    AMP Monitor Tile

    Hello, not sure if I'm missing something but i think I've seen a Tile on Fusion that monitors the power consumption being used by the Apex?? Can someone advise if this available and if so how do you get it onto fusion.

    Do you have an Apex 2016 or Apex Classic? EB8 or EB832? Individual outlet power monitoring is only available with the Apex 2016 and EB832.

    I think its a classic apex, not the new one, the all black one, got it last year. I have seen videos on youtube with AMP tiles from 2 years ago though??

    Yeah, that's the Apex Classic.

    The Apex Classic will show totals amps for the EB8:

    The Apex 2016 will show amp/watt for individual outlets on the EB832:

    Is this just for the US version, as I'm from the UK I'm guessing we won't have that feature?

    Are you using the EB6 (six outlets, 240v)?

    Sorry, i should have saw your "Location" and put that together first. You're correct, the EB6 does not have power monitoring capabilities. The Apex 2016 is available in Europe but there currently isn't a compatiable EB832.

    So just to confirm, I have a EB6 (UK) and the APEX 2016, is it right I can't even monitor the AMPS?

    Correct; the UK variant of the EB6 does not have an Amps sensor.
    Please do not send me PMs with technical questions or requesting assistance - use the forums for Apex help. PM me ONLY if the matter is of a private or personal nature. Thanks.

    Damn, I knew I wouldn't get the new power bar but I assumed the EB6 and the EB8 were the same apart from the 2 additional sockets. That is really disappointing for us non US customers. Did Neptune leave out the hardware in th EB6 or is this some coding not complete in Fusion?I

    On the plus side, I am loving Fusion, it is awesome.

    The hardware isn't there. I am speculating, but I assume it either had to be left out due to some engineering problem like space constraints or some requirement for CE certification.

    You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.

    Click the EB832 to expand it. Click again to see a different view.

    You click on the tile with amps watts and volts and it expands the individual outlets
