[Domoticz] Electrical Sensor?
-
Hi!
Does anyone use 'electric pulse meter' with Domoticz?
Does the value shown as a 'current usage' meets the real usage of power?
And how often should values be sent to Domoticz to get proper real values of usage? I guess 20 seconds is too often - my energy meter is 1000 imp/kWh and when usage from apartment is low (sometimes may be lower than 100W per minute) it don't get any impulse per minute...Anyway, earlier I was using my own custom built pulse meter which was counting pulses for 1 minute and calculating usage. May it be done with MySensors and Domoticz too?
Here's thread in which I was trying to get info at Domoticz forum:

As far as I know, and what I did is calculating the figures in the node and send them to Domoticz. Example is in the projects "my 12 input...."

I made my own (non-mysensor) setup for reporting electricity usage, as I have a raspberry mounted in the same cupboard as the utility meter resides in.
It reports to domoticz everytime a pulse is detected (1 pulse / wh). reports actual power used (calculated by the arduino), and a pulse count.
