Looks really promising!!
This is exactly what I lookin for.
The safety concerns in this project is right on target!

@sundberg84 yes, irl can be tough
I'll be watching your project, keep up!

I don't know how, but now it seems to work. Restarted Domoticz, thats all.
Now the value on the dashboard updates direct when a new data comes.
Thanks for your inputs!

@gohan said in Slow Power Meter Update speed:

It is showing temperatures changes very quickly as it is showing switches changing status (1 or 2 seconds delay, but it is still quick enough). I have both pulse meter and a sonoff pow that are sending data (sonoff is using mqtt so data is sent quickly), but the domoticz dashboard isn't updating even if you actually see the timestamp being updated.

Hi!
Did you manages to solve this?
Using version: 4.9700 and have the same slow updates...

@Anticimex Ahh, now I get it!! Thanks for helping me out here!

Cheers

@Anticimex Ok, just thought when signing failed, the node was halted
So that control mechanism need to be implemented in my sketch then?
Great, I will use the log parser!

Hi!
Starting to learn signing. I use a parallell system (with another channel) where I could test signing before I went on my live system. For now I just use soft signing, it works perfect!

Now, I just want to test a node (motionsensor) that include:

#define MY_SIGNING_REQUEST_SIGNATURES

The gateway has no signing feature (it has not gone thru personalition process) In my head, the node shall reject to connect to this gateway, but after the signing fails, it start to send data to the gateway. Did I miss something here?

Thanks!

@breimann Thanks, does any one want link to dirtypcbs?

Hi!

Yes, please send links, really good design!

Regards Rickard

I use Dzvents for Lua programming in Domoticz, there is some good examples that you mayby can use.

Hi,

I'm using this fantastic code as well. This is working on 2.0

Next step for me would be to be able to create an array with more messages, so that the display could cycle thru them.

    - You can also input messages from the Serial monitor (testing)
