Setting up your ENVI Display
1) Connect the wire from the display power supply into the round socket in the back of
the display unit.
2) Plug the display power supply into a convenient wall socket
3) The “Energy Now” value on the display will now show dashes. The energy monitor
should be left powered on at all times to read energy correctly and run its clock.
4) Remove the battery tab from the underside of the black transmitter unit; the
transmitter will now be activated.
5) If the display shows ‘0 Watts’ the display has already been paired and is ready to
use. If it shows dashes the display and transmitter need pairing.
Pairing the ENVI Display and Transmitter
1) Place the transmitter and the display in the same room.
2) Remove the battery tab.
3) Locate the tuning button in the centre of the transmitter.
4) Using a ballpoint pen, push and hold the tuning button for nine seconds.
5) Upon releasing, the red LED on the transmitter will rapidly ash for a minute.
If it doesn’t, please try again.
6) Whilst the LED on the transmitter is ashing, press and hold the DOWN button
on the display until the LED ashes.
7) When you release the button the screen will show a tuning signal indicating it’s
tuning itself to the transmitter.
8) When tuning is completed the display screen will show an aerial icon to indicate
that tuning has been successful, the display will show “0 Watts”.
Fitting the Transmitter to your Meter
1) Now the transmitter and monitor are paired take the black transmitter with its
attached CT jaw and curly wire, to your mains meter.
This is often on an outside wall or in your garage, utility room or porch. If you live in a
at, it can often be found outside your front door in the communal staircase. The ENVI
display unit may be left in any room you wish to see it, for example the Hall or Kitchen.
TIP: If you have one electricity meter, t the sensor jaw as described below. If you
have two electricity meters, choose the one which supplies your household electricity,
not the one which supplies your night storage heaters.
2) Find the thick round wires connected to the electricity meter. The CT jaw should be
placed around the live cable which runs from your meter to your fuse box, this is
usually the forth cable from the left.
IMPORTANT: When looking at the cables leaving the bottom of the meter, they should
be fully insulated and you should not be able to see any of the cable conductor or
core. If you do see the live conductor, do not touch the cable and consult a qualied
electrical installer for advice.
3) Choose a place on the wire’s length where there is some room around and behind
it. Encircle the wire with the jaw of the CT. Please note, it should not be “clamped”
onto the wire. It is safe to ease the wire forwards to make room, provided this is
done gently.
4) Place the transmitter in any suitable dry location as high as possible where it will not
fall, within the length of its curly cable. As soon as this is done, the ENVI display will
start to work. No electrical damage can occur to either the electrical installation or
the transmitter by choosing the wrong wire.
