Pull out the clear plastic tab from the back of the Display Unit and use the power adapter to attach the Display Unit to a power supply socket nearby. After being connected to power supply, the LCD screen of the Display Unit will show as below photo. Now keep the Display Unit powered on at all times. Step 2: Make the 1-way Power Transmitter start to work Keep the Transmitter as close to the Display Unit as possible. Pull out the clear plastic tab (marked with REMOVE BEFORE USING) from the back of the transmitter. The tab is an insulation sheet, once it is pulled out, the built-in batteries will make the transmitter start to work immediately. Step 3: Pairing of the Display Unit with the Transmitter When the Transmitter starts working, it will pair with the Display Unit automatically. Wait for 30 seconds, if the antenna icon appears on the top right corner of the LCD screen, it means that the pairing is successful. When the Display Unit starts to work together with the Transmitter, the screen will clear and the Energy Now value displayed on the screen will change from dashes to 0 Watt first. The monitoring system is now ready to work. If the antenna icon does not appear and the Energy Now value remains as dashes, it means the pairing is not successful. In that case, please press the UP/DOWN key of the Display Unit first to choose the coding channel
(CH01 to CH15) which is to be used for the transmitter, for example, in below photo, CH03 is chosen as the channel number. Lets start from CH01. Press the UP/DOWN key to choose CH01, then press the DOWN key and hold it for 3 seconds. Release the DOWN key when the antenna icon is flashing at the top right corner of the LCD screen. This means the Display Unit is ready for pairing. Now use a slim stick to push into the pairing hole of the transmitter (as shown in below photo) and hold it there until the LED light of the transmitter flashes quickly. The transmitter is now starting to pair with the Display Unit. The pairing may take up to 40 seconds. When the pairing is successfully finished, the antenna icon stops flashing and stays on the top right corner of the LCD screen. The Energy Now value on the LCD screen will change from dashes to 0 Watt. If the Display Unit and the Transmitter failed to get paired within 40 seconds, they will exit the pairing automatically. Please try pairing again. If more 1-way Power Transmitters need to be paired, just choose different coding channel numbers first and repeat in the same way. Up to 15pcs of Transmitter can be paired with one RCS-S22A Display Unit. Note: If more than one transmitter is to be paired, prepare a note and write down the channel numbers and their corresponding transmitters for future reminder. Step 4: Installation of the 1-way Transmitter and the Sensor Clamp The transmitter already has a sensor clamp together with it. You may choose to put the Transmitter in a dry place near the monitored object or stick the Transmitter on the wall near the monitored object. Fix the Sensor Clamp around the null line (also called zero line) or the live line of the monitored object, just as below photo is showing (Dont fix the clamp around the ground wire). Make sure to let the line pass through the clamp. Note: The sensor clamp in the standard package is with a diameter of 10mm. For thicker cable, our 25mm sensor clamp is an option (as shown in below photo). The Sensor Clamp immediately starts to sensor the current and the energy monitoring system starts to work. The LCD screen of the Display Unit should now display the electricity information of the monitored object in real time. One power transmitter can support up to 3 sensor clamps which can be used for up to 3 different single-phase power supply or be used for 3-phase power supply. 3-phase power supply If the monitored object use a 3-phase power supply. You need two more sensor clamps. Attach the DC plug of each sensor clamp into the DC sockets on the back of the Transmitter. Fix the 3pcs of Sensor Clamps around the lines of Phase-A, B and C (Dont fix the clamps around the ground wire and neutral wire). Note: Under single phase power supply, one transmitter can work on up to three objects by using 3pcs sensor clamps fixed around the null line or the live line of each object. In this case, the information displayed on the screen of the Display Unit for this transmitter is a total value of these three objects. Settings and Functions of the Display Unit After the Display Unit and the Transmitter have been successfully paired, we need to make some settings of the LCD screen so that we can get desired information from the Display Unit. First have a look of below photo to get an idea of the meaning of each word and value for the Main Display Interface. The default Main Display Interface gives total information for all Transmitters connected with the Display Unit. Resetting and Data Clearance If the unit needs to be reset and the data needs to be cleared from the unit, please operate as below:
1) Cut off the power (pull the power adapter plug out of the display unit). Then press the UP key and DOWN key simultaneously and hold it there. Now attach the power adapter again to the display unit. The LCD screen will display as below photo:
2) After the LED light flashes twice, release the UP key and DOWN key. The LED light will stop flashing and keep on. The LCD screen will display as below photo:
3) After above content is displayed, the LCD screen will switch to below content to show the programming version. Up to now the data clearance is finished. Please pull out the power adapter and attach it again to let the display unit run normally (without pressing the UP/DOWN key). Coding Channels View If more than one Transmitter is paired with the energy Display Unit, the Main Display Interface gives the total information of all paired transmitters. To view the information of a single transmitter, press the UP/DOWN key to tune into different coding channels for different Transmitters. The CLOCK value will accordingly change to display the channel numbers for all paired transmitters (from CH01-CH15). And the values on the LCD screen will immediately change accordingly to provide real time information for the tuned channels. 1) The Energy Now value displays the current power under consumption of the tuned transmitter. 2) The Cost value displays the total electrical energy consumption of the tuned transmitter in the past 30days 3) The UP/DOWN value displays the change of power. After all available Channels have been viewed. The LCD screen automatically returns to the Main Display Interface. Clock Setting Press OK key and hold it for 3 seconds to enter into the time adjustment interface. First it is the HOUR value flashing, so press the UP/DOWN key to get the correct value for the hour. Then press OK key to switch to MINUTE value and use the UP/DOWN key to get the correct value for the minute. Press OK key to exit the setting. During the setting, if idle time of no operation is over 60 seconds, the setting will exit automatically without saving. Please note that the clock runs in 24-hour mode. History Accumulated Electricity Consumption Press OK key and UP key at the same time and hold them for 3 seconds. The LCD screen will display the accumulated energy consumption as below photo. Buzzer Setting Press at the same time UP key and DOWN key and the LCD screen will display the Buzzer status. bOFF means the Buzzer is off. bON means the Buzzer is on. Press the UP/DOWN key to switch the Buzzer status. Press OK key to exit setting. If idle for 60 seconds, the setting will exit automatically without saving. The Buzzer is used to confirm the successful pairing of the Display Unit and the Transmitters. It will sound a beep when pairing is successfully done. Temperature The temperature that can be displayed on the screen is -9~50. For temperature under -9, the temperature will display as LO. For temperature over 50, the temperature will display as HO. Electricity Tariff Setting 1 Currency Setting: Press the UP key and hold it for 3 seconds until the currency symbol flashes. Press the UP/DOWN key to select your desired currency symbol. Press the OK key to confirm. 2 Tariff Setting: After OK confirmation of currency selection, on the LCD screen the word SET appears on the bottom left corner and the number 00 flashes on the bottom right corner. Now you may choose to set up a single tariff or set up a multi-tariff (up to 3 tariffs):
a) To set up a single tariff:
Press OK key first, the COST value (the second line of the main display interface) will flash. Then press the UP/DOWN key to get the correct digital and press OK key to set next digital until the complete tariff value is set. After that please press OK key to confirm and exit the setting. b) To set up a multi-tariff:
Press the UP key and the number 00 will change to 01. 01 stands for the first tariff to be set up. Press OK key and the COST value (the second line of the main display interface) will flash. Then press the UP/DOWN key to get the correct digital and press OK key to set next digital until the complete tariff value is set. After the last pressing of OK key to confirm the tariff value, the CLOCK value will begin to flash. Now press the UP/DOWN key to set each digital and press the OK key to jump to next digital until you get the complete correct time for the Start Time of 01 period. The Start Time of 01 period is usually 00:00. After the last pressing of OK key to confirm the Start Time of 01 period, 02 appears at the bottom right corner of the screen and the COST value will flash again. Now operate the same way to set up the tariff and Start Time for 02 period and 03 period. After 03 period complete setting up, the screen will return to the Main Display Interface. Please note that the start time of 02 period is the end time of 01 period, and for the same reason, the start time of 03 period is the end time of 02 period. Three periods run in 24Hour circle. If only two different tariffs need to be set up. The setting up process still need to go through 01, 02 and 03 periods accordingly, you need to choose two of the periods and set up the same tariff for them.
