Problems with flukso v2

Hi,

I have some trouble with my flukso v2.

  • Sometimes flkusko forgets his wlan settings an tries to connect to a wlan named "zwaluw".
  • Sometimes the wlan connection is up and the "last heartbeat" on flukso.net is up to date, but no data can be seen on flukso.net. By accessing the local json interface I get an empty page. Syslog looks quite good, the only error I see is "daemon.warn avahi-daemon[928]: Failed to initialize inotify: Function not implemented", perhaps this is normal?
  • Firmware update is not working; flukso.net shows version 210, but hitting the upgrade button has no effect.

Can somebody help? What could I do to track the problem down?

Best regards
Ansgar

Get the maximum power

Is it possible to get the maximum power during an interval somehow?

I can now get the minute values via an API call, but could I get the maximum (and minimum) values within each minute also?

Thanks,

Cat /dev/ttyS0 returns no value

Hi all,
I'm trying to get my fluksoV2 to send out snmp data to my monitoring system by following this great article of Ben Ronsse: http://oniriabe.dyndns.org:1111/intranet/index.php/weetjes/linux/208-flukso

However when I executed the command cat /dev/ttyS0 as described in the blog I get just an empty screen with no output.
I've already restarted the daemon but that did not make any difference.
If I run logread | grep pulse I get the info but this is originated from the syslog so not really usefull.

Printscreen:
root@flukso-1b6e80:~# /etc/init.d/flukso restart
Daemon returned 0 as return value.
Daemon returned 0 as return value.
root@flukso-1b6e80:~# cat /dev/ttyS0

All help is welcome.

Thanks in advance.

I'm using a Flukso V2 with firmware 216.

Gas and Water meter sensor needed

I'm looking for "plug and Play" sensors for the following instruments:

Natural Gas Flow meter:
Type: Schlumberger G4
Build: 1989

Water Flow meter:
Type: Actaris

All see attached photo's.

After checking with a simple compass I noticed that there are no magnets in the meters available.
So the reed sensors are of no use for me :-(

On the Gas meter I found a little "looking glass" opening at the left bottom.
Inside of the meter there is a black & white striped disc.
So an opto sensor could be a solution.
Also on the spot of the most right red digit there is a silver patch on the 0 position.

All solutions are welcome.

You are probably not in the same local network as the FLM.

I just installed my FLM, but I get these error messages when visiting the dash (Mac OSX 10.8 Google Chrome):

Error - The call for sensor Gas experienced a timeout. You are probably not in the same local network as the FLM.
Error - The call for sensor Water experienced a timeout. You are probably not in the same local network as the FLM.

Same error for the electrical sensors.

Any help is appreciated.
