh]
•active energy /24 hours [ Wh]
•consumption costs [€]
•consumption costs /24 hours [€]
•Tariff adjustment [€]
•test time [hh:mm]
•rate of time over Stand-By threshold [%]

2.3.1. djusting menu of the CLM1000-Standard
By the simultaneous pressing of the two arrow eys for
approx. 2 seconds the adjusting menu of the CLM1000-
Standard appears.
With the arrow keys the different menu options can be
started.
With exit the adjusting menu will be left.
Beginning of a new measurement
In this attitude: If the ey is pressed, then all
measured values and the gate time sets to zero and the
equipment starts a new measurement.
The consumer who can be measured should be already
switched on.
djust the tariff
In this attitude: If the ey is pressed, then the price
in Euro per Wh can be adjusted with the arrow eys. The
entered price is confirmed with pressing the OK- ey and the
equipment changes again into the adjusting menu shown.
djust the On%-threshold (Standby threshold)
In this attitude: If the ey is pressed, then the thres-
hold for the “ON%”-
computation can be adfusted with the
arrow eys.
This threshold value can be adfusted from 0 watts to 100
watts.

2.3.3. Description of the ON%-function
Many consumers (e.g. refrigerator) not constantly need the full
achievement from the net. Therefore it is good to be nown which time a
consumer really needs the full electrical power and not only wor s in the
standby-mode.
The function indicates how much percent of the measured time and how
many hours the consumers wor ed over the adjusted ON-threshold
(Standby-threshold).

3. Error handling
The CLM1000 gives users warning of internal errors which
occurred!
If there is an error the display is red.
Error Meaning Solution
ERROR1 Internal error 1!
CLM1000 doesn’t start!
Unplug the CLM1000 and
plug it again!
If the error continues to exist
the CLM1000 can’t be used.
!Please send in!
ERROR2 Internal error 2!
The CLM1000 shows the error
and all readings are reset.
The CLM1000 starts an new
measuring!
If this error eeps occurring
during start-up the CLM1000
has to be sent in for further
inspection.
ERROR3 Amperage above the
maximum allowable value
(more than 16 ampere)
Unplug wattmeter!

5. F Q
Question 1:
The displayed current varies between 0 mA and 3 mA?
nswer 1:
The measured current almost corresponds to the one of the no-load operation's
detection. As a result the displayed value varies between 0 mA (no-load
operation detection) and the minimum measurable current of 2 mA. Consider the
tolerance of +- 3 mA too.
Question 2:
My measuring instrument doesn't display any measuring values, although at least
a 3 mA current runs.
nswer 2:
A current exceeding 3 mA may run through instruments having only an inductive
or a capacitive load and no measured value would be displayed. Reason: in the
case of a low power factor, the active power lowers under the point of no-load
operation's detection and every measured value is reset.
