Questions about installing and configuring a Fluksometer.

Water Meter

Hi All

I just added a water meter to my flukso on port 3 as a pulse input. The meter gives a pulse from a reed relay at 1 pulse equals 10 litres, so I set the constant to 10.

The graph on the flukso dash looks ok but when the water stops flowing the graph line does not go to zero it just sits at its last pulse reading. I guess water works differently to other sampling as a valve can fully close very quickly taking you from max flow to no flow so there is no gradual change in pulses to get you down to zero as there is with power for example.

Do i need to look at a pull up/down resistor to zero the reading or do I need to drive a schmitt trigger with the reed relay pulse to produce something more akin to an S0 pulse output whcih the flukso seems to have no trouble with (like my pulse kwhr meters)?

Reading Smart Meter P1 port with FLM03E

I’ve been using the Flukso FLM03E for a while now with current clamps and reed sensors for water and gas. This is working fine, but I was wondering if anyone has succeeded in connecting their Flukso FLM03E port 7 to the P1 port of a smart meter (Dutch, Belgian or other)?
Should we connect the Data_RxD (pin 5) and Data_GND (pin 3) to terminals a & b of the FLM03E port 7, with 5V on the Data_RTS (pin 2)?
On the other side, the manual indicates that the firmware doesn’t support this yet: https://www.flukso.net/files/docs/en/fluksometer.html#ports

Google shows some references of connecting the FLM02B to a P1 port, but nowhere a reference of the FLM03E.
Has anyone been able to make this work on an FLM03E? If so, how?

Experiences or feedback more than welcome!

Where's Bart?

Does anyone know where Bart is, he does not respond in the forum and Email, I hope nothing serious has happened, because then there is no one left to solve server problems.
Or is he on vacation again.

Status of Flukso Kubes

Are Kubes already posible to be sold via shop?
Or is it posible to make your own kubes?
