INSTALLATION
Wireless Setup Range
The energy monitor and surge protector communicate in two-way. To ensure
energy monitor and surge protector communicate with no interruption, please
locate and setup both devices within 100 Ft of range.
Install Wall Tap Surge Protector
The single outlet wall tap surge protector allows the user to track electricity
consumption of individual home appliance and protect it against surge and voltage
spikes.
1. Plug in the wall tap surge protector to a powered 125V AC outlet.
2. Plug in the appliance into the wall tap surge protector outlet.
3. The outlet power can be manually turned ON/OFF by pressing the “Manual
ON/OFF” button on the wall tap surge protector. You may also turn ON/OFF the
outlet power remotely by using the energy monitor (see the operating
instruction – channel mode).
Install Strip Surge Protector
The strip type surge protector allows the user to track electricity consumption of
group home appliances by area and protect them against surge and voltage spike.
1. Connect home appliances to the “ENERGY SAVER” outlets. These outlets are for
appliances which do not need to be on all the time and can be completely turned
off when not in use to eliminate stand-by power waste. The “ENERGY SAVER”
outlets can be controlled ON/OFF by remote energy monitor (see the operating
instruction – channel mode).
2. Connect home devices to the “ALWAYS ON” outlets. These outlets are not
switchable and provide continuous power for appliances which always need to
stay on at all time.

outlet.
4. The “ENERGY SAVER” outlets power can be manually turned ON/OFF by
pressing the “Manual ON/OFF” button on the strip surge protector.
Wall Mount the Strip Surge Protector
1. There are mounting holes on the back of the strip surge protector for wall or
base board mounting.
2. Install screws (not included) on wall or baseboard surface (leaving at least 1/4
inch of the screw exposed).
3. Place and secure the Surge Protector on mounted screws.
INITIAL SETUP
Install Battery in Energy Monitor
Open the battery compartment on the back of the energy monitor and install 4 x
AA 1.5V alkaline batteries with right polarity.
Warning: Reversing the polarity may damage the product.
Once batteries are installed, the energy monitor will turn on and enter initial setup
mode. Please proceed and refer to the next instruction for initial setup.
Note:
Batteries are not included in the product kit.
Please do not mix and match different types / new & old batteries in use with the
energy monitor.
Use an AC/DC Adapter (Optional)
The energy monitor can operate with a 9V AC/DC adapter, which can be purchased
separately.
When the AC/DC adaptor is used in conjunction with batteries installed, the energy
monitor will be powered by the AC/DC adaptor to save batteries life in the energy
monitor.
Wall Mount the Energy Monitor
1. Select a spot within the wireless range to mount the supplied wall bracket for
the energy monitor.
2. The ideal locations for the energy monitor wall mount are entrance of a room or
location where the energy monitor can be easily seem and accessed.
3. Use adhesive tape or supplied screws to securely attach the supplied wall
bracket to a wall.
Perform Energy Monitor Initial Setup
Please perform the following initial setup steps for first time operation
1. Date & Time Setup
2. Currency Setup
Note:
During anytime, you may press the SET button for 3 seconds to enter setup
mode and change currency, electricity rate, and carbon emission rate.

Carbon Emission Setup
Carbon dioxide is emitted in the process of producing electricity by burning coal
& fossil fuel. This is usually referred to CO2 footprint or carbon emission, which
in turn has contributed global warming and caused abnormal weather.
The average carbon emission rate is 0.49Kg (1.08 lbs) of carbon emission for
every 1 KWH of electricity produced. This can be changed depending upon your
local electric utility. Please contact your local utility for carbon emission rate.
The average carbon emission rate is 0.49Kg (1.08 lbs) of carbon emission for
every 1 KWH of electricity produced. This can be changed depending upon your

in Watts, energy cost in $/hr, and carbon emission in Kg/hr.
View projection energy information for the channel
The energy monitor reads your device energy usage continuously while your
device is on and off, and calculates the projection energy information base on real
time and historical measurements.
We suggest let the energy monitor measure device several typical use cycles, and
the projection energy information will be more accurate.
In Projection Mode, the energy monitor will display energy consumption in KWH,
energy cost in $, and carbon emission in Kg.
Use the MODE key to change from daily / monthly / yearly projection energy
information.
