Aeon Labs DSB09104 Home Energy Meter
Introduction
The Aeon Labs Home Energy Meter is a low-cost energy meter for the entire home. It can wirelessly report immediate wattage and kWh usage of the AC mains to a Z-Wave gateway.
By taking advantage of the Z-Wave mesh network, commands can be routed to their destination via intermediary “listening” Z-Wave products. Products that are Z-Wave certified can be used and communicate with other Z-Wave certified devices.
Z-Wave Network Instructions
The Aeon Labs Home Energy Meter must be paired (included) into a Z-Wave network before it can receive Z-Wave commands to report its energy usage. The home energy meter can only communicate to devices within it’s own z-wave network.
Note: If the Home Energy Meter is not currently paired into a Z-Wave network, the LED on the Home Energy Meter will blink after pressing the button located near the batteries.
