The activation code menu screen allows for programming the unique identifier of the radio in your smart

programmed into your device when you received it. If not, it should be provided by your In-Home 
Display provider. If you do not have it, consult your In-Home Display provider. Once the activation code 
has been successfully entered, it should not be changed. Entering a wrong activation code will prevent 
your In-Home Display from communicating to your smart electricity meter. 
To enter the activation code, use the UP ▲ or DOWN ► buttons to increase or decrease the number 
for each digit. Then press the √ Button to move to the next digit. The digits include numbers and most 
letters. 
When the last digit has been entered, a confirmation message will be displayed. If you wish to correct 
your activation code, select No to go back and correct it. If you are satisfied that you have entered the 
correct number, select Yes to continue. You will then move to the start-up screen. 
Note the activation code shown is an example only. 
Allow meter to connect to IHD 
The  Allow Meter Connect can be selected from the setup 
menu This allows the utility company to connect the correct 
meter to your IHD. This menu screen allows for the utility 
company to send a command to your IHD to be recognized 
by your meter. Note: This process may take several hours to 
a day to be completed by your utility company.  
Set Time/Date 
Although Set Time / Date allows for manual setting of Date and Time this is normally not required, as 
the date and time are automatically obtained from the electricity meter. In cases where the meter 
provides time and / or date, any manually entered time and / or date will be overwritten by the values 
from the smart meter. 
To Set Date, scroll to this option and select. A Set the date 
screen will appear. Use the UP ▲ or DOWN ► button to 
select the desired year, month and day. To help verify the 
date selected, the day of the week will be automatically 
displayed. Press √ to select and advance to the next entry, or 
to complete the date setting and return to Set Time / Date 
menu. 
Although efforts are made to provide accurate electricity cost information, ALL COSTS ARE ESTIMATES FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY, NOT FOR BILLING.
