# Pulse Counter Offset

Starting from base FW version 4.4.4 and Aranet cloud version 2.0.68 you can add an offset to the cumulative pulse count.\
In the base station, you will find a new button when looking at the pulse counter settings: "ENTER METER READING".

Clicking on it will bring you to a screen where you can enter the number on your electricity meter.

From the Cloud you can also do this by going to base management and managing the sensors.\
When you choose a pulse counter sensor you will see this screen, wait \~10 seconds for the current measurement to be read.

You can now click on the "ENTER METER READING" button. When you do so you will be greeted by this screen:

Here you can change the cumulative measurement. Then press submit and save the edit to the sensor. You have now changed the cumulative measurement for the pulse sensor.

Keep in mind, that this just changes the cumulative reading, so this can also be done for any other use you can think of and not just electricity meters.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.aranet.com/aranet-cloud-page/aranet-cloud-landing-page/user-interface-and-core-features/sensors/pulse-counter-offset.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
