Flukso v2b on P1, no pulses at all.
by on
Recently my smart meter has been installed. It took some time to get the meter working properly as the energy supplier hadnt deployed it correctly and all usage was registered on the night tariff (including the pv output). For a few days now it's actually showing the correct usage for day and night tariffs so I decided to hook up my Flukso v2b and start reading our energy usage. I have had the Flukso for a while and only used it for a short time to read out the previous gas meter with a probe. This all worked perfectly.
What I have done so fas is plug in the phone jack of the data cable in the P1 port of the smart meter (Iskra ME382) and disable sensor 1 to 5 as the P1 port should be recognized automagically. This didnt result in any pulses being registered. It just showed the heartbeat every 15 min. in the log. Strange thing I did noticed after connecting the phone jack is that the Flukso would reboot at least every 3 hours or so. When this happens there is something in the log about a user nobody that logged in. With the data cable unplugged again from the smart meter it does not do this. So for some reason connecting to the P1 port results in reboots of the Flukso. In another topic I read that the data cable supplied with the Flukso was faulty so I also created another one from a (working) phone data cable. This resulted in the same behaviour, no pulses and random reboots of the Flukso with a maximum uptime of a couple of hours.
Oh, I don't think it's relevant but just to be sure. I edited the firewall so I can access the Flukso through Wifi.
I really have no clue where to continue from here so it would be great if someone could help me out so I can finally get this up and running. Below is a clean syslog from right after a manual reboot. I will add a log where with a heartbeat and a random reboot later in the next post.
