Installation

Questions about installing and configuring a Fluksometer.

elster PR6 water meter replaced after 4 years (battery dead) and no pulse readings anymore

Flukso FLM02 250 with following 3 phase readings (1-2-3) lost readings of water meter some weeks ago.
Imbedded battery was dead after 4 years of service (as indicated by vendor).
I ordered a new one in the UK with a battery life (guaranteed!) of 7 years. No readings.
Checked the 25 meter connection (pair) cable ==> OK (measuring 9V left side = 9V right side.
Checked + - <==> - + (yellow/black, CH1P/GRND) <==> black/yellow (GRND/YELLOW) ==> no readings.
I mean I inverted the pair to check if + - is connected on the right sub port.
I used yellow and black (ground). Is this correct?
Checked log and tx buffer ==> xxxxxxx3925 (phase 1) logged and OK (2 and 3 are part of one 3 phase group
Checked log and tx buffer ==> xxxxxxx3aa6 (port 4) NOT logged and NOK while water is flowing and pair cable
connected.
Checked log and tx buffer ==> xxxxxxx3eed (port 5) NOT logged and NOK while water is flowing and pair cable
connected
I have only one water meter connected to port 5 + -.; 4 + - is a "spare" port.
I saved the sensors several times with enable disable.

Can't see any issue on the log/mptx.
I browsed the forum several times. Can't find anything.
Did I miss a setting? What should I do with the available 32 hex sensor ids (xxxxxxxx3ee8)? disable or delete them?
Flukso FLM is 8 years old, new Elster PR6 is a few days.
Any help appreciated

Loss of internet = no readings

When my internet drops out like it has been this past few weeks im not getting any backlog data added to my graph.
Is this normal?
I know when the flukso server is down it all gets sent when the server comes back online if you don't turn the flukso off.

FLM03E not detecting voltage correctly

Hi all,

I have just set up my FLM03E and I'm not seeing the correct Vrms value. I'm in Australia and my trusty multimeter tells me I have 240v on the dot at the outlet. I am not using the supplied power pack since it's Euro plug *however* I am using a 1000ma 240VAC in 9VAC out transformer-style Australian plug pack. Would this be affecting the reading? Is there truly something special about the provided plug pack?

Cheers

Old unused sensor ID information remains. How to remove, help required

A couple of years ago I started using a Flukso instalation to monitor my power generation and consumption.
At first I installed 4 sensors but have since reduced this to just 2 (grid and solar) and removed the ones not used.
My question is, how do I remove the sensor information of the two not used from my profile ? The unused ones confuse the situation when I am doing any re-configuring e.g for export of data to pvoutput.

It appears that flukso still remembers the sensor tokens and doesn't drop it off even though they have been long disconnected.
I tried creating another account on flukso but the information was somehow carried over to the new account.

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Cheers

Clamps 2 & 3 no reading anymore.

Hi,

I get the following error when updating my Flukso.

Saving sensor parameters: ......
Committing changes: true
Syncing configuration: gh 255 2 .. ok
Hardware check (major: 255, minor: 2) .. nok
Error. Major version does not match.
Use -f to override this check at your own peril.
Restarting the Flukso daemon: ok

Any idea?
Thanks.
