Hello!
Is it possible, to connect 4 S0 counters as input for my Fluskometer ?
(3 inputs for the 3 lines + 1 from my solar generation). Additional quesition: Can anybody give me some help about this configuration - if possible?
Thanks!
Regards

In the sensors config screen on the FLM02b (connect via lan cable directly, like mentioned in the manual) you can change input 2 and 3 to analogue or pulse. Only input 1 is fixed for analogue input.
So together with the other inputs 4 and 5 you have 4 SO in total, just like you wanted ;-)
Hi!
Thanks for your help!
Just one question about the S0 counters: Do I have to use bi-directional or uni-directional counters ? Is tehre somewhere a describtion available thate show how to configure a system with 4 S0 counters and a solar generation ?
Thanks for your help!

I don't have such a installation, but if every sensor you configure in the FLM is in the electrical part, you shall see all 4 sensors in the same graphic and each sensor is in a different colour.
What do you mean with a bi-directional counter ? One that detects the current flow in both directions i think. It's depend where you put those SO counters for the 3 fase. If you put them directly after your main circuit breaker then you can measure consumption and generation, so that is bi-directional. It depends of what result you want in your graphic. Separate graphics for just consumption of your electrical equipments, here you have to put those 3 SO counters just before the different circuits for your house where the solar is not connected from. The solar with its own circuit breaker must than be connected directly after the main circuit breaker. All 4 SO counters are then uni-directional of course.
Sorry that a don't have a schema or drawing for you right now. Perhaps is there a other fluksonian who can help here ?
For a proper setup in the presence of a PV installation, please refer to this and this forum post. There's no difference between clamps or DIN-rail meters when it comes to the exact installation location in the fuse box. In short: the energy flow should be unidirectional when using DIN-rail meters (or clamps).
Many thanks for your help!
I've just read the manual and tried to find out if (and how) I can configure the pulse (Imp / Wh) send from by counter... I looks for me, that this is somehow configurable, is this right? Can anybody please give me a short hint, how I can configure the Flusko to work together with a S0 counter sending i.e. 100Imp/kWh ?
Many thanks!

Just point your browser to the local sensor configuration page and change the "Current clamp ports" value to 1. You'll then notice that sensors 2 and 3 will now report 'pulse' as their class. Please note that you need an FLM02B for this. The A version cannot dynamically change its port functions.
For 100Imp/kwh, you set the meter-constante to 10.
For 1000Imp/kwh, you set the meter-constante to 1.
For 2000Imp/kwh, you set the meter-constante to 0,5.
The default value for 1 puls is 1watt/h for electricity and 1liter for gas and water.
