[154] - CurrentCost Envir support
Posted: Sunday 06 April 2014 19:06
Hi All,
I really would appreciate if Domoticz should support the Envir (Current Cost) devices. http://www.currentcost.com
Before i used Domoticz, i used measureit (Python script) to read the XML from the USB port. (Envir is connected trough USB/COM port to the Raspberry).
Some sourcecode is allready availble at: https://code.google.com/p/measureit/downloads/list
Is there a way to make this work with Domoticz? The current Measureit datagrabber (Python) works very wel! But i can't get apache+mysql-server installed on my Domoticz Raspberry.
The Current Cost devices are worldwide sold (Also here in The Netherlands at some hardware stores like; Praxis and Gamma).
I use this device because it won't require network and power supply in your electrical cabinet at you home/
These packages get received every 5 seconds from the Envir device on the USB-Comport:

I'am also wondering if more people here on this forum uses Current Cost devices
