Resetting Measurements 

For many parameters the minimum, maximum and/or total is saved to give an easy overview of 
load activity. These values van be easily reset by pressing the Reset link for that value. 
 

 

 
The following parameters have resettable values: 
 

 

Individual & total amperage

 

o

 

path: Power > Current 

 

Individual & total wattage

 

o

 

path: Power > Power 

 

Individual & total power factor

 

o

 

path: Power > Power 

 

Individual & total real energy (kWh)

 

o

 

Note:

 The 

Accumulated kWh

 counter is not resettable! 

o

 

path: Power > Energy 

 

Individual & total Apparent Energy (kVAh) 

o

 

Note:

 The 

Accumulated kVAh

 counter is not resettable!

 

o

 

path: Power > Energy 

 

Temperature 

o

 

path: Environment > Ambient

 

 

Voltage 

o

 

path: Environment > Electrical 

 

Note:

   Clicking a Reset link in the column header will reset all values in that column, except for 

the value in the Total row. 

Startup Delay 

path: Settings > Startup Delay & Outlet Importance 
 
The 

startup delay

 shown in the table is the time in seconds at which the designated outlet will 

switch on after boot. By default the delay is set incrementally over the outlets to reduce the 
overall power peaks of booting loads. 
 

 

 

Note:    

An outlet will only switch on at boot if it was on before the EnergySwitch was powered 
down.
