IoT smart meters setup process

Register meters, assign them to units, and verify readiness for live reading collection.

Use this tab to keep meter records correct before operations and billing.

What this process does

  • Stores meter identity and assignment details
  • Links meters to units and vendors
  • Tracks active state and controllable capability

Setup checklist

  1. Create or update meter records with serial/meter numbers.
  2. Assign each meter to the correct unit and branch.
  3. Attach the correct vendor profile.
  4. Confirm active/inactive status is correct.
  5. Test control capability (if valve control is supported).
  6. Verify the meter appears in readings after polling.

Good practices

  • Use a consistent naming standard for meter labels
  • Deactivate retired or replaced meters quickly
  • Recheck assignments after tenant or unit changes

Done when

  • Every active unit meter is correctly mapped
  • Vendor and control settings are valid
  • Readings can be collected reliably
