# MecMeter Binding
This binding reads data from MEC power meter for providing electrical information for the electric circuit.
To use this binding the meter must be installed, initialized and connected to the same network as openHAB.
# Supported Things
The mecMeter is supported with firmware version starting from 2.0.0.
There is exactly one supported thing type meter, which represents the electric meter.
Its unique ID is the serial number.
# Discovery
MecMeters are automatically discovered via mDNS. The IP of the Power Meter is automatically set and can be changed manually if needed. The default update interval is set to 5 seconds. Intervals from 1 to 300 seconds can be set manually.
# Thing Configuration
The thing has a few configuration parameters:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| password | User-defined password during initializing the Power Meter. Mandatory. |
| ip | The IP address of the meter. Mandatory. |
| refreshInterval | Refresh interval in second. Optional, the default value is 5 seconds. |
# Channels
The meter has the following channels:
| Channel Type ID | Item Type | Label | Description |
