I am trying to connect these two sensors so that I can read them in domotic but unfortunately it does not work as long as I show the temperature of all sensors in the terminal, but in domoticz not anymore. Can anyone help me.
MySensors is built around nodes that collect data and send it over radio to a gateway connected to the controller.
For your application, it sounds like you would create a node that collects information from your controller. Then you would need to add a MySensors gateway to your Domoticz setup.
I'm not sure what you mean when you say your controller can transmit the information. If your controller and Domoticz are on the same network, you could have your controller send data directly to Domoticz using http. There is info about that in the Domoticz Wiki. Or, if your controller and Domotics are on the same network, you could add a MySensors MQTT gateway to the network and have your controller sent data using MQTT messages.
Take a look at the Getting Started and Build pages on this site and you will get a good idea of how MySensors could fit in.
I have found a workaround by sending the heartbeat message as a separate V_MULTIMETER child. This then gives me a voltage reading of 0V every 30 seconds that I can use with the Domoticz last update feature
Would like to hear any better ways of doing this.
I use a BME280 sensor for outside and some 18b20's for inside. Domoticz works with these without problems but I do not use OTA - not figured that out yet I had to cut out all the weather prediction code on for the BME280 to make it run on a pro mini 3.3 but Domoticz has basic prediction built in.
Hi @David-Marlinge
I have struggled with these meters in Domoticz also. I am using an S_Power meter for an energy monitor which looks like what you are using. This is my understanding:
The value on the top of the bar is the power you have most recently sent (in Watts).
Domoticz calculates kWh from the watts and the time it was sent.
kWh used today is shown on the Utility screen (your 2036.992).
Overall kWh is what is shown on the device tab (your 2311414.016).
I present an S_POWER device, then measure the current and multiply by the voltage to get the power in watts. Then I send that with a V_WATT message. I don't calculate the kWh. Domoticz calculates kWh from the Watts I send and time I send it.
For example:
present(CHILD_ID_PWR, S_POWER, "Emon 38/26H");
. . . . . . . .
MyMessage Msg_Pwr(CHILD_ID_POWER, V_WATT);
. . . . . .
send(Msg_Pwr.set(Pwr, 1));
Then the Pwr value should show up in that top bar. Domoticz will calculate the kWh used based on the time of the power updates.
I have not really used the V_KWH variable, so I'm not sure how that fits in with this one.
@boum I did it in this way from some time, but it looks less elegant. I have to make many virtual devices in domoticz, devices which send data to my lcd node. It works, but i think sending data directly to lcd will work better (or not... :))
The best solution would be ask directly domoticz (gw) about data sending from other node, but propably its not work in that way
