Installation

Questions about installing and configuring a Fluksometer.

Sensor Arexx Pro-88msn

I use the Pro-88msn sensor to measure my battery voltage. I measure 1.2 volts with a voltage divider at the connection box JB-T1. The measured value jumps extremely up and down. I get within a few seconds readings between 1.188 to 1.202 volts. The graphic curve moves zigzag. The normal multi meter measure exact 1.200 volts.

Is there an error in the connection box?

Can anybody help?

Thanks

I cannot read sensors data

Hi,

I cannot get valid data from the Flukso device with curl.

The wan IP address is 192.168.1.2. I have set up an Ad-hoc wifi network with my laptop. Firewall rule is adapted, and I can see the homepage of the Flukso device via WAN from my laptop.
Json/REST API is enabled in the web configuration panel.

The first sensor is connected to the sensor1 slot with a clamp measuring a running 230v device. (one phase)

When I try to get data from Flukso device via curl from my laptop, I can see the following response :
Command :

  1. curl -v "http://192.168.1.2:8080/sensor/e2e0271b0836aa95ddf101887a9e81e4?version=1.0&interval=minute&unit=watt"

I observed "* Leftovers after chunking: 5 bytes", but I don't have any idea to identify the root cause of the problem.

Can you help me ?
Does anyone observed this issue before ?

Thanks,

Electricity Consumption

As I bought the sensors for Water and Gas, without checking if they could be used on my meters in Denmark, I now wonder if I can use the water sensor on the nummer 4 clam on the Flusometer, as a light sensor. My elektricity meter is a Kamstrup 382 DIN witch have a lightning pulse to show the consumption

Using DIN rail energy meter

While going through the different forum topics I see a lot of people having issues with 3phase networks without N.

Using the clamps works fine as long as 1 wire is consistently used as N, but most people have some device (cooker) connected as 3 phases or the load is balanced over the 3 phases rather than 2+N

While googling I found these ABB meters ODIN OD4165 and OD4110 that seem to measure the consumption of 3 phases correctly and seem to have pulse output. Would it be possible for me to install one of these and connect it to the Flukso.
Here is a link to the ABB devices http://www05.abb.com/global/scot/scot349.nsf/veritydisplay/0a4b318e8e4b1be8c1257567004961e3/$file/2cmc480022c0002_b_en_electricity_meters__din-rail_mounted.pdf

Are there any alternatives/similar devices to these ABB meters that would do the trick. I do like the idea of the device being a DIN rail device, keeps it very organised and clean.

Thanks

Elster BK-G4M Positioning sensor

Hi,
I'm trying to install sensor on gas meter BK-G4M but can't figure out what is the right position. Meter looks exactly like the one mentioned in the shop (BK-G4) but with letter M on it too.
Sensor is working , I can simulate pulses with magnet . But I can't install the sensor on the meter to get any readings. Any suggestions ?
thanks a lot
