Installation

Questions about installing and configuring a Fluksometer.

Flukso FLM not working, no response to interrogation.

Hi Bart.

I cannot get my FLM working again after a power outage.
I have posted in this link with no success.
https://www.flukso.net/content/no-ip-connect
I have emailed you twice.
I am also disappointed that no one has replied to them.
It has been a few days now.
I reply on the FLM to give my rebate figures for my solar input (using PV output as the summary)

This is what happened again:
I tried to add Gerb guages with no success.
I put FLM back to normal.
Was working ok all night.
Power outage in the morning, FLM would not turn back on .
Lights, power, heartbeat , eth, all stationary.

What I have tried.
The procedure in the linked post using WinSCP, Putty etc.
With either I cannot get a response from the FLM.
I have tried 192.168.255.1 and the ip addy's I was using on my network before failure.

This is getting urgent now.
Can you please offer some advise?

Thankyou Bazzle

Minute data not working because Flukso account shows 2 sensors

My minute data won't work because the flukso installation shows 2 sensors. My understanding is that there should be only one sensor shown, as the two sensors are combined into a single virtual sensor.
All of the other time resolutions work and show only one sensor. Only the minute resolution fails.

The error message I see is:

×Error - The call for sensor 500A two experienced a timeout. You are probably not in the same local network as the FLM.

I would like Flukso to help me by deleting the 2nd sensor definition, since I can't find anyway to delete it myself.

This is the sensor definition shown on my setup web page:
f0679eafa10cf03961e3bd266488e288 1e3945152b4a7a326de9ec51771fc168 electricity 500A one

Whats the easiest way to display PV output?

Hi,

We have three phase connected to the three analog ports and its displaying correctly. We also have a solar PV system. Whats the simplest way to get the PV output displayed. Can I just connect a current clamp to the PV input and wire it to port#4?

Or do I need to rewire the fuse box to add something like this? http://www.schnap.com.au/kilowatt-hour-meter/single-phase-electric-kilow...
that can connect to port#4 which is a pulse port?

[solved] No sensors available.

Hi,

I just installed an FLM02B (firmware 247), and added it to my account - it was added successfully, and is receiving the heartbeat correctly.

However, the Sensors tab is showing "No sensors available.".

I should have two sensors enabled (port 1 - electricity, port 4 - water), and both seem to be reporting correctly when looking at syslog:

  1. Oct 16 06:05:09 flukso-* daemon.info fluksod[1042]: POST https://api.flukso.net/sensor/[sensor ID water]: 200
  2. Oct 16 06:05:09 flukso-* daemon.info fluksod[1042]: POST https://api.flukso.net/sensor/[sensor ID electricity]: 200

(It also contains plenty of "processed pulse" messages.)

I also get seemingly valid readings from my MQTT pane:

  1. [1444976954,137,"W"]
  2. 1444976953: /sensor/[Sensor ID elec]/gauge ~> [1444976953,138,"W"]
  3. 1444976952: /sensor/[Sensor ID water]/counter ~> [1444975992,157,"L"]
  4. 1444976952: /sensor/[Sensor ID elec]/counter ~> [1444976940,2607,"Wh"]
  5. 1444976951: /sensor/[Sensor ID water]/gauge ~> [1444975992,378,"L/day"]
  6. 1444976951: /sensor/[Sensor ID elec]/gauge ~> [1444976951,139,"W"]

Any idea what could be wrong?

Thank you
