Installation

Questions about installing and configuring a Fluksometer.

Connecting using the infrared flashing LED

My Smart meter "i-credit 500 PRI", has an 3200 impulse/kWh flashing infared LED.

Would a device something like hhhh://phk.freebsd.dk/Eldims/
{replace the "hhhh" with "http", as your spam filter didn’t like it?}
work to detect the flashes and convert these into usable pulses. (i think the pulses are about 30ms). (how clean does the signal need to be)? is a sketchy sign wave ok, or does it need to have proper digital shape?

This would then show 100% correct energy usage, and you could just stick it onto the meter?

Graph keeps showing some power when Flukso is not connected...

Hello everybody!

I see some people complaining that their FluksoMeter does not always update the site, but here I have the opposite problem ;)

I wanted to have a clean install of the box, so yesterday I installed an additional power plug close to the device.
To work safely, I switched off the main power line for a couple of hours: so no power, no network, no FluksoMeter at all; but still the graph reports 109 Watts for the whole period... (see attached)

Any explanation?

Share usage to a non-flukso-member

Hello,

is there any way to share your usage to a non-flukso-member? I want someone else to view the usage of my flukso, without the need of logging in etc.

Thanks

3 wire 3 phase monitor with two or three CT's?

Hi, have Just installed my flukso v2, it's been running for about 24 hours now :

Second major question,

System is as described below, when I first setup I selected 3 phase in the sensor setup, with a reduced voltage as suggested by Bart in another post. However this yielded very high 10kw load for a consumer that I know is rated at 4kva.

When I spilt the three phases out I see approximately correct wattages per phase

This lead me to do a bit of reading around and I came across this document
