Availability

This integration is available in supported app versions.

Preconditions

  • Your IOMeter device is installed and visible in the IOMeter app.
  • You have an active IOMeter account.
  • Official website: iometer.de

Activate Scharr in the IOMeter app

  1. Open the IOMeter app and tap the menu icon (top left).
  2. Tap Partners.
  3. Find Scharr and enable the partner switch.
  4. Tap Meter reading.

How to connect IOMeter

Connect your meter in Scharr

Open meter setup in Scharr and paste your copied IOMeter meter number.

Troubleshooting

If IOMeter cannot connect to Scharr, please check the following points first. They are almost always the cause:

  • Is Scharr enabled as a partner in the IOMeter app? Check this as shown in step 3 in the image above.
  • Copy the meter number directly from the IOMeter app, as described in step 5, and paste it into Scharr. Please do not type the number manually from the meter or from the app. This often causes 0 and O to be mixed up, or the serial number to be entered instead of the meter number.

With IOMeter integration, you can:

  • Monitor real-time energy consumption and grid import/export.
  • View historical power data with 5-minute resolution.
  • Track energy usage over time.
  • Configure as a net meter or consumption meter.
