Installation Step-by-Step Guide
1 Completely switch off the power.
2 Remove the cover from the consumer unit to gain full access to
the electrical system.
3 Open the Current Clamp (B1 in Fig. 2) and install it around the
Line cable (usually brown, black or grey). Make sure that the
arrow on the back of the body of the clamp (between the letters
"K" and "L") points in the direction of energy flow (source to load).
The clamp must be completely closed for its correct operation.
4 Identify Line and Neutral outputs on the load of the main circuit
breaker. Connect the blue magnetic connector on the screw of
the Neutral terminal, then also the black magnetic connector (with
a fuse on the wire) on the screw of the Line terminal. It is
important that the magnetic connectors (B2 and B3 in Fig. 2) are
connected the correct way around.
Note: If hard-wired installation is required, the magnetic
connectors can be removed (cut off). Please follow relevant
electrical wiring guidelines when connecting the wires to the
installation.
5 Insert the 4-pin male connector into the 4-pin female connector
on the Energy Monitor (A1 in Fig. 2).
6 We suggest to clip the Energy Monitor directly on the DIN rail if
available.
7 Visually check that the installation of the Energy Monitor has
been done correctly.
8 Switch the mains back on. If the Energy Monitor is correctly
powered it will emit a blue light, which indicates that it is ready to
be configured and connected to the WiFi network.
9 After completing the procedure of connecting to the desired WiFi
network (steps 10 to 16), refit the cover on the electrical panel.
Connecting to the local network
Follow the steps below to connect your Energy Monitor to
your WiFi network.
10 Make sure your router security is set to WPA2 or WPA/WPA2.
Please consult your WiFi router manual for more information.
11 On your PC or connected mobile device, do a WiFi scan for the
network: VOLTA_XXXX (where ‘XXXX’ represents the Device ID).
The Device ID is shown inside the box and on the label of the
Energy Monitor.
12 Select this network and connect using the password: byttwm2015
13 Open an internet browser and enter the IP address 192.168.10.1
in the address bar. Press Enter. Please note Mobile Data must be
disabled.
14 The Voltaware ‘Provisioning’ web page will appear.
15 Select the local WiFi network and enter the WiFi password.
16 Once the previous steps have been successfully completed, the
Energy Monitor will start working and its LED light will turn green.
