CONNECTION TO YOUR WIRELESS NETWORK
For normal operation of the device, it is necessary, in the place of its installation, to provide a good signal of your wireless network with Internet access. When you start it for the first time or after a short press on the Reset button, the device enters the wireless access point mode.
On your computer or phone, go to the list of wireless networks and select the smart-MAIC0123456789 network connection. If the “smart-MAIC” network is absent, briefly press the RESET button on your device. The default connection password is missing.
After successful connection, enter http://192.168.4.1 in the address bar of the browser and go to the built-in WEB site of the device.
In the "WiFi and Network" section, select your network name from the list of wireless networks, enter your network password and click the "Connect" button.
If there is no name (SSID) of your network in the list of wireless networks, refresh the list by clicking the "Refresh" button.
Wait a minute and reconnect to the device's access point again. Reload the device settings page and make sure that the connection is successful and the device's internal IP address is in the status bar. Disconnect from the device's hotspot and connect to your WiFi network. Go to the built-in WEB site of the device using the IP address obtained when connecting and continue configuring the parameters.
General tips if you are having problems connecting to WiFi:
For stable operation, the signal level must be greater than -80dB, i.e. better than -70dB.
Try changing the WiFi type to "G (up to 54Mbs)" in the device settings.
Try changing the channel on your router.
Try connecting the device to a different router to diagnose the problem.
For more information on connecting to a wireless network, see the Knowledge Base >>
In the "Device Config" section, select the language of the WEB interface convenient for you.
Change the PIN for entering the WEB interface of the device.
The default PIN is 0000, preventing you from connecting devices to your cloud server account.
The PIN must consist no more than 10 digits in length. Your new PIN will allow you to access data from your device stored on the "cloud server".
In the "Server Config" section, check the connection of the device to the "cloud" server.
In the "About" section, look at and copy the device ID for yourself. You will need the device ID to connect the device to the "cloud server".
IV. DATA CHECKING
Go to the device page in the "Current Data" section and check the correctness of the data. Also check the logic and correctness of the connection if you see the word Revers
To synchronize the accumulative meter [Wh] Energy and [rWh] Rev.Energy with the readings of your electric meter, set the initial values for the accumulated data in the device settings in the
“Current Data” section, note that the device measures electricity in watts, therefore, the kilowatts of your meter need multiply by 1000 to get watts. If your meter displays only the total consumption figure for three phases at once, then you can simply divide this value by three.
RESET AND RESTORE FACTORY SETTINGS
To restore the factory settings, you must use the Reset button. The Reset button is located near the top group of contacts. It has two functions:
Reboot the device - briefly press the Reset button. After pressing the Reset button, the device will reboot and enter the wireless access point mode.
Restoring factory settings - press and hold the Reset button for more than 5 seconds. After restoring to factory settings, the device will reboot and enter wireless access point mode. Connect to your wireless network and configure the machine according to Chapter 3 “Connecting to a wireless network” and “Configuring settings”.
Factory reset does not affect energy storage meters.
The wireless access point mode will turn off automatically 15 minutes after the end of work with the WEB interface of the device.
MAINTENANCE OF THE DEVICE
The device does not require periodic maintenance.
A built-in CR 2032 3V battery is used to power the device clock. The battery installed in the device has a long service life - more than 10 years. Battery life is greatly affected by the temperature conditions in which the device is used.
In the event of a complete battery failure, the device will continue to operate with limited functionality.
Replacing the battery is carried out in the following sequence:
Disconnect the device from the power supply.
Unscrew the 4 screws connecting the device body and remove the upper case.
Remove the old battery from the holder.
Observing the polarity, insert a new battery into the holder.
Put on the upper part of the case and tighten the 4 screws.
MQTT CLIENT
The device supports data transmission and dry contact output control using the Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) service.
You can activate the MQTT service on the device's WEB interface in the "MQTT Server" section.
If the fields "Username" and "Password" are left blank, then the login to the server will be carried out without authorization.
Only non-encrypted connection to the MQTT server is supported.

The device periodically publishes data in the format <device number>. <Topic name> to the following topics:
* parameters are available in the advanced version of the device
To control the “dry contact” output, you must activate this feature on the device's WEB interface in the “MQTT Server” section. The output state is changed by publishing a control phrase to the
<device number> .SETOUT topic.
The service supports two control phrases for enabling and disabling the output. Control phrases up to 15 characters long can be changed on the device's WEB interface in the "MQTT Server" section. By default, the phrase to turn on the output "1" is the phrase to turn off the output "0". Relay control topics should be sent with the RETAIN flag.
CONDITIONS AND NOTICES
The function of checking the data for compliance with the specified conditions allows you to automate the operation of a controlled output or receive notifications.
In total, you can configure up to 5 conditions.
Conditions do not have the opposite effect, i.e. if the condition is fulfilled and the relay turns on, then the relay will not turn off for the same condition. To turn on / off a relay, you always need two conditions.
Conditions are checked from top to bottom, from 1st to 5th. The relay takes on the state according to the last fulfilled condition.
During the check of the switching conditions, the relay does not occur, i.e. the relay turns on or off only after all conditions have been checked.
Note: first, set the condition common to all others, for example, switch off the relay by condition, which is always fulfilled "1> 0"
To exclude false alarms, set the "Filter up to [sec]", the condition will be fulfilled only if the value is in the specified range for more than the specified number of seconds. Random spikes and fluctuations will be filtered out.
The condition check can be limited in time. If you activate a time interval, the condition will be executed only within the specified time.
Set the "Delay after [sec]" relay switching, during which the relay will not switch regardless of the conditions. The minimum time is 60 seconds.
Setting conditions is available on the device WEB interface in the "Conditions" section.
To activate the condition, you must select the data type, select the comparison sign ">" or "<", enter the value for comparison, select the required action.
Example: If it is necessary to turn off the relay when the voltage exceeds 260V and turn on the relay when the voltage returns to 250V, then two conditions must be enabled:
V > 260 Relay OFF
V < 250 Relay ON
Hysteresis is set only for the action - sending e-mail. The hysteresis is designed to prevent the sending of repeated e-mail messages when the value of the selected data continues to meet the specified condition.
Important! Set the hysteresis value high enough to avoid spam. Example of hysteresis operation for condition: V> 260 e-mail
Hysteresis: 20
The event notification function allows you to activate the sending of e-mail messages about selected events occurring with the device.
