Devolo Metering Plug MT02792 Topic is solved

Hi there ,
the metering plug 2792 is the "V2" version of the older plug called 2646. The XML file is nearly the same, the two device are working fine .
The only sad thing is the missing energy report on the new device .
The OZW-Panel shows the Energy report , but domoticz is not detecting it .

Any suggestions how to fix this ?

Regards
Wolfgang

Did you enable accept new hardware under the settings ?

[Wolfgang]

Yes , I was activating "Allow New Devices for 5 Minutes " on domoticz and
plugged the metering plug off the socket and on again , but the Energy Value is still missing,,,

Maybe 5 minutes is to short and you get a value once an hour, try leaving it on
another thing could be that it does not report this value automatically and you need to enable polling for this device
but another thing could be that you need to put the controller in a certain group of the node to be able to receive these reports
Another thing could be that you need to 'configure' the node , like parameter 1 and 2

I configured the plug to send reports every 6 minutes ( minimm setting ) but there is no additional device detected .
I am wondering if there is a conflict because the energy value is once on the ozw panel seen as energy with the unit W (active power) and the same energy value with the unit VA ( apparent / reactive power )

Are the values of "W" and "kWh" updated in the ozw panel ? Have they been updated once ?
kVAh was not implemented yet... i just made a small patch in the latest beta version, could you try this version? (enable accept new devices first)

[Wolfgang]

the values are updated on the owz panel , the power values and the energy values are calculated in the right way , they are all plausible.
thank you gizmocuz for updating domoticz , i will try this with the latest beta ...
i will report back ...

[Wolfgang]

hi gizmocuz,

updated the release version to the latest beta , domoticz restarted after completion , manually set domoticz to "new devices allowed for 5 minutes" and the energy values are shown in domoticz ... its working fine now
thank you !

Great! thanks for the feedback!
