if(in && power < 78) power = 0;
else if(in) power *= 1.09;
First part resets power to 0W if it is consumption and below 78W
Second part increases consumption power by 9% only.
If(power <78) power =0;if(out) power *= 1.09;
This resets either consumption or generation to 0W if it is below 0W, then it will increase any generation by 9%
I attempt to measure the power consumption of my PC at work with Fluksometer. For this I removed the shield on the power cable and attached a clamp to one of the wires. I set up a local server on my PC and connect to the Fluksometer through ethernet port. However, even after couple of days I haven't received any data. Even trying to get real time from a sensor I got the following output.
Anyone has any idea? Is it possible to measure a PC power consumption with Fluksometer?

Love the device, finally getting a grip on my power and gas consumption. But there are a few things I think that can be improved:
- The webinterface shows all kind of settings, but I can not find where to change (for example) the reporting mode mentioned in paragraph 2.1.2 of the manual. To me, it looks like the manual is for another version of the Fluksometer, it also mentions a pushbutton I don't have. I have a Fluksometer v2b (FLM02b).
- The device reports back to flukso.net in minute intervals, but when I get the data local, I can only get the readings per second. For a complete minute I have to ask twice, twenty seconds apart. Why doen't the Fluksometer report per minute local ? It's supposed to cache some data for when the internet connection fails, the data should be there.
if I now want to have the minute-data there are two choices:
- grab the data from api.flukso.net, retention two days
- grab the data per second local, and calculate the minute data myself
- The forum contains a treasure of information. Perhaps the most valuable parts can be put in a Wiki. That way you provide some way of authority.
- My home is equipped with a Dutch Smart meter with a P1 connector, and my Fluksometer v2b came with a cable. The product page in the shop tells you how to connect te cable, but is just the other way around, as mentioned in the forum.
- Somehow when you connect a Smart meter you don't have to configure the sensors. I'm not sure wheter you have to save that configuration, it works flawless now. This took me a few tries.
- Retreiving data from api.flukso.net requires a token, a specific token per senor or a account-level token. Where do I find that account level token ?
- Retreiving data from api.flukso.net works fine, perhaps you could mention the retention time of each resolution. That is mentioned somewhere in the forums.

Including optical sensor (for pulse reading, not using clamps) and gas probe. My new smart meter does not cater for the gas readings and could be connected via a serial connection so I have no use for the Flukso anymore.
Hi
I am struggling for many hours to read the data from my Flukso V2B meter. I have 2 pulse inputs from 2 pulse meters: LXEM145 and LXEM180. The first is for Solar Production and the second for Gross House Usage.
I setup the Flukso as is written in the manual. Set current clamp ports to 1(disabled) and enabled only two pulse sensors ports number 2 and 3. Everything is fine with connection to the Flukso site, and my home network too, but when I'm looking at the dashboard - nothing shows and the usual message is there: Error - The call for sensor smart-main experienced a timeout. You are probably not in the same local network as the FLM.
My Flukso has uptime of 16 hours, still no data. I am not an electrician but when I checked the sensors, they are connected with the right polarity to the switches. Both of the pulse meters are new and the led on each is blinking. When checking with voltmeter the sensors shows 3.3 volts but as I read somewhere this voltage is from the Flukso.
When trying to check one of the sensors in the browser I am getting empty white screen (not timeout): https://api.flukso.net/sensor/74b2e66493631ff79ff5503ee7415a67?interval=...
The lights on the Flukso are on including the Globe light.
Please help. Tx
