Advanced Meters

There is a prominent number in the top line of the meter display and a less prominent number on the bottom line of the display. The number on the bottom line is the register. The prominent number on the top line is the information held in that register.

In the example to the right, 32 is the register number and the prominent number is the date. On all Network Tasman Meters register 32 displays the current date.

The display panel is constantly scrolling through the registers and each time the register number changes the prominent number in the top line changes as well.

You can manually scroll through the registers by pushing button 1 located below the panel (button 2 is disabled). You won't do any harm by pressing either button.

Your meter could have up to 8 registers depending on your tariffs and the number of meters on your meter board.

Registers 1, 2, and 3 display the energy consumed within your home since the meter was installed on the meter board.
Registers 4, 5, and 6 display the energy exported from your home since the meter was installed on the meter board.

Homes with Solar generation may have all six of these registers depending on the size of your solar installation. Homes with Solar generation will also have registers 10 and 11.

Register 10 records the total energy imported into your home since the meter was installed.
Register 11 records the total energy exported from your home into the network since the meter was installed.
