Questions about installing and configuring a Fluksometer.

Flukso shows to high power consumption

Hello!
Have since 2 days the Flukso in operation with 3 phases.
Basically works, but now I've found that this way too much indicating by 25-30%.
The total daily consumption is higher by 25-30% than my calibrated electricity meter.

If I, for example, in the live view a 300W lamp switch on a consumption of about 400 watts is displayed.

For a 900 watt micro wave about 1250 watts are displayed.

What can be wrong here or is the Flukso really so inaccurate? Had me at this price expected a little more. So the device is unusable.

2 cables of the same phase with one clamp?

Hello!
I have the following problem:
I have three phases, however, the main cable consists of 2 cables per phase are connected in parallel.
Can I attach a clamp with 2 cable of the same phase at the same time?

So clamp 1 of the 2 cables of first phase
Clamp 2 on the 2 cables of second phase and
Clamp 3 with 2 cable of the third Phase?

Thanks in advance

Cannot connect to FLM to check paramaters.

Cannot get into FLM to check parameter's.
I used to be able too of course a few months back.
I was able to see both on wifi network and if I plugged into cat5 port.
Tried all sorts of ways today. Toggled wifi, lan . used 192.168.255.1 and the addy assigned in my router to the mac addy. 192.168.0.29.
Version 232.........

66 resets shown on Flukso tools page here??
I've given up for today :(

No P1 readings after upgrade flukso device

Received my upgraded flukso today (thanks for the additional cable and fast round-trip!) and reconnected my sensors and connected the cable for the P1 bus.

I'm using 3 50Amp clamps and a (ridiculous expensive) Sensus HRI water sensor. Before receiving a 'smart' meter, I was able to monitor the gas-meter using a simple reed-relais.

But as things had to get 'smart', I'm forced to get gas information using the P1 connector attached to the ISKRA energy meter.

Connected the supplied rj11 cable to the flukso but I didn't see any readings.

The mapping on the fluksometer-v2b page says:

  • green > 5-
  • yellow > 6a
  • black > 6b
  • red > not used

Though, to get things working properly, I had to use to verify the pin / colour mapping and ended up with:

  • (P2) black --> 6a
  • (p3) red --> 5-
  • (p4) green --> not connected
  • (p5) yellow --> 6b

Perhaps a notice to verify the pins and not trust the colours is in order.

An completely different question; is the 'minute' resolution supposed to do anything?. The only (wrong) response I get is the "You are probably not in the same local network as the FLM."

ps: is it normal to get new MAC addresses although the labels on the back didn't change? because of some sane paranoia and not trusting unknown mac addresses, the dhcp server didn't service the flukso...

New user - Issue connecting Fluksometer in wifi network

Hi there,

I can't get the fluksometer to connect to the wifi network, the globe led is off after I configure the network name, password and key. I tested on my phone hotspot and it worked fine.

I'm guessing is an issue with the router to allow the fluksometer to connect to it. Any ideas?

Thanks,
