Installation

Questions about installing and configuring a Fluksometer.

my flukso electricity dashboard polls about 1 minute in the future?

hi guys,

I am using 2 methods to measure my e-consumption.

one flukso measures via the 3 "50amp current clamps" and
my second flukso measures via S0 1000imp/kwh electricity meter. So I have two graphs in my flukso electricity dashboard.

the only problem I have is that the graph for the S0 electricity meter is about 1 minute in "the future" :D

is there any way to fix that besides an hard reset (power off/on the flukso)?

cheers

connect to a hidden wlan

For my home installation, I would like to connect my FLMv2 to my neighbour's WLAN (don't ask why, but take my word for it: with his consent). Basically, I can't change his network configuration. He has a hidden ESSID (which he of course told me), and no encryption.
Since adding the essid in the FLM front-end didn't work, I edited the /etc/config/wireless configuration file and set "hidden" to "1". Restarted the network with /etc/init.d/network restart... unfortunately to no avail.
Does anyone have such a setup & get this to work?

Fluctuations in minute mode

Now that I have the Minute tab working (thanks Roggy!), I find that the reading jumps up and down a lot, even when I know that actual power consumption is constant (or, at least, much more constant than suggested by the reading). I've attached a screen shot of the consumption in Minute mode. I see this up-and-down pattern at all levels of consumption, whether high or low. The reading jumps between high and low with every output. I see the same pattern in the Hour tab, just on a coarser scale.

The fluctuations are large, typically a little more than ±10% of what I assume is the real value.

I'm measuring consumption by monitoring the pulse output of my 3-phase meter (400 pulse per kW/h, that is, 1 pulse for every 2.5 W/h).

Does anyone know what causes these up-and-down readings?

Thanks,

Michi.
