Domoticz

Hi, I'm not sure if this is a bug.
Domoticz will show a negative value when my energy production is higher than my consumption, but Dashticz will show a positive value.



Or how can I change this so a negative value is shown?

Domoticz version 4.10717
Dashticz version 3.3.5 beta

Do you know what "1095 watt" relates to?

Can you post the output of your device info ...

http://127.0.0.1:8880/json.htm?type=devices&rid=IDX

^^^ change IP and IDX accordingly.

-1095 watt was my energy usage at that moment, Dashticz showed 1095 while Domoticz showed -1095.
I will post the output when the sun shines

Here is what Dashticz and Domoticz shows:


This is the output: When Usage is 0, Dashticz shows "UsageDeliv" : "1898 Watt", as a positive value, while Domoticz shows a negative value.

Thanks for the output of the device. That url is from Domoticz, not Dashticz.

It is Domoticz that is actually reporting a positive value, look at the end of this line in your Domoticz output: Therefore, they must apply some kind of calculation in the Domoticz tile it self. I.e. on the page. I am sorry, but I do not know how you can apply the same logic to a block in Dashticz. You can in a graph block with custom data (and a calculation) - but that doesn't help you in this case.

Maybe Lokonli will know if this is possible.

Code: Select all

"Data" : "4034842;4393140;29147;93050;0;1898",

Not sure what you mean with "That url is from Domoticz, not Dashticz.".

The first zero is Energy usage, 1898 is the energy delivery at that moment.
For example, currently it is: So only Usage at this moment and no delivery (you can't have both I think, one of both must be 0).
Now Domoticz shows 2208 Watt and Dashticz too.

Understood. So there needs to be a calculation on the last two parts of data returned from your device.
In this case ... correctReading would be -1898. And in this case ... correctReading would be 2208. The problem is where to apply this logic

Code: Select all

var data = device.Data;
var correctReading = data.split(';')[4] - data.split(';')[5];

In this case ... correctReading would be -1898.

Code: Select all

"Data" : "4034842;4393140;29147;93050;0;1898",

We could create a customized Domoticz block for P1 devices.

I'm preparing an update for all Domoticz blocks ...
Then it also will be more easy to fine tune the way Dashticz represents the device data.

Will be fixed in next beta.

Is there any news on this. I am at version 3.3.3.1 master. Was is already solved in the beta?

upgraded to 3.4.5 beta. Value is now in negative but only oneout of 2 values is reported.

I do not completely understand you. Which 2 values do you mean? What should change?

I have a 3-phase setting in house. So it is possible that on phase 1 the return is measured, but on the other phase usage is reported. See this thread. Maybe the question is raised double. Sorry for that.

This means that 248 watt is used and at the same time 124 watt is delivered back. (because of the 3=phase approach)
