Troubleshooting
Reseting the meter
Occasionally the meter screen may freeze and it is necessary to reset the meter.
Depending on the meter version the reset button is either a) a small black button located on the back of the
meter in the centre or b) the on/off power button.
To reset the meter using the black button on the back of the meter – depress the button using the tip of a
pen or pencil. Hold for a second and release . The screen will go blank and then automatically restart.
To reset the meter using the ON/OFF button – press and hold the ON/OFF button for 13 seconds and
release. The screen will go blank and then automatically restart. Once the meter has restarted it will ask
for the date and time to be set. Dock the meter in the base station and the date and time will
automatically update.
