Date and time

Set date and time of device.

NOTE! If you want to establish a connection to the Solar Portal, the time and time zone must be set/selected.

Your time zone
Set the time zone so that calendar-based adjustments, e.g. changes between summer and winter time, can be taken into account by the system.

NTP
If the KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter is permanently connected to the Internet via a network, we would recommend activating the “NTP” option. The time is then obtained from the Internet automatically via a server. In the advanced settings, you can also set an alternative NTP server.

Set time
The KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter runs internally with the UTC time only. This is converted into your local time zone for display purposes. If the KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter is not connected to the Internet or if automatic time synchronisation is not to be used, the time can also be set manually. The current system time and your current browser time are displayed on the interface for this purpose. Click on Set time to synchronise the two times. Your browser time is automatically converted into UTC and set as the KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter’s system time.

Reset – device restart

Click on “Restart” to restart the device. This may take several minutes. The online interface then has to be reloaded.

Reset – reset device to state in which it was delivered

Clicking on “Reset” resets the device to state in which it was delivered. The default password then applies again. To log in again, you will need the password from the energy meter’s type plate, which can be found on a separate instruction leaflet in the packaging.
