Your In-Home Display 

 

Overview  

The In-Home Display by Aztech Associates Inc. is a user-friendly product for monitoring energy consumption and its associated cost 
within the home. It communicates wirelessly to the smart electricity meter installed on your home to present electricity used, its 
estimated cost, and historical energy consumption. This guide explains how to use the In-Home Display and outlines what 
information can be displayed.  
The In-Home Display is lightweight and compact and is supplied with a power supply, so that you can place it in a convenient and 
easy-to-view location. The color of the Light Bar (green, yellow, or red) is used to display different electricity rates at a glance and 
the “speed” of its motion is proportional to the amount of energy you are consuming. The LCD display clearly shows numerical and 
graphical information with the option to adjust backlight intensity for better visibility. 
 
This manual reflects all the features available in the Aztech In-Home Display, your display may not have all the features shown. 

 

Although efforts have been made to provide accurate electricity cost information, 

all electricity cost data displayed by the In-Home 

Display is estimated for informational and educational purposes only and not for billing
