Improvements on dash so make data more usefull

Hi all,

i would like to do some suggestions on the dash, i am a few weeks user of the system and actually missing out quite some info that is somewhere in there

the minute and hour graphs work ok for me.
the Day however is not really usefull, at least if i look at a day i want to see today, not the past 24 hours, so the day starts at 00:00h and ends 23:59:59 or something the like.
This would give a clear overview at all times during the day of the performance of the Solar PV and the the amount of energy that is used.
Now with the 24 Hour day i also see during the day a part of what is used yesterday, so i have to wait until midnight to see the days performance in detail.
an addition of a calendar in the day view would be a must to be able to select a day where you want to see the details from to compare for instance monday of last week to monday of this week in performance.

The monthly overview is usefull, but not with a line chart, this should be converted to bar graphs with a bar for each sensor per day, where you can select wich sensors you want to compare or have visible in the graph.

i am not using it long enough to see data in the yearly overview yet so i cannot comment on that.

i would be happy to invest some time to create a mockup to explain what i mean by the above

if this is not possible is there a way that i can connect to the Dash database so i can get my detailed data out of it so i can create my own reporting, either by export on request to .csv or by a webservice?
Maybe a sort of online query designer with an option to save some favorite query's and chose some chart types

Kind regards,
Peter Joris

Ability to use as a RS485 to wifi adaptor

It would be an excellent feature if an addition piece of software/driver etc could be made to access the fluksometer to use it as a RS485 to wifi adaptor.
We could then use the fluksometer RS485 input to link to our inverters to retrieve data etc.

The next step maybe an inbuilt feature allowing connection to common inverters like Aurora, SMA etc to directly import generation stats

USB port with 3G dongle support

Would be perfect for those that don't have or are out range of Wifi networks. Also a great backup if the fixed line has gone down. Have a look at Dovado for inspiration.
