Frequently asked questions.
Whyisn’tmySmartEnergyMonitorpickingupasignalfrommysmartmeter?
The smart meter(s) use wireless technology to communicate with the
monitor. If the monitor loses the signal, move it closer to the electricity meter.
Remember that walls, windows and large metal objects can interfere with
signal strength – much like a mobile phone. If your monitor doesn’t reconnect
with your meter, please contact us on 0
Willotherwirelessdevicesinterferewithmymonitor?
It is possible for other wireless devices operating on 2.4GHz (such as wireless
home routers) to interfere with the signal. If this happens, try moving your
monitor to see where it works best.
Couldmyneighbour’ssysteminterferewithmine?
No. Once a monitor is paired with your smart meter(s), they form a unique bond.
They’re also designed to work in areas where there will be other wireless devices.
