Meter Display

Post by Nevland »

In a resent reply (Paralleling CTs) Jamenson said
"And just as an aside, you can configure this meter (using the EKM Dash software) to only display the values you want to see. If you are only interested in Total Watts and Pulse Counts for example, you can just show these values."
I don't see how to do this using current (v0.0.0.440) Dash software.

Hey there Bill :P

Yes, the EKM Omnimeter Pulse v.4 can be set to only display the values you want to see on the LCD screen. This meter displays up to 40 different values on the LCD screen. Each value has a number on the left hand side of the screen that corresponds with the values in Fig 6 here: http://documents.ekmmetering.com/EKM-Om ... -Sheet.pdf

In the EKM Dash: Click on your v.4 meter> Click Edit Meter > Advanced > Then at the top of this window is the option for "LCD Display"

This gives you a long list of values. Check the boxes next to all of the values you would like to display and then click "Set". Default password is "0"

This works really well, so you can just display Watts for example, or Pulse Counts. Or any other combination.

Thanks,
Jameson
