+====== Swissnox S-Watt ======
-{{:hardware:channels:meters:power:swissnox_s-watt:s-watt_internal.jpg?640}}
-=== opening ===
+The Swissnox S-Watt is a cheap S0-Impulse energy meter. Its available on eBay and Amazon for around 18 €.
-the two halves of the case are held together by the (snapped on) covers at the terminals, and slighty glued at the bottom.
-jam a large scredriver in between the case and covers from the bottom (remove the rail clip first, also using a little violence), and pry them off (in some of my devices some glue got in there too, tough luck).

+===== Modification to get a high pulse-rate output =====
+By doing a few easy steps, you can change your S0 Output to a very high frequency output.
+See schematic below. Black wires are already there. Grey wires are also there but only for layout purposes. The red wire shows, where u have to work.
+{{:hardware:channels:meters:power:swissnox_schematic.png?300|}}
+It's very easy to do. Just lift one pin of the Optocoupler and connect it to a via as shown in the picture.

+And you're done!

+==== Calibration ====
+Calibration can be done very easy when you read out the eeprom.
+The value on 0x03 multiplied by 2000 is the High Speed imp/kWh.
+In the case of the first Swissnox above: 0xCF * 2000 = 410.000 imp/kWh
+I verified this, by counting the 7755 pulses between the pulses of the normal S0 output. They are exactly the value 0x03 of the eeprom!
+Note that 410.000 imp/kWh are not set in stone. After modifying 16 S-Watts and recalibrating them using actual measurement rather than reading the EEPROM, I found that mine are now between 242 and 256 times faster than before (that would be between 484.000 and 512.000 imp/kWh). Every S-Watt will behave differently after the modification and every one needs to be calibrated.
+== Impulse Width ==
+The width (duration) of an impulse drops from 70-90ms to 0.5ms after the modification. Depending on what counter you use and how many S-Watts you like to keep track of, it could be easy to miss a few pulses, so it is important to keep this in mind.
+It is also likely that with currents greater than 13 amperes (roughly 3000 Watts), the impulse width might decrease even further. Assuming we have an S-Watt measuring 10.000 Watts (it is certified up to 50 amperes = 11.500 Watts) and it produces 500.000 imp/kWh, we'd have 500.000 impulses every 6 minutes, or (roughly) 100.000 imp/min, or ~1400 imp/s. It is unknown to me how the S-Watt would handle such high impulse frequencies.

 then gently pry apart the side covers from the display side, until the glue breaks.
