Need some advice on how to tune this script or other settings in Domoticz so I can get the data I want

Short on the setup ...
Watermeter with a pulse output ( 1 P pr 10 L )
Fibaro FGBS-001 Universal Binary Sensor, for the input ..
Fresh Ubuntu server install on a ASUS J1800I-C motherboard...
Been running Domoticz on a PI since 2015 before ...

Scrip below are basically the same as posted http://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopic ... oor#p22721, was simple enugh for me to understand ....

It does work, sort of, but I can't get the numbers I want, as you can see it says 1000L, and not ?? more like 100 or 250 ...
The 1,34m3 are probably correct...
As for the log ... nothing shows up just 0L
The divider inside setup are sett at 1 ... I have tried other settings, but then the m3 are way off ...

Probably just a simple typo somwhere, but are not good at scrips

-- Parse and update the countvalue
   foo, snumber = sContents:match("([^,]+)|([^,]+)")
   local countvalue = snumber + 0.01
   local newline = foo .. "|" .. string.format("%.3f", tostring(countvalue))

-- Update virtual counter device
   ts = virtualcounter_idx .. "|0|" .. string.format("%.3f", tostring(countvalue))
   commandArray['UpdateDevice'] = ts

-- Write back new counter value
   local file = io.open(thisfilename, "r+")
   file:write(newline)
   file:close()




end

return commandArray

Got it working

Just made another costum dummy sensor, an incremental counter, just a counter...
Decided to go for liter, not m3.. made all the math a bit simpler ..
