How to setup wireless energy meter from FooGadgets

The Wireless Energy meter from FooGadgets is detected by Tellstick as two temp/humidity sensors. One is the primary sensor and the other is a backup sensor. Tellmon uses only the primary sensor.

Go to http://tellmon.net/profile/SensorSettings.aspx and find the energy sensor. Check the "energy meter" checkbox and enter the number of impulses per Wh (Watt-hour).

You energy meter will most likely be labeled with the imp/kWh value like this:

This stands for impulses per kWh. This means that the LED will blink 1,000 times for each kWh. 1 kWh = 1,000 Wh. In other words it will light up once for every Wh. So the value to insert in Tellmon's sensor options is 1. For 10,000 imp/kWh the value to insert is 10.
