Control de retroiluminación 5.2
The display backlight is typically on by default. To conserve energy or for preference, you can adjust its behavior. A quick press of any measurement button (Watt/VA, Hz/PF/SET, KWH/OK, Volt, Amp) will activate the backlight if it's off. Be aware that pressing a measurement button to activate the backlight will also cycle the display to the next parameter for that button. For example, if the display is showing Watts and the backlight is off, pressing the Watt/VA button will turn on the backlight and switch the display to VA.
5.3 Resetting Cumulative Data
To reset the cumulative Kilowatt-hours (kWh) and elapsed time (Hr) data:
- Ensure the display is showing either kWh or Hr.
- Simultaneamente manteña premido o Hz/PF/SET botón, entón toca o KWH/OK botón.
- The cumulative data will reset to zero.
Note: The device retains cumulative data even when unplugged, thanks to its built-in memory.
6. Mantemento
- Limpeza: Disconnect the monitor from the power outlet and wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.
- Almacenamento: Garde o dispositivo nun lugar fresco e seco, lonxe da luz solar directa e de temperaturas extremas cando non o estea a usar.

7 Solución de problemas
| Problema | Causa posible | Solución |
|---|---|---|
| Display shows "OVERLOAD" | The connected appliance exceeds the maximum wattage (1500 W) ou amperage (14A) capacity of the PN1500. | Immediately unplug the appliance from the PN1500. Do not use the PN1500 with this appliance. Ensure the appliance's power requirements are within the monitor's specifications. |
| Sen pantalla/Dispositivo non se acende | No power from the wall outlet; device malfunction. | Check if the wall outlet is functional by plugging in another device. Ensure the PN1500 is fully inserted into the outlet. If the problem persists, the device may be faulty. |
| Readings appear inaccurate | Loose connection; appliance drawing very low power; environmental factors. | Ensure all connections are secure. The PN1500 has a start detection of 0.20W, so very low power devices might show minimal or no reading. Compare readings with another known power meter if available. |
| Backlight not staying on | Backlight auto-off feature is active. | This is normal behavior if the auto-off feature is enabled. Press any measurement button to temporarily illuminate the display. |
