Some meters from EDMI do not have a pulse rate written on the front of the meter, which may require a little trial and error to identify the correct pulse rate to enter into the Powerpal app. The trick is to use the "kettle test" to confirm the correct pulse rate.
To get started follow the installation guide to attach your Powerpal to Pulse 1 on your meter and enter 1000 imp/kWh into the app when prompted during setup
Once you are set up turn your kettle on - you should see the reported usage jump by around 2kW. If instead it only increases by around 200W you will need to adjust the app settings:
- Press the settings button at the top right of the app
- Select "Manage" under "Your Powerpal Hardware"
- Select "Change" under "Flashes per kWh"
- Enter 100
Repeat the kettle test and usage should now be reported correctly.
