Hello,

Thank you for purchasing GREENIEE and welcome to a better world of smartly managed energy. GREENIEE helps you understand your energy consumption in detail and lets you manage your consumption in an energy efficient manner, thus saving you money.

This starter guide contains a quick reference to the features and functionalities of GREENIEE

Did You Know

Atleast 20-30% of the energy you receive from the grid Is being wasted on your premise. A major reason for this wastage is a lack of visibility into

energy usage. This means that some of your appliances may not be running in an optimal condition; Some heavy load appliances might be running during peak hours, some older appliances might be consuming higher

power.


What is GREENIEE ?

GREENIEE is an IoT based energy monitoring solution that gives you complete visibility of your energy consumption 24 x 7. You start by installing a completely plug and play, retrofittable hardware, which can be installed non-intrusively on any existing electrical infrastructure in less than 30 minutes. Once the hardware is powered up and connected to the internet, you start getting data on our web dashboard or mobile app. You can access this information from anywhere in the world, thus giving the user complete freedom and control in today’s mobile world.

Features

● Plug and Play ● Retrofittable ● Cloud based ● Industry grade security ● Appliance level usage data ● Detailed Reports on Web Dashboard ( https://greeniee.com ) – hourly, daily,

monthly usages and comparisons, Time of Day usage, Appliance health, Carbon emissions

● Android / iOS app


GREENIEE Hardware

Technical Specifications

• Power consumption of Device : < 2 Watts (Under Normal conditions) • Working Voltage Range : 100 to 265 V ac • Operating Frequency : 48 ~55 Hz • Operating Temperature Range : -20 to 60 Degree Celsius • Maximum Current Rating : Depends upon the Current Transformers ( CTs )

in the package. It could be 160 A, 200 A or 400 A. Kindly confirm that all 3 CTs in your package are of the same rating.

Note : Care must be taken while connecting Current transformer to load. Because if the load exceeds the maximum current rating of CT, the metering circuit of device may get damaged.

Also changing Current transformers having different Current ratings may need a little modification on device’s hardware and software, which should be performed in the GREENIEE manufacturing lab.


Setting up your GREENIEE

Installation Procedure

1. Identify the RED, YELLOW, BLUE and BLACK wires in the 4CORE cable on the hardware unit.

2. Remove the insulation of these 4 wires. You can leave about 3cm uninsulated.


3. Identify a point ( or isolator ) on the distribution panel that can be used to tap the three phase voltage – i.e. three phases ( RED, YELLOW, BLUE ) and Neutral. It could be a spare switch or 4 pole MCB on the distribution panel.

4. Switch off the incoming isolator and connect the 4 wires from the hardware - RED, YELLOW, BLUE and BLACK respectively.


5. Take a CT and clip on first phase cable (say RED). Plug in the audio jack male to the female connector marked RED on the GREENIEE hardware.


6. Repeat step 5 for Second (YELLOW) and Third (BLUE) phases, if this is not a single phase connection.

If it is a 2-phase connection, please make sure that RED and YELLOW are connected. Avoid connecting CT on BLUE phase.

If it is a 3-phase connection, please make sure that all three phases are connected.

Please make sure that you connect the corresponding CT audio jack to respective female slots on the GREENIEE hardware. Data measurement can go wrong if the connection is incorrect.

7. Double check the connections ( both voltage probes and CTs ) for correct phase sequences (R, Y and B).

8. Switch on the incoming isolator and observe the LEDs of the Device.

LED Status What does that mean ? BLUE LED blinks twice consecutively every 15 seconds

Wi-Fi connection with the modem is successful

GREEN LED blinks once per second Device is collecting power data BLUE LED blinks thrice consecutively every 30 seconds

Connection to the cloud is successful and device is pushing the data

Table 1 : LED indications on hardware

9. Observe the live data on the web dashboard, GREENIEE mobile app or the

GREENIEE Technician mobile app” to ensure that the published data is correct.

10. Please observe the data for atleast 3 minutes and ensure that the GREENIEE hardware is uploading data every 30 seconds, to the server. In case of bad network ( GSM or WIFI ), there could be interruptions in uploading.

Please observe the LED blinks on the hardware. If you do not see three blinks of the BLUE Led every 30 seconds, the GREENIEE hardware has not connected to the server. One possibility is that the hardware was not able to establish a steady connection with the available internet gateway.

Please refer the next section for steps to configure the hardware to an alternate Wi-Fi network.


Configuring to a WiFi network

You can configure GREENIEE hardware to connect to your own Wi-Fi network, in simple steps as follows:

1. Keep the power ON and unscrew to open the top cover of the GREENIEE hardware unit. Please note that, this has to be done by a trained electrician avoid any electrical hazard.

2. Locate the “FLASH” Button near the Wi-Fi module as shown in the picture below.

3. Press and hold the “FLASH” button for 10 seconds.

4. Turn ON the Wi-Fi in your PC or Smart Phone and scan for available networks. You will find a WiFi Network with the name ‘GT_METER_<Device_ID_Config>’. Note that <Device_ID_Config> is a unique alphanumeric value for each device.


5. Connect Your PC (or Phone) to that network, by using the password: 12341234

6. Once connected, please navigate to “http://192.168.4.1” on your favourite web browser.

7. This takes you to the Wi-Fi Configuration webpage, as shown in the image below.


8. Choose the first option “Configure WiFi”. This will list out all available WiFi networks near this Hardware.

9. Choose the network that you wish to configure for the GREENIEE hardware, and key in the WIFI password. Click on the Save button.

10. You will see the message as shown in the above image. This indicates that the

hardware will restart and try to connect to the newly configured WiFi Network

11. Please look for 3 blinks of BLUE Led on the hardware. If the device is still not connected, repeat steps 1-10 again, and make sure you are keying in the correct WiFi Password.


Setting up the Mobile Application

If you are a new user, please click on “Register Now” and fill the respective fields to create a GREENIEE account.

If you have already created a login, key in the respective details under Email & Password field and tap “Sign In”.

After a successful login ( or registration ) , you will be navigated to the homescreen.


When you login, a default GREENIEE device will be set and you will start seeing data from that device. You can change the default GREENIEE device by selecting a device from “My GREENIEEs” tab.

Mobile App Homescreen

If there is no GREENIEE device in your account, the app will prompt you to add a new GREENIEE device. You can key in the relevant information,

• Device ID ( printed in the hardware ) • Name of the panel, where the hardware is installed, • Location details of the premise, and • the Billing information.

Once you have added the device, you will be navigated to the mobile app homescreen, where you can see the day’s consumption, realtime connected load on the RED YELLOW & BLUE phases ( for a 3 phase connection ) and the bill amount. The newly added device will be set as your default device. You can change it by navigating to “My GREENIEEs” tab.

Navigating to other screens ( as shown in figures 2 to 6 ) will get you detailed reports like

• connected appliances, • energy usage statistics(Daily, Monthly, Yearly), • bill summary and energy usage of individual appliances, • notifications
