Fluvius P1 does not show gas consumption

[ThibautVos]

Hi,

I have the new smartmeter from Fluvius, and my electricity data is showing up nicely in Domoticz, but I do not get gas readings... In the log I see:

Code: Select all

However, even though accept new hardware is set to 'on', I don't see a gas meter device appearing in the device settings... Anyone an idea what next I can try? I've checked the P1 data with Putty (serial) and I see m3 reading being sent through...

Thanks!

If it helps, this is the telegram I get out of the meter:

Hi Thibaut,

See:
https://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopi ... 99#p220099

I think that they deviate in Belgium from the DSMR 5.0.2 protocol.
It is not a pre DSMR 4.0 protocol, as it updates every second.

[Edit] I'm sure, it is different, as Fluvius wrote it down in chapter 4.3 and 4.4 of their document: https://www.fluvius.be/nl/publicatie/19 ... ital-meter

I suggest that you post this problem on github, so that gizmocuz can make a solution for it in the P1 hardware, because it is now the second time that I see a post on this forum, with the same problem.

[Edit] And here you can find the Belgian Extension of the Dutch specification:
https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?res ... pDlhjeOr7A

For your gasmeter, see chapter, 3.3.3 of the document.

Thank you mate,
but there is no solution yet then?

Until Domoticz P1 hardware is updated?
Or am i reading not correctly?

[Xorfor]

I had the same problem with the latest beta, see https://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopi ... =6&t=28889
I am using the latest stable version now.

[FireWizard]

Hi,

@Ropske

As far as I know there is no solution yet, until someone reports it on Github and Gizmocuz makes a change in the P1 "hardware".

@ Xorfor
The solution you use is different from the method, that the P1 hardware in Domoticz uses.
Domoticz reads a serial protocol with a Serial to USB converter.

You use some kind of conversion and probably that unit solves the problem.
https://www.benext.eu/producten/p1-dongle/

The difference in the protocols used in The Netherlands and Belgium is clearly documented. See the various links

[ropske]

Can someone explain me how to report it on Github please.

@FireWizard, thank you for the fast response.

[FireWizard]

Hi all,

I have reported the issue on github.
You can follow it: https://github.com/domoticz/domoticz/issues/3677

Lets wait for a response.

[FireWizard]

Hi all,

Problem should have been solved September 5th 2019.
So check with the latest beta.

[ropske]

Hi,

strange, i'm running Domoticz V4.10717
Build date: 2019-05-09 13:04:08 and it's not running, or is that version the not latest beta as you mentioned?
Thank you for helping!

i'm running Domoticz V4.10717

V4.10717 is that latest stable. Latest beta now (compiled yesterday) is V4.11388

[FireWizard]

Wait a little. I re-opened the issue on Github again. I' m not sure, that it has been solved really.
Let' s wait for a reply.

[Edit] On Github, gizmocuz confirmed, that it has been solved.

As mentioned this has been implemented 6 weeks ago.
There might be remaining issues, but before opening this issue again, test this first.
If it ain't working, please re-open this issue

So please, test with the latest beta release, currently version 4.11388.
If there are any remaining issues, please post the details and I will re-open this issue again.

Regards

[ropske]

ok, i will update to beta now

[ropske]

Update: i could add now the gasmeter.
i will check after tomorrow if its updating. now not at home, so not consuming gas

[ropske]

it is working, that point.

But with updating to latest beta version, it seems openzwave is also updated from 1.4 to 1.6
And now my battery powered devices (motion sensors) are not working anymore

[FireWizard]

Hi

I think this topic can be considered as solved.
So in Belgium the P1 gas meter is functioning as well.

I do not own any ZWave devices, yet.
So I can't help you, but there are plenty of posts, concerning openzwave.
Perhaps you can find a solution in one of these posts.
If not start a different topic.

Regards

[ropske]

Yes FireWizard,

thank you for your help with the P1 gas meter problem.

[heistje]

It looks like this is solved for anybody who wants to work with a beta version... the latest beta version indeed fixes my gasmeter but doesn't work great with my home situation (e.g. my Aeotec ZW100 MultiSensor 6+ doesn't see any movement with the latest betas and with the last stable version it does).
So what for us who choose for a stable version? Is there a workaround? Really would appreciate if my gasmeter would work!
Thx!

Hi,

Due to Belgian (Flemish) legislation, Belgium smart meters differs slightly from Dutch smart meters. Therefore an add-on for the DSMR protocol had to be developed. As they start to roll-out smart meters in Flanders since the beginning of this year and so the difference in the protocol is known since then, it was obviously not possible to include it in the stable. I'm not aware of a solution to include this modification in the stable release.

However if you have issues, with specific hardware, on the beta version, please check this forum for similar issues and, if you don't find similar posts, please report that issue. This will bring Domoticz forward.

Now your issue(s) is (are) obscured in a thread, that is considered as " Solved" .

Regards

[heistje]

Ok understood!
I posted my problem here: https://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopi ... 34#p229134
Hope that's the right place?

Thx!
