MONNIT 20 Amp Three Phase Current Meter User Guide
I. ABOUT THE WIRELESS THREE PHASE CURRENT METER
The ALTA Industrial Wireless Three Phase Current Meter measures the RMS current of an alternating current (AC) system using 3 current transducers (CTs) that wrap around the wires of a three phase power system.
- Measures amp hours, max RMS current, min RMS current, average RMS current, and duty cycle for each phase and combined amp hours from all three phases
- 3x current transducers
- Capable of generating watt hour or kilowatt hour readings using immunity
- Data logging for accumulated amp hour readings
- Can notify based on amperage/power levels
- Simple and safe installation of amperage/power measurement hardware, no rewiring required
To measure current, clip the CT around a single wire of a powered system
(clipping around a hot and neutral wire at the same time will result in 0 amp
current readings). After the sensor powers on and connects to the gateway it
will begin taking measurements based on the averaging interval (5 seconds
default). It will report data to iMonnit every heartbeat or sooner if the
sensors aware state changes based on the current threshold setting in iMonnit
. The sensor reports average current, max RMS current, min RMS current, and
duty cycle for each phase and amp hours for all three phases combined. These
readings are based on all measurements taken between heartbeats. iMonnit can
also generate watt hour or kilowatt hour readings if a default RMS voltage is
set in iMonnit.
The Three Phase Current Meter comes in three types:

II. ORDER OF OPERATIONS
It is important to understand the order of operations for activating your sensor. If performed out of sequence, your sensor may have trouble communicating with iMonnit. Please perform the steps below in the order indicated to make sure you are performing your set-up correctly.
-
Create iMonnit Account (If new user).
-
Register all sensors and gateways to a network in iMonnit.
Sensors can only communicate with gateways on the same iMonnit network. -
Connect/power on gateway and wait till it checks into iMonnit.
-
Power on sensor and verify it checks into iMonnit. We recommend powering the sensor on near the gateway then moving to the installation location, checking signal strength along the way.
-
Configure sensor for use (This can be done at any point after step 2)
-
Install sensor in final location.
Note: For information on setting up iMonnit and the gateway refer to the
iMonnit User Guide and the gateways user guide.
Note: Device specific setup is covered in more detail in the following
sections.
III. SETUP AND INSTALLATION
If this is your first time using the iMonnit online portal, you will need to create a new account. If you have already created an account, start by logging in. For instructions on how to register and setup your iMonnit account, please consult the iMonnit User Guide.
REGISTER THE SENSOR
STEP 1: ADD DEVICE
- Add the sensor on iMonnit.
Add the sensor to your account by choosing Sensors in the main menu. Navigate to the Add Sensor button.![MONNIT 20 Amp Three Phase Current Meter User Guide

Desktop & Mobile](https://manuals.plus/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/MONNIT-20 -Amp-Three-Phase-Current-Meter-User-Guide-Desktop-Mobile.jpg)
-
Find the device ID. See Figure 1.
The Device ID (ID) and Security Code (SC) are necessary to add a sensor. These can both be located on the label on the side of your device. -
Adding your device. See Figure 2.
You will need to enter the Device ID and the Security Code from your Sensor in the corresponding text boxes. Use the camera on your smartphone to scan the QR code on your device. If you do not have a camera on your phone, or the system is not accepting the QR code, you may enter the Device ID and Security Code manually.
- The Device ID is a unique number located on each device label.
- Next, you’ll be asked to enter the Security Code from your device. A security code consists of letters and must be entered in upper case (no numbers). It can also be found on the barcode label of your device.
-
When completed, select the Add Device button.
STEP 2: SETUP
Select your use case. See Figure 3.
Unlike most sensors, choosing a use case in Step 2 of adding this sensor does
not give you the option to customize your settings. These will need to be
adjusted in the settings tab for your device. See page 9 for instructions.
Select the Skip button when completed.
STEP 3: VALIDATION
Check your signal. See Figure 4.
The validation checklist will help you ensure your sensor is communicating with the gateway properly and you have a strong signal.
Checkpoint 4 will only complete when
your sensor achieves a solid connection to the gateway. Once you insert the
batteries (or flip the switch on an industrial sensor) the sensor will
communicate with the gateway every 30 seconds for the first few minutes.
Select the Save button when completed.
STEP 4: ACTIONS
Choose your actions. See Figure 5.
Actions are the alerts that will be sent to your phone or email in the event
of an emergency. Low battery life and device inactivity are two of the most
common actions to have enabled on your device. See page 12 for how to set
actions for your sensor.
Select the Done button when completed.
INSTALL THE ANTENNA
In order for the sensor to function properly, you will need to attach the included antenna. Simply screw the antenna onto the barrel connector on the top side of the device. Make sure the antenna connection is snug, but do not over tighten.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT (As Needed)
The Three Phase Current Meter is powered by a single pre-installed 3.6 V AA- sized industrial lithium battery that lasts 10 years on average so no battery installation is required on new sensors. On the off chance you do have to replace the battery flip the power switch to the Off position, remove the four screws on each corner of the case, remove the case top, then remove and replace the battery located in the center of the sensor. Flip the power switch to the On position. Recommend verifying functionality before replacing the case top. Replace the case top the same way it was removed (recommend partially tightening screws in a cross pattern then tightening screws completely following the same pattern).
POWER SENSOR ON
Flip the power switch to the On position. To power cycle an already powered sensor flip the power switch to the Off position for 30 seconds then flip it back to the On position.
CHECK iMONNIT
Open iMonnit and verify the sensor is checking and reporting data. Verify the sensor has a full battery level. If you don’t see the sensor checking in, press the button on the gateway and power cycle the sensor.
INSTALLATION
CT Installation
The CTs are designed to clip around a single current carrying wire. Ensure
that the CT is NOT wrapped around a cable with a common and live wire
otherwise the sensor will read approximately 0.00 amps. See the diagram below
for appropriate CT installation.
Mounting Sensor
Location and orientation of sensor and antenna can effect the sensor’s ability
to consistently communicate data and stay connected to the gateway. Refer to
Antenna Orientation guide below for best practices and things to consider. The
sensor can be mounted using appropriate mounting screws or other mounting
material (Note Included).
Antenna Orientation
In order to get the best performance out of your ALTA device, it is important
to note proper antenna orientation and device positioning. Antennas should all
be oriented in the same direction, pointing vertically from the sensor. If the
sensor is mounted flat on its back on a horizontal surface, you should bend
the antenna as close to the sensor housing as possible giving you the most
amount of antenna pointing vertical. You should make the antenna wire as
straight as possible, avoiding any kinks and curving of the wire. Sensors must
be at least 3 ft. away from other sensors and the wireless gateway to
function.
IV. SENSOR OVERVIEW
Select Sensors from the main navigation menu on iMonnit to access the sensor overview page and begin adjusting your meter.
MENU SYSTEM
Details – Displays a graph of recent sensor data
History – List of past readings
Actions – List of actions attached to this sensor
Settings – Editable levels for your sensor
Calibrate – Reset readings for your sensor
Scale – Change the scale of readings for your sensor
Directly under the tab bar is an overview of your sensor. This allows you to see the signal strength of the selected sensor. A coloured dot in the left corner of the sensor icon denotes its status:
- Green indicates the sensor is checking in and is within user-defined safe parameters.
- Red indicates the sensor has met or exceeded a user-defined threshold or triggered event.
- Gray indicates that no sensor readings are being recorded, rendering the sensor inactive.
- Yellow indicates that the sensor reading is out of date, possibly due to a missed heartbeat check-in.
Details View
The Details View will be the first page you see upon selecting which sensor
you would like to modify. See Figure 7.
- A. The Sensor Overview section is at the top of every page. This will display the present reading, signal strength, battery level, and status.
- B. The Recent Readings section below the chart shows your most recent data received by the sensor.
- C. The Readings Chart displays how the sensor readings fluctuate throughout a set date range. To change the date range displayed in the graph, navigate up to the top of the Readings Chart section on the right-hand corner to change the “From:” and/or “To:” date.
Readings View
Selecting the Readings Tab within the tab bar allows you to view the sensor’s
data history as time stamped data.
- On the far right of the Sensor History Data is a cloud icon. ( ) Selecting this icon will export an Excel file for your sensor into your download folder.
Note: Make sure you have the date range for the data you need input in the ?From? and ?To? text boxes. This will be the previous day by default. Only the first 2,500 entries in the selected date range will be exported.
The data file will have the following fields:
Message ID: Unique identifier of the message in our database.
Sensor ID: If multiple sensors are exported, you can distinguish between
the sensors using this number ? even if the names are the same.
Sensor Name: The name you have given the sensor.
Date: The date the message was transmitted from the sensor.
Value: Data presented with transformations applied, but without
additional labels.
Formatted Value: Data transformed and presented as it is shown in the
monitoring portal.
Raw Data: Raw data as it is stored from the sensor.
Sensor State: Binary field represented as an integer containing
information about the state or the sensor when the message was transmitted.
(See “Sensor State” explained below.)
Alert Sent: Boolean indicating if this reading triggered a notification
to be sent from the system.
Sensor State
The value presented here is generated from a single byte of stored data. A
byte consists of 8 bits of data that we read as Boolean (True (1) / False (0))
fields.
When broken into individual bits, the State byte contains the following
information: aaaabcde
STS: This value is specific to the sensor profile and is often used to
indicate error states and other sensor conditions. Not used for this sensor,
will always be 0.
UNUSED: This sensor does not use these bits.
AWARE: Sensors become aware when critical sensor specific conditions are met.
Going aware can cause the sensor to trigger and report before the heartbeat
and cause the gateway to forward the data to the server immediately resulting
in near immediate transmission of the data.
TEST: This bit is active when the sensor is first powered on or reset and
remains active for the first 9 messages when using default configurations.
Settings View
To edit the operational settings for a sensor, choose the Sensor option in the main navigation menu and then select the Settings Tab to access the configuration page. See Figure 9.
- A. Sensor Name is the unique name you give the sensor to easily identify it in a list along with any notifications.
- B. The Heartbeat Interval is how often the sensor communicates with the server when not Aware. C. Aware State Heartbeat is how often the sensor communicates with the server while in an Aware State.
- D. Minimum Threshold: Current readings below this value will cause the sensor to enter the Aware State.
- E. Maximum Threshold: Current readings above this value will cause the sensor to enter the Aware State.
- F. The Aware State Buffer is a buffer to prevent the sensor from bouncing between Standard Operation and Aware State when the assessments are very close to a threshold.
- G. Averaging Interval is how often the sensor measures current.
- H. Accumulate will accumulate current consumption (Ah) from heartbeat to heartbeat.
- I. Show Full Data Value: When On, shows Usage(Ah), Min, Max, and Av current readings for each phase. When Off, shows only Usage.
- J. In small sensor networks the sensors can be set to synchronize their communications. The default setting off allows the sensors to randomize their communications therefore maximizing communication robustness. Setting this will synchronize the communication of the sensors.
- K. Failed transmissions before link mode is the number of transmissions the sensor sends without response from a gateway before it goes to battery saving link mode. In link mode, The sensor will scan and Join a gateway at the following intervals: @ 0 Seconds, 3 sec, 6 sec, 9 sec, 15 sec, 30 sec, 1 min, 2 min, 5 min, 15 min, 30 min, and 60 min, then 60 minutes thereafter. While attempting to link, the sensor will continue to measure. A lower number will allow sensors to find new gateways with fewer missed readings. High numbers will enable the sensor to remain with its current gateway in a noisy RF environment better.
Finish by selecting the Save button.
Note: Be sure to select the Save button anytime you make a change to any of the sensor parameters. All changes made to the sensor settings will be downloaded to the sensor on the next sensor heartbeat (check-in). Once a change has been made and saved, you will not be able to edit that sensor’s configuration again until it has downloaded the new setting.

VI. SENSOR SECURITY
Data security and integrity is paramount at Monnet. Each layer of the system is secured using encryption and protocols designed to protect customer data and information. The system consists of sensor(s), gateway(s), and iMonnit software. One or more sensors communicate with iMonnit software through a gateway.
SENSOR TO GATEWAY
Sensor and gateway radio modules are purpose built devices with proprietary unreadable firmware, which means the sensor cannot be physically hacked or re- purposed for malicious purposes. This adds a strong level of inherent security even before considering encryption. Data transmission between the sensor and gateway are secured using Encrypt-RF Security (Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange + AES-128 CBC for sensor data messages). Beyond the encryption, data transmissions are also structurally verified and CRC checked before they are passed up to iMonnit or down to the sensor, this ensures the integrity of the data itself.
GATEWAY TO IMONNIT
Data transmission between the gateway and iMonnit server is also secured using Encrypt-RF Security (Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange + AES-128 CBC for data messages). Beyond the encryption, data transmissions are also structurally verified and CRC checked before they are accepted by the server, this ensures the integrity of the data.
iMONNIT
Access is granted through the iMonnit user interface, or an Application Programming Interface (API) safeguarded by 256-bit Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.2) encryption. TLS is a blanket of protection to encrypt all data exchanged between iMonnit and you. The same encryption is available to you whether you are a Basic or Premiere user of iMonnit. You can rest assured that your data is safe with iMonnit.
SENSOR PRINTS
Sensor Prints utilize a shared key between the software and the sensor to ensure that once the data comes to iMonnit it is guaranteed to be from the device identified by the sensor print. If this feature is purchased for the device (via iMonnit software) the devices data becomes impossible to spoof by any malicious device.
