¶ Capabilities of the "Emonio" App
The following section contain a brief description of the main functions of the "Emonio" App.
It is updated with each new release.
¶ Find Emonios
 |
After startup the app searches for Emonios nearby. The scan lasts 10 seconds. To initiate a new scan press the reload arrow in the upper right hand corner. |
It is possible that there are small notes beside the Emonios, the give a simple status information.
The notes have the following meanings:
 |
The device has not been configured yet. Connecting to it will start the initial setup wizard. |
 |
There is a warning, for further information connect to the Emonio and navigate to the system page. |
 |

¶ Side menu
 |
Via the side menu you can access the app navigation. The different entries are: Devices
Saved Files
Settings
About

¶ Initial configuration and login
 |
Currently the "Emonio" App only offers an admin access to the Emonio. This means it comes with read and write rights. When you connect to an brand new Emonio, which has the "setup" label, the configuration wizzard will guide you to do the basic setup of your Emonio.This means you will have to set an user name and password. Optionally you can already setup an WiFi network. All additional configuration is done later, when connected to the Emonio. If you later login to your Emonio you need to enter the username and password. To make it easier, you can check the box to save the password for the future. |
¶ Realtime data
 |
After login you will land on the "Home" page of the Emonio. To navigate between the pages of the Emonio use the navigation bar on the bottom. On the "Home" page you have the two subviews "overview" and "detailed". On the "overview" view you see the power usage since the last meter reset. Above the date of the last reset is displayed. Below you see a graph showing the realtime power per phase. Note that this graph is only updated, while you are on this page. |
 |
The "detailed" view shows more metering values of the Emonio. The following values are shown for each phase:
The "total" column shows the sum of all three phases for:
and the average for:
|
¶ Configuration of your Emonio
 |
To setup the Emonio for a measurement you can navigate to the "Setup" page. A detailed description of all the setup fields and their usage can be found in the chapter "Configuration" of the Emonio P3 manual. |
¶ View logs
 |
If logging is enabled you can see the last log lines on the "Log" page. If problems, e.g. with the network or telemetry, occur, you might find usefull information here. |
¶ Download and share CSV files
 |
The files of the Emonio can be downloaded or deleted. After the download you will be able to share the file, e.g. via Email or Signal. To access the functions navigate to the "Files" page. All downloaded files can also be found and sccessed via the entry "Saved files" in the Side menu. |
 |
To download a file, press the icon with the down pointing arrow (on the left). To delete, press the trash bin (on the right). |
The donwload speed is around 6KB/s on android and 1,5KB/s on iOS.
Thus we recommend to use the ap wifi connection to download larger files.

The "System" page gives access to system functions and informations. Device information:
Errors & Warnings:

¶ FAQ
¶ Why is my Emonio not showing up in the app?
AP of the Emonio is enabled
The Emonio is only visible in the app, when the AccessPoint (AP) is not enabled.
If the yellow LED of the Emonio is permanently lit the AP is enabled and thus the app can not find the Emonio.
Please ensure that the AP is turned off.
Additional information can be found here: AP section in the Emonio P3 wiki
