I googled and couldn't find good library for energy meter chip ADE7763. Any one have experience with the combination of Arduino and ADE7763 or ADE series chip's?
@TRS-80 I looked at Grafana and InfluxDB a few years ago and found them supremely limited. It may be that I am a MS SQL Server user but the act if trying to do an update/delete of a value in InfluxDB is painful. Running everything through a JSON call to modify data annoys me.
So, all that aside I prefer sending data for long term storage to an instance of SQL Server 2012 - even with 4 sensor nodes + weather queries and some other data that send info every 30 seconds, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, and 30 minutes for a few years. I am not even above 100 MB of storage used. The data types are Date, INT, CHAR(xxxx), and in one crazy case VARCHAR(1000). I use Domoticz's built in sqlLite and hassio's DB to handle the data view from my controllers (yes, I have 2). The split of data occurs in Node-Red where it gets the data from my MQTT broker and sends to controllers (different subscription topics due to C/F fubaring in hassio) and send to SQL Server for long term storage. Efficient storage types is the key so a timestamp as an INT/BIGINT would be nice. As long as all your values are INT as well that is even better. Timeseries DBs do have their use, I have just not found one I like.
If there is a timeseries DB that can be accessed via ANSI SQL that would be awesome.
Other thought - you could use Elasticsearch to send in values as "documents" and then run analysis on them. For dataviz, I use the built in ones in my two controllers and I have written my own to handle long term data analysis. I prefer Highcharts for doing the viz as that is what I use at work. It is clean, efficient, and fully customizable.
Are you still able to use the same analog phone plugged into the back of your modem? If so then it has to still use the same protocol, and I don't understand why the analog beacon wouldn't still work. It would just have to be on that same wire, not on the internet side of the modem. The modem is doing all of the translation in that case.
Or am I missing something? Did you have to get a new phone to use the new service?
MySensors is an EXCELLENT project.
It allows for complete control over the various sensors.
It's extremely simple.
Its drawback is that it's open source, so it's unfunded and development is slow, but I don't think there are any better projects than this at the moment.
@Tmaster I think it writes better code than a lot of code I've seen, and the documentation is a lot better. The latter, of course, is because most coders don't document.
some key elements:
good statement of work -- Purpose of the Code is key (did you write that? Good job!). This will guide the AI to write what you want.
descriptive variables
good documentation
code is independent of reading sensors up-to-down/down-to-up
I spent a couple hours analyzing, researching and writing and re-writing this and all I can say is that the AI didn't catch is, as far as I can see, if your sensors are too far apart or your magnet is too weak, you could get false readings.
You, being the author of AI directive, are responsible for for the code. The AI is just a tool.
I started my coding with assembly language, though at that time we still had to enter the binary on some machines (set 16 switches, then press commit). ForTran and COBOL were the first real high level languages and subsequent languages, pascal, c, java, etc. were improvements. AI is a quantum step. It's still coding, but you have to learn how to talk to the AI to get what you want.
Good project! Let us know how it turns out and if you had to tweak the code.
