Installation

Questions about installing and configuring a Fluksometer.

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.

Measuring Voltage

Anyone know if there is a way to measure AC voltage using a current clamp and have it show on the Flukso graph?

Android App for fluksometer

There is an android app published for fluksometer.
App can show realtime usage as well as usage for last 24 hours week and a last month if they are reported to flukso.net
For the moment only paid version is available http://goo.gl/peu9n
Ads supported one would be out if I have some time after new year holidays.
Any suggestions on new features are welcome.
