Re: EKM Not tracking Utility Smart meter

Bill, I am still not seeing enough information (I assume you are on a 120/240 volt system with 2 hot lines). The very best would be to email us the .csv file from your meter reads. To do this you go to EKM Dash> File> Export. Create the csv, this will show us voltage on all line, amps on all, lines,...

Re: EKM Not tracking Utility Smart meter

Hello Bill, What does "Total KWH" really mean ? Total kWh is Forward kWh + Reverse kWh. If you have a system that has power flowing in one direction (from the gird to the house or load in most cases) then you should not be seeing Reverse kWh incrementing if the meter is connected properly....

Re: ekm dash read data error

Hello Vishnu, Thank you for sending us these screenshots, they are very helpful. It looks like somehow you have the meter number: -727379969 entered as your first meter number. This is not a meter number that EKM would have produced. This is causing errors when the EKM Dash software tries to read a ...

Re: Reset iSerial Reader

Re: Time of Use Reports

Hello Bill, The Meter takes the "6 Months of Monthly Reads" meter reading on the last day of the month at midnight. This is according to the meter's internal clock. Is it possible that you were messing with the meter time? It seems like it took its "6 Months of Monthly Reads" rea...

Re: iSerial Read Data Error

Re: ekm dash read data error

Hello Vishnu. OK, there are a few things that pop out to me. First is it looks like you have 3 separate CTs connected, you will only need 2 CTs for this 3-phase 3-wire system. Please follow this wiring video: http://www.ekmmetering.com/information/the-complete-guide.html#answer7 Second it looks like...
