02963 - Connected Energy meter
SMART HOME VIEW WIRELESS
The device measures the consumption/production of instantaneous electricity and consumption
logs with an hourly, daily, monthly and annual resolution. It should be connected to the sin-
gle-phase line (or to a single line of a three-phase system) using the current probe provided. Only
one meter for total consumption (or for a single load) can be installed in a system; in photovoltaic
systems, a maximum of two meters can be installed (one for the exchange meter and one of the
production meter). It can be used to prevent the 1-way switch in the electricity meter from tripping
due to overload, managing the cut-off of up to 4 loads, according to priorities set by the user.
Download the View Wireless App from the stores onto the tablet/smartphone you
will be using for configuration.
You will also need:
Gateway art. 20597-19597-16497-14597
View App for management via smartphone/tablet
Alexa, Google Assistant, Siri and Homekit voice assistants for possible voice operation
CONFIGURATION IN
1. Create your Installer account on MyVimar (on-line).
2. Wire all the devices in the system (2-way switches, relays, thermostats, gateway, etc.).
3. Start the View Wireless App and log in with the credentials you just created.

associated last).
To associate the Energy meter:
• Select “Add” ( ), choose the environment to place it and give it a name
• Select ; activate the Bluetooth connection on your tablet/smartphone and approach
the thermostat
• Press the CONF push button and choose the type of metering to perform.
6. For every device, set the function, the parameters and any accessory devices (wired or radio
control and related function).
7. Transfer the configuration of the devices to the gateway and connect it to the Wi-Fi network.
8. Transfer the system to the Administrator user (who must have created his/her profile on
MyVimar).
For full details, see the View Wireless App manual that can be downloaded from the www.
vimar.com website.

OPERATION.
The device only operates in Bluetooth technology mode and makes it possible to:
• Control single-phase systems (with consumption and/or production)
•Monitor the instantaneous power produced and consumed (in kW with values of between 25
W and 10 kW).
•Monitor the energy produced and consumed in kWh.
Via the gateway 20597-19597-16497-14597 the data detected are sent to the View App which
displays the powers produced, consumed and drawn with the respective graphs.
In the View App, the energy produced, consumed and drawn are displayed with the following
resolutions:
- Hourly for the last 7 days (G),
- Daily for the last month (S),
- Monthly for the last 12 months (M),
- Annually for the last 10 years (A)
•Manage up to 4 loads via the same number of relay actuators (art. 20593, 19593, 16953,
14593, 03981). Each load controlled must be assigned a priority, which determines the cut-off
order by the device itself. The user may disable the automatic control by forcing the loads.
Settings.
The View Wireless App can be used to set the following parameters:
- Type of meter: consumption, production, exchange.
- Measurement transmission mode: upon variation (with settable threshold), timed (with settable
interval), timed upon variation (with settable threshold and interval).
The View App can be used to set:
- The maximum power draw threshold (depending on the contract power on the line).
- Warning threshold (which must be less than the maximum power draw threshold). See fig.

WEEE - User information
The crossed bin symbol on the appliance or on its packaging indicates that the product at the end of its life must be collected separately
from other waste. The user must therefore hand the equipment at the end of its life cycle over to the appropriate municipal centres for the
differentiated collection of electrical and electronic waste. As an alternative to independent management, you can deliver the equipment you
want to dispose of free of charge to the distributor when purchasing a new appliance of an equivalent type. You can also deliver electronic
products to be disposed of that are smaller than 25 cm for free, with no obligation to purchase, to electronics distributors with a sales area
of at least 400 m2. Proper sorted waste collection for subsequent recycling, processing and environmentally conscious disposal of the old
equipment helps to prevent any possible negative impact on the environment and human health while promoting the practice of reusing and/
or recycling materials used in manufacture.

A. Normal operation occurs if there is no overload (consumption below S1).
B. The ALERT 1 phase is activated for 90 min if the consumption exceeds S1.
If the consumption exceeds S2 during the ALERT 1 phase, the lowest priority load (LOAD 4) is switched off; if this is not enough, the next one (LOAD 3) is switched off as well.
P4 and P3 are stored as the consumptions of loads 4 and 3 respectively, to be reactivated as soon as the conditions are right.
C. If the consumption is still above S1 at the end of the ALERT 1 phase, the ALERT 2 phase is activated for 90 min and LOAD 2 is switched off.
P2 is stored as the consumption of load 2.
If the consumption drops below S1, each of the loads is restarted provided that the consumption measured when it was switched off (e.g. P2) is at least 100 W (H) lower than S1.
D. If some of the loads are still off at the end of the ALERT 2 phase, the RESTART phase is activated for 30 min.
Even if the current consumption plus that of the last load to be switched off (P2 in the example) is above S1 at the end of the RESTART phase, the system tries to restart the highest priority
load that is off (P2 in the example) and checks its consumption again.
If the consumption exceeds S1 after restarting it, the ALERT 1 phase is activated again.
If the consumption does not exceed S1 after restarting it:
- if other loads are off, the RESTART phase is activated again (the procedure is repeated for each of the loads switched off);
- if no loads are off, normal operation is restarted.

The length of the current sensor connection cable is 400 mm so, to make the local measurement,
arrange appropriate wiring of the line cables inside the electrical cabinet. The current sensor must
be installed so that the side on which the arrow is stamped is facing towards the system and not
towards the meter.
