Home Energy Monitor
- This project will allow the monitoring of AC voltage and current for an entire home from your desktop PC using Ethernet communications.
- Enter the cost per KW from your electric bill to check if the power company is accurately measuring your POWER USAGE! It’s very interesting to visualize how appliances operate and can detect if one needs to be replaced or not working properly.
- This is a great project to learn more about your power usage in the home and what appliances or people in your household that use the most electricity.
- This project requires knowledge of soldering components to a PCB and installing firmware on an I.C. as well as installing software on a PC running Windows 2000 / XP / Vista / Windows 7 32bit.

WIZnet provides WIZ VSP (Virtual Serial Port) software which matches serial ports of the server PC to corresponding IP ports and emulates virtual serial ports over the IP network. With this software, you don’t need to change your traditional server application software using a serial port to use WIZnet Serial-to-Ethernet and Serial-to-WiFi modules.
Please contact sales@wiznet.co.kr in order to download the WIZVSP Installer.
