Just had the time to git-pull plugwise2py and started to change the domoticz content. Was a bit of work but looks good right now! I also saved the power data I already collected from previous config. All we need is a change to the API: add descriptions to a device. Great job SevenW!! And I think I ...

Ahh ... Can't wait!
Is it also possible to completely eliminate NodeRed and let plugwise2py work directly with the /domoticz/in/# /domoticz/out/# MQTT ? Or is that the next step?
Or do you still need NodeRed for the circle power readout?

I;d wish I had more time to contribute on this...

I do not have yet the killer idea to solve this. There is always a chance of the device getting an external update (due to external switching, plugwise schedule switching, a state-update heartbeat), and there is always the chance that at the same time the switch is operated form the domoticz UI(s ...

I have been looking into setting the switch-state of a circle to domoticz, and switching it with domoticz using the on/off actions. As a starting point I took the Nov. 5th node-red scripts of bloemkool. Note... there is a config error in that/my nodered config. In the power readout function there ...

Although the topic is put to solved, the original issue, preventing update loops is not solved. There is only a work around proposed. The root problem is that when one is using on / off actions for the virtual switches. When a virtual switch is operated from the http-json-api, the actions are ...

Does not take that long on my Rpi... usually a second or 2

Re-reading your question ... Ah, so values are stored in Domoticz but not shown the way you expect? Try to play with the settings in settings -> meters and counters tab. Personally I expect a bar graph of usage per hour and also a bar graph per hour for a week view. But in my case that is a line ...

Can you post your plugwise2py config files? Probably monitoring is off there...

Very interesting. How did you manage to get faster updates for the circles? Setting the interval on less minutes? Or import the 8 second reading from MQTT. Ultimate goal of mine is to log the data of my plugs into domoticz, but I didn't succeed with this. If you did not succeed logging your ...

The original post was an eyeopener for me. NodeRed is pretty cool, did not know it existed. Did some tweaks on the original post, because I wanted the power reading not every x minutes, but faster. I have 9 plugwise circles and also want to switch them on and off. Not only reading the energy values ...
