energy Bar Monitor
The energy bar (located at the center-
bottom of the display) tracks the amount
of power being used by your connected
device. At initial start-up of your Conserve
Insight, the energy use is represented by
one animated moving bar. After 45 minutes
of use, your Conserve Insight will switch
to a “Averaging Mode” and the energy use
will be represented by three moving bars.
Averaging Mode: Your Conserve Insight
switches to this mode after 45 minutes of
use. Once in this mode, your Conserve
Insight can more accurately calculate the
cost of your attached device based on
your actual usage. The Conserve Insight
takes continuous readings of your device
usage throughout the day, both while your
device is on and off. The readout will display
power costs and environmental impact,
averaged over time, based on your usage.

Set rate Mode
Your Conserve Insight is programmed
with a preset rate for the cost of electricity
based on the average for your geographic
region, but it may not match exactly to the
rate you are charged by your specific utility
company. In order to get a more accurate
cost, you can enter your specific rate by
looking up the kWh rate shown on your
electricity bill and then adjusting the Energy
Unit Cost per kWh on the Conserve Insight.
Programming Set Rate Mode: Any time
during operation, if the Pound button is
held down for longer than 3 seconds,
your Conserve Insight will go into “Set
Rate Mode.” Once in this mode you can
adjust the Energy Unit Cost per kWh
to match that of your electricity bill.
In “Set Rate Mode,” press the Watts button
to increase your Energy Unit Cost per kWh
and the CO2 button to decrease this cost.
