EKM Metering

I answered your email of 11/6/14. No responce I guess it got lost again in the span filter.[img][img][/img][/img] Anyway I'll repost it here. Well the jury is still out over this issue. When it arrived I installed in my portable test set up. It checked out Ok. I was disappointed that the pass word p...

Thanks. I made a copy of Dash file so I could muck arroung in it. The link to a viewer was appreciated. Thanks again.
Dash Questions ?
How big is the file allowed to to grow?
Does exporting data, like a special period, delete that data from the file ?

Where does Dash store the data that I get when I export data from Dash for my v4? I assume it is stored on my hard drive, but where ? and how much of the data is stored ?

Ok v4 233 will be sent first of next week. v4 154 has the same problem. Can send it when v4 233 returns. When you mentioned spikey power I lugged my scope out to the barn and checked . Power from generator looks good as I expected from a revolving field generator. Now that I know what to look for I ...

v4 234 continues to stop counting when I test my standy by system. This has now gotten bazaar. On the April test, when I recycled the meter the password was corrupted. Now on a test made in August The Total Watt hours was changed. 702 hours moved to Reverse KWH. I then interchanged to V4 133. It als...

Re Password
The problem is on one of my meters the password got corrupted on when I recycled the meter after a pulse count failure.
I was thinking of a small jumper on the back side of the meter. Yes I know that's a hardware change. future meters?

:idea: EKM Dash Wish List 1. Away to enter the reading from the mechanical counter on water or gas meters. Software could deduct counter reading and use this as an offset. Software would then add this offset to the updateing pulse count which then could display a value that is in sync with mechanica...

Another interesting clue is: When the EKMV4 is in the fault condition (Pulse counters not updating) It (EKMV4) still processes Port Open/Closed correctly) Pure Spec on my part. Does EKM V4 need additional pulse conditioning? Bios change ? Hardware Mod ? My generator has a rotating field. It takes it...

I test the generator and transfer switch about the 15th of each month. Some months no problem. Cannot guarantee that I tested the transfer switch each time though. I am reasonably certain that it happened on the transferee back to utility power from the load being on the generator. (Not 100% sure of...

Houston We have a problem My EKM (233) stopped counting again on 4-16. This is the third time it has done this. (11/13 ,12/31,and 4/16). It again showed no advancement on 7/4/14. I cannot guarantee that a full cuft of propane was used that day. (Cloths dryer was running and hot water heater was enab...
