Water and gas readings before software version 1.9

This step-by-step plan shows you how to add water and gas metering to your installation in the Niko Home Control software.

For software version 1.9 or newer, there are additional options; see Water and gas readings from software version 1.9 onwards.

The starting point for this step-by-step plan is a project for which the Project information has already been entered, for which a drawn or uploaded plan is available and to which several inputs, outputs and actions have already been added.

If you do not yet have a project, follow the steps in Add a new project and thereafter in Drawing a plan or Upload a background image.

Go to Creation in the menu at the top of the screen.

Click on add an input.

On the left, you now see the plan of the home and on the right is a selection list.

Click on water reading in the selection list in the right-hand section of the screen.

The icon appears on the plan.

Drag the icon to a place on the plan that you consider logical and convenient.

Assign the input a recognizable name.

Select a location from the selection list or add a location if the location has not previously been defined.

Click on modify basic settings.

A pop-up window appears.

Set the desired reading scale.

Click save.

The pop-up window closes.

Click on gas reading in the selection list in the right-hand section of the screen.

The icon appears on the plan.

Drag the icon to the right place on the plan.

Assign the input a recognizable name.

Select a location from the selection list or add a location if the location has not previously been defined.

Click on modify basic settings.

A pop-up window appears.

Set the desired reading scale.

Click save.

The pop-up window closes.

Click eco-display in the selection list to add it to the installation.

The icon appears on the plan.

Drag the icon to the right place on the plan.

Assign the input a recognizable name.

Select a location from the selection list or add a location if the location has not previously been defined.

Click save.

You return to the start screen of the Creation step.

Now continue with Cabinet set-up and Realisation.

For the water reading, add a pulse counter to the image of the cabinet to be set up. In the assign tab, link the water reading to one of the pulse counter outputs.
