sensor-step slightly and position the Sensor Unit so that the Sensor Arm
in the bottom of the unit is directly on top of the meter and that the
Sensor Unit is as far back on the glass dome as possible. Re-tighten the
sensor-strap and then repeat this step.
After 2 minutes the Sensor Unit will stop flashing in order to maximize
battery life.
Once the Sensor Unit is properly mounted continue with section 5.7 –
Synchronizing the Display and Sensor Units.
5.6.2. Side-Mounted Electronic Installation
If you have a side-mounted mounted meter follow the steps below exactly as
outlined to ensure that your PowerCost Monitor™ works properly. Be sure to
bring your tools and your Display Unit to your utility meter before starting the
installation process. For best results, install your Sensor Unit on a dry day
using the following procedure:
1. Lift the Sensor Arm latch and gently push the Sensor Arm all the way in
so that it is at its shortest possible length. Close the Sensor Arm latch.
2. Locate your household utility meter. The meter may be located outdoors
or indoors. If the glass on the utility meter is dirty, wipe it clean with a
damp cloth.
3. Adjust the sensor mounting strap by turning the adjustment screw
several turns with a flat head screwdriver until it is approximately 15cm
(6 inches) in diameter.
4. Fit the Sensor Unit over utility meter as shown in figure 5.11, below.
Ensure that the Sensor Arm is as close to the front of the utility meter
glass dome as possible. Position the Sensor Unit so that the Sensor Arm
is over top of the optical port. If needed, you can adjust the tilt of the
Sensor Arm. To do this, open the Sensor Arm latch, move the Sensor
Arm slightly up or down, and then close the Sensor Arm latch.
