Installation

Questions about installing and configuring a Fluksometer.

Flukso for 'old' gas and electricity meter. Possible?

Hello,

I'm interested in the Flukso to measure my gas and electricity usage. I still have an 'old' meter for Gas and electricity. For electricity I own a Schlumberger and for Gas the UGI G2.

I understand that for electricty I use the clams. Clear and easy to install ( I guess) but for gas I have to use:
https://www.flukso.net/content/gas-probe But I don't get how I should install this on my old GAS meter?

And when I upload it to PVoutput, and download the free pvoutput APP, I can see my LIVE gas and electricity usage? Is that right?

If so, I don't understand why don't everyone is using the Flukso :)

How accurate is the flukso to your real usage? Like 3% off, or more?

adjusting the accuracy of the Flukso

Hi all,

Is there anyway of adjusting the accuracy of the reported power usage. In my installation it appears to be out by quit a margin.

Water sensor with flusko v2b

https://www.flukso.net/content/problem-water-sensor-flukso-v2b

Hello,
I've recently setup a new flukso and everything is working fine, except the water sensor.

I seem to be having the same problem as FAFOT in the above post.

The sensor is recognized in the settings page > sensors page.

But I only receive errors on the Dash > Water page:

"Error - No water sensors to display. Please select another sensor type."

Any suggestionts?

Thanks

Are these connectable (gaz and water) meters?

Can anybody give confirmation on whether or not these meters can be connected?

  • Water meter (picture 8)

can't get flm working with Kaifa smart meter over P1 connection

Connected my brand new FLM v2b software 232 to my P1 port of a Kaifa smart meter (Dutch)

- Kaifa smart meter with P1, modelyear 2014, recently installed
- wiring connected to FLM ports 6a, 6b and 5-
- hooked up to router using cable, ping working correctly
- dash keeps telling me: "Error - The call for sensor smart-main experienced a timeout. You are probably not in the same local network as the FLM".
- dash data is blank

- I can connect to and log-in to the FLM, from the lan.
- device sends heartbeat to Devices list at Flukso.net
- Two sensors seem to be registered at the sensors list (smart-main, gas and electricity) at Flukso.net

Checked the forum, but I can't find an answer.

Can anybody tell me what's wrong or where to start looking?

Tx.

Last few syslog lines, hope it's useful:
