Re: dzVents kWH Power Device returns wrong day-total information

I think that is a known issue. Any today total is only updated once there is a new value. So if there is no new value, it is not updated and it will continue to show the old value.

How is your device updated? Only when there is an increase?
What if you update it with the existing same value?

Re: String variable editing does not allow the "+"

Restart your windows computer. It seems Windows and your keyboard have a communication problem. Did you try your own solution? I don't think this is the issue. When I test, I have the same problem and this is probably because the + sign is a special character, maybe interpreted as a concatenate ...

Re: The block turns on the relay between values ​​600 and 1500 and above 2000

Your question is not clear. Are L1 and L2 your relays?
Your point 2 and 3 are exactly the same.
The end of your post is missing.

Re: Controlling the heater from photovoltaic production

So I guess the heater consumes 2000 W as soon as it is switched on and therefore you only want to switch it on if you have a surplus of 2000 W, i.e. 2000W unused solar energy? You don't want to switch it on if the surplus is 1000W because then you would still draw the other 1000 from the grid? In ...

Re: Alfen Eve charger control

Did you check the Alfen forum on tweakers? Quite some good experts present on the Alfen wallboxes. It is correct that the Alfen wallbox only allows one connection at a time, so if the Domoticz plugin is active you cannot use the MyEve or AceInstaller software. I see that someone with HA sets the max ...

Re: Alfen Eve charger control

I think you need to consider the wallbox just as a electricity outlet and do the start/stop control from your car.
Don't you have a car plugin that links to domoticz?

Re: how to include an image into a post on this forum ?

Hello, You can upload the image as an attachment and use "place inline" to display it. Or, copy the image link from an external site and use the link tag. And for image compression you can use online image compressor tool for better quality. A bit late (after two years) but thank you anyway.

Re: Negative Value Smart meter P1

In the code shown it will switch ON when actualWatt for example -1000, -1100, -1200 etc. and switch OFF when for example -100,0, 100 etc. Is that what you want? Should the second statement maybe be "> 200" instead of "> -200" ? Check you number signs and the > and < operators.

Re: script to load ENTSOE day ahead electricity prices

They are moving the transparency platform to a new website and doing data migration.
The API seems to be working still, not sure how much that is going to change.
They had some emergency outaged as well on Oct 10 and 11.
