Re: Hunter Douglas errors

Oh man! That was really fast!
I actually reported this post (reference) to the author via GitHub too, and he fixed it faster than I can type :)

This is really valuable, I really appreciate it. Thanks!

I've played with it for a few hours, and it seems to work fine. Great!

Hunter Douglas errors

Hi All,

I recently bought a Hunter Douglas (Powerview 2) system, and connected it with Domoticz.
I use the python script I found at github: https://github.com/jgaalen/domoticz-powerview-plugin

I can change scenes from within Domoticz, also use the manual slider for blinds%.

Most of the time the ...

Adjusting timers by mobile app

Am I missing something, or is it not possible to adjust timers by the mobile app?
If a timer is set for a certain switch, I can see a button on the app that shows the timer settings, but there seems to be no way to adjust them.

I used the free app until today, but decided to use the payed app (now ...

That is usually the I do it too, but then still need a good starting point.

That way I learned a bit with dzVents/lua/python. Blocky only by myself - it looks simple bit you certainly have to stick to some rules. It is not a regular if/then/else for instance.

Re: P1 (slimme meter) Smartmeter cant get it working ?

A cable is a cable... not true.
As I understood, the data from the Sagem has to be inverted. That is done with hardware (resistors) within the FTDI connector.
Als0, I read about bad cables (specially the RJ connector). They suffer with bad connections between the cable and contact points. That was ...

Re: domoticz in synology as package! Available now.

The domoticz version with python is build with python plugin if you need that and you have to install the python3.5.1 from synology before you install this version or the domoticz package will not run.

Nobody ? Maybe, but not always promptly after posting a question.
This is a forum not everyone is continuously monitoring questions.

Anyway, I think the meter is not recognised by Domoticz.
Could be OR the wrong usb port (already tried the other one?)
OR you didn't limit the rate.

Hi Jumbotroll, you are doing an excellent job for the Synology users. Any change that this 4.9700 stable will become available for DSM 6.1 (installing DSM 6.2 requires reformatting)?

Re: P1 smart meter with return values

Yes, I know this ESMR5 responds every one second. It is not wise to use it - messages like "error wrong data - line too long" are displayed.
But it is of no use to log every second if only once per hour is displayed, do to a lack of Domoticz logging capabilities.

Even then: skip the thinking about ...

Thanks Gordonb3 for your help.
I agree that there is still no delivery of returned electricity, but I wanted to be prepared if I install a solar system (without having to reinstall the current meters with the loss of historical data for instance).

So it will show up if the solar system is installed ...

Re: P1 smart meter with return values

Thanks again for your effort!
The json command gives hourly values indeed.

But isnt it strange that the return-values/electricity have to be above a certain point before the counters are installed within Domoticz?

I'll give it a try on github!

P1 smart meter with return values

It must be very simple, but somehow I cant find out.

I added the P1/ESMR5 smartmeter successfully. After adding the hardware, the utility counters for kWh and gas/m3 are added automatically.
There are 3 devices added: P1 Smart Meter (GAS), General (Voltage), P1 Smart Meter (Energy, with data 64450 ...
