Tap Back at the top left to return to the meters list.

Add new reading

To add a new reading, tap on the Add Reading button. Enter the value and click on OK. If the new value is smaller than the previous one or if it’s at least 10 times higher than the last value, a warning will be displayed, asking you to confirm the new value. The newly added value will become the last reading.

If you’ve enabled the option Visual Meter Reader in the settings, you can tap on Scan Meter Value inside the input field to use your camera to scan the meter value. Tap on the icon, make sure the meter value is completely inside the small rectangle, and wait until the app recognizes the value. You can still adjust the value before saving it.

If the scanner doesn’t recognize the decimal point correctly, you can use the buttons Move decimal separator ( and ) at the bottom to easily nudge the decimal separator to the left or right, respectively.

If the device is connected to the Internet, new values are synchronized with the server immediately. Otherwise, an orange banner will be displayed below the value, and the status indicator will say “Meter not yet synchronized”.

Warning

On the meters list, meters for which new readings are added on the current day and that are synchronized with Avelon are colored in green. If synchronization is still pending, they will be colored in light orange and will turn green as soon as synchronization is complete. Meters for which new readings have not been added on the current day will be displayed in white.

Correct wrong reading

If you’ve entered a wrong value and want to fix it, tap on the Correct Value button, then update the value as needed and confirm it by tapping on Confirm.

Note that only the most recent value can be edited, and only on the same day that it was added. If you need to update older values or even delete values, you’ll have to go to the Measurements view of the respective meter data point on the web app.
