thanks @pjblink , I get lots of errors just wondering before I do anything, was this sketch wrote for 1.5or 2.0?
this is probably my issue as I still run 1.4.1
but thought I would run it past you first.

thx doug

@pjblink what a great project perfect for my needs.

Can you post the sketch please
Thanks Doug

@AffordableTech

Looks like a feasible idea, as my stn does consume all the battery on bad days, and yes I needed the diode between the solar and controller to get to the right voltage

cheers doug

HI had my bicycle stolen and was interested if anyone has created a GPS sketch/ hardware to track the stolen item?

@Dwalt I believe your reply caught my problem, in IP address bar I was missing the semi colons on the DEADBEEFFEED mac, It would appear that the issue has been resolved for now .

Thanks a lot!

@Dwalt I think this where the issue is I cant seem to get the My Sensors plug in to show on the vera3 dashboard.

@gregl or anyone with info

this is the second iboard gateway to be set up for me. The first went off without a hitch. It was and is still up and running flawlessly, how ever there is aproblem I have to day.

I believe I have used the same program as is indicated in this thread and have done so by the h/w method.

When using the arduino 1.6.5 IDE and set to Duemilove board 328 processer and proper USB port, when using the serial moniter the message "0,0,3,0,14 gateway started " is what is shown.

However when Iboard is plugged into Ethernet port on modem, there is no interaction on the vera 3 dashboard (ui5) and for the life of me I can not figure out the issue.
The power LED as well as LINK ,SPD, FDX are on steady with occasional blinks of the Rx led
suggesting there is some communication between iboard and modem. As there is no check wires, all in the board seems well.

Any ideas on the problemI? I have tried different rf24 and power supplies or have I forgot to do something with the vera. I had usb gateway but it has been deleted from vera3.
Thanks doug.

Edit When I go to the router and inspect for connected things the Iboard does show up under the proper reserved ip (10.0.0.20) with port 5003.

This unit is in remote home and first unit is at residence, both with own vera but both use the same mac dead beef feed.

I have got this to work on my Cdn system 120/240 vac using A0 and A1 pins. The code needed to be changed to address our voltage and another clamp added., but I do have a few questions;

1. Is there a way I can record or view amps consumed in the vera dashboard?

2. I used the sketch above displayed by @chatainsim and in it there are two lines of code with values 29.0 and second 1480 both in green and in brackets. For the life of me I can not find an explanation of these or how the values were arrived at. Can anyone help with explanation?

     gw.present(CHILD_ID, S_POWER);
     emon1.current(A0, 29.0);       // Current: input pin, calibration.
     }

     void loop()
    {
    gw.process();
    unsigned long now = millis();
    double Irms = emon1.calcIrms(1480);

3. Is there a method to show current in phase. I tried presenting CHILD_ID, S_MULTIMETER and MyMessage IrmsMsg(CHILD_ID,V_CURRENT); but got nowhere.

4. There is/was much running up and down stairs from electrical panel to computer and back is OTA IDE what I think it might be-- firmware or sketches can be updated over the air from my computer>vera>gw>node while not needing to access the node? If so there is much learning for me to do.

5. Using arduino 1.6.5, Lib 1.4.1, vera 3/veralite, ui5, Ethernet g/w , win 8.1, pro mini clone

@LastSamurai good idea! Will give it a go!

@mfalkvidd at least I now know why. Guess it is back to saving on IDE
Thx
