Re: EKM Not tracking Utility Smart meter
I went out and double checked my CT's. They are marked 200a 26.9ma, so CT ratio seems to be set correctly. The puzzlement here is that the watts in use, do match. Seems to me we are left with 1. An error in the firmware (not likely but possible) But if this were the case you should have more than on...

Re: EKM Not tracking Utility Smart meter
What really bugs me is that the instant wattage in use does track.

Re: EKM Not tracking Utility Smart meter
Originally hooked my meter per printed furnished instructions. Reverse was incrementing. Video at the same time showed as different hook up. Anyway about three month ago decided to fix it per latest instructions. The reverse reading has not changed in the last three months. Total Kilowatt Hour 14270...

EKM Not tracking Utility Smart meter
No mater how I try to compute it, I can not seem to match the EKM's readings with my utility's (PG&E) smart meter. What does "Total KWH" really mean ? I now see a line in Dash, I have not seen before "Forward KWH". This seems to mean Total KWH - Rev Total KWH What readings do...

Re: Time of Use Reports
I think you missed the point of the question I asked. Total KWH on the 6 month report is different from the total KWH on the normal meter read out on the same day. What does the Total KWH reading on the report for the last month mean ? Where does it come from ? Bill PS the numbers are the same when ...

Time of Use Reports
Trying to make sense of these readings. Can you tell me where these numbers come from and what they mean.
For example Total Kwh on the meeter read 13527 on 10-1-12 Read out on reports showed Total Kwh as 12848. Bill

Termination ?
you might try terminating the 485 terminals at the meter. Mine will not work without the termination. I have definitely determined this. Someday I might get a chance to investigate this further. Those little screws on the meter make it hard to experiment however. Needs DC path A to B ?? Unterminated...

Sowfware-Dash and V3.1.134
:geek: While trying to figure out a way to track my utility bill which is based on tier system I noticed the following. 1. The new Dash software (.288) does not allow (at least I can't find it) the last 6 months reports that V3 provides. 2. The V3, 6 month reports seem to be off by a factor of 10. L...

Firmware
Is the firmware upgradeable ?
In the field ?
Return to factory ? EEprom reprogrammed ? Rom replaced ?
Not possible
Some of the features I would like to see in the future, I feel would require a firmware update.
i will post my wish list in the near future.
