03 INSTALLING YOUR METER SENSOR
TYPE 2—ELECTRONIC WITHOPTICAL PORT ON FACE
C. Install Your Meter Sensor
1.Wipe the meter dome clean with the damp cloth.
2.Fit the Meter Sensor over your utility meter as shown, so that the Sensor Head sits as close as possible to the front of the glass dome.
3.Tighten the clamp until the Meter Sensor is snug, but can move just enough to allow for slight adjustments.
4.Position the Sensor Arm as shown to the right:
Note: The LED at the end of the Sensor Arm must be positioned directly over the optical port on the meter.
Note: If your electric meter has two optical ports, align the sensor with the one on the left.
5 . Press the RESET button . The STATUS Indicator will light solid red while the Meter Sensor looks for a signal from the meter.
6 . When you have positioned the Sensor Head correctly, the red STATUS Indicator starts flashing regularly, indicating that the Sensor has detected the signal from your meter. Within one minute, in addition to the regular flashing, you should see an extra flash now and then, depending on your rate of electri c i ty consumption. These extra flashes are normal, and indicate
that the Sensor is reading the mete r’sStatus Light Indicator output correctly.
NOTE: To maximize batte ry life, the indicator stops flashing after about two minutes.
7.Tighten the clamp just enough so that the Meter Sensor cannot move.
Installation is complete! Go to
Section 4.

Find and record your meter’s Power Factor. On the face of the meter, look for a number preceded by the letters Kh, Ks, or Kt.This number is usually 1.0 for an electronic meter. If your meter lists more than one of these numbers, look for the smallest number. Write this number in the box below.You will need it later (in section 06) when you program your Digital Display.
