Hello all,

I scavenged the net but wasn't able to find a more or less ready made optical sensor for getting a pulse from my gas meter. The gas meter has a small mirror on the last digit 6.

Is there someone out there who has connected a similar gas meter to a Flukso?

What I'm after is a sensor which I can build myself as I'm fairly handy with a soldering iron.

An idea I came across: use a CNY70 (but how?) eg. http://www.jojos-homepage.de/ft/cny70/index.html

The jpg of the meter is attached.

Thanks, all ideas are welcome. - Jos

Hi, for an industrial application I would like the Fluksometer to connect to the internet via it's Ethernet port and a GSM router. Specifically, I can't connect to the WiFi network at the site, and I wish to avoid creating my own WiFi network such for the Flukso.

Can anyone recommend a low cost GSM router? For example, I found this one, but it has a serial port, not an Ethernet port: http://www.tcam.com.sg/product_tmn51.html

My Flukso does not have a very strong signal and sometimes loses connectivity to flukso.net it seems. I have pinged the flukso for a few hours and see about 5% packet loss (due to the bad signal), but can use the minute-graph to see the current output. The hour/day graph however does not update for hours and usually needs me to either reset (and lose data) the flukso, or connect my laptop to the ethernet port (save settings at sensor-page).

Could it be possible to change any settings to make the Flukso less sensitive to connection problems (or make the flukso retry to establish a connection more often)?

This meter works fine with the gas probe.
You have to remove the plastic cap first.

Hi,
Some times ago, I found in Flukso forum a way to open access to the Flukso box's web interface via Wifi.
I followed the procedure and now I am not obliged to connect physically an UTP cable on the box to modify some parameters in the web interface.

But now I cannot see the Dash/Minute graph any more.

The strange behavior is that I can still see the Dash/Minute graph on my iPad. On my Linux computer, whether I use Chrome or Firefox, I still get the message about a timeout occuring, or about the fact that I am not in the same LAN as the Flukso box.
My computer is connected on the same WIFI SSID as my iPad.

This behavior started exactly on the moment I have modified the firewall of the Flukso box.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank!
