Questions about installing and configuring a Fluksometer.

Simple solution to minute view -

Hey, I have long used a flukso on a holiday house I own, that in a few years will become my primary residence. Fantastic device! (nice house too!).

Though I have often struggled with the minute live view. I read around and understood it to be related to newer security settings when browsers see a mixture of element types on the same page. Sure there are work around's, but I always found that to be a pain as everything would whine at you about being less secure - which ... is true anyways.

So I just downloaded a different browser - Midori.

Its not great - and I would NEVER use it for *anything* else. But now I have the Flukso page as its home page and the minute view works just fine.

I'm sure other similar lightweight browsers would do the trick. I cant be bothered looking for one as this is doing what I intended for it to do. Previously I just viewed it on the iPhone or iPad.

Figured this info might help others out there to find a quick fix for the Minute view issue. Have fun!

gas probe on actaris g6

does anyone know where to place the gas probe on an actaris g6 gas meter?
i can't find where to place it.
or is it impossible to use the gas probe and need to use the refective 0 and a light sensor?

How to install the current clamp?

Hi all,

I'm thinking about buying me a FLM to monitor our electricity usage. I would like to do the installation of the current clamp myself so I opened up the fuse box to check what clamps I need to order and how easy it can be installed.
There is one cable going from the electricity metering device into the fuse box, on the top right corner, see: https://www.dropbox.com/s/o08vh6amtmjja0z/IMAG0907.jpg?dl=0

This cable consist of one brown, one blue and two black lines.

I guess we are talking about 3 phases here, correct?
So I would need 3 clamps and attach them to the black and brown lines?

Thanks for your help!

config ?

Finished the installation today of the Flukso V2.
Water sensor : installed without problems on a Elster V100
Gas sensor : installed with some 'problems' on a Elster BK-G6, had to file off the reedsensor housing top (by hand - don't use powertools) before there was a reliable magnetic contact between the internal magnet and the reedsensor.
Electric (3x220V) : first on the wrong foot by a early picture in the forum of a version 1 installation :-( but after some RTFM .... got it working.

Some things I'm not sure of :
- the calibration of the sensors
- in the syslog there is only one electric sensor reporting, could be normal if I read the manual wright, but to be sure is this correct ? (3 sensor - 3 phase setup)

Time of Flukso site incorrect

Is it possible to get the time displayed on the site for readings to be correct?
Its off by a good few hours.

The region in user settings is Johannesburg which is correct for the location (South Africa).

The times are off by a few hours though.
I don't have access to the Flukso remotely till i head back to South Africa though, so if I need to change it there will need to wait.
