the energy button in the homey dashboard DOES show the historical data ![]()
but only from 15:00 today
Yep. See my original post:
HomeWizard v3.3.25 - Homey pro E23: 12.2.1
It really is a hit and miss. Very strange. Yes sorry Willem, rough long day at work so missed that. Think something goes wrong with the grafana (?) cluster. ![]()
Yet it works ok on older homey pro 2016-2019 like @Peter_Kawa.
So then it is not a bug issue in my app as I cant make/do a difference in hardware. So my gut feeling makes me think its a firmware issue.
the what cluster ?? ![]()
No worries, no need to apologize, the sun is down and no results from the panels anyway… So I’ll start the laundry and the dishes by hand ![]()
Lol well I dont know the exact magic behind it but the graph tool(solution) seems going wrong on some metrics on a Homey Pro 2023. As it seems ok on the Homey pro 2019.
Will that break my flow as well ??
No, your flow should not be affected by insights. As long as the value still changes on the device this must work. Insight should also take that value and plot it, but that seems to me be broken in the last homey firmware for pro 2023.
Hi,
For the energy tab in homey, the energy meter needs a little change to indicate what goes in and out, please see Homey Energy — Public Beta Megathread - #212 by DaneedeKruyff
That’s a response to my original problem:
Home you can make that change…
Sorry your question is not clear. The P1 already has totals import and export T1 & T2. And the current watts go negative when returning to grid. So am a but clueless what is wrong there?
It’s not about the p1, but about the kWh meter. The energy dashboard is marking it as top user in my house because the energy returned through the meter is not taken into account.
I asked about that in the energy dashboard thread and they said the developer needs to indicate the ‘direction’, so which counter indicated in and which out.
Hope this clarifies.
Hi @Jeroen_Tebbens,
it was my suggestion to check if these new settings are defined:
"energy": {
"cumulative": true,
"cumulativeImportedCapability": "meter_power.imported",
"cumulativeExportedCapability": "meter_power.exported"
}
That is for P1, yes that is set in my code. Robin Bolscher already asked me a few weeks ago to add.
Here:
"energy": {
"cumulative": true,
"cumulativeImportedCapability": "meter_power.consumed",
"cumulativeExportedCapability": "meter_power.returned"
},
I have set that to ‘other’ as nothing in that list matches what’s behind it. Does it matter?
Is that set for the kWh meter devices as well? (The stand alone meter, not talking about the p1, that is fine)
It does, if it is production type it must be Solar/Zonnepanelen (return). If it is anything else it is considered consumption based. That socket type adjusts the setting if what is measured consumption or return and I flag it in such way.
If I would that, that would make the kwh meter and P1 and it will add up to your P1 and I get about 1500 users complaining I broke their kwh meter in their Homey. I can’t add those 2 lines as they rely on cumulative = true (which is only valid for a P1 as main tracker of your energy usage overall). So hence I only added these upon request of Homey developer to add to P1, nothing else. If this must be added to kwh in some way fine but I need to read/understand in documentation or SDK that is required. Until then I wont touch it with the risk of breaking other peoples use.
Ok, I’ve changed it to a solar panel, but now it shows up as a solar panel in the energy dashboard, which isn’t true.
But never mind, I feel that you are a bit annoyed, which was not my intention, I just wanted to see if there was a solution. Sorry for that.
I’ll just exclude it from the energy dashboard, no worries and have a great weekend. You are doing great, thanks again.
Annoyed, not yet. But it isn’t easy to understand if I only get blips of the problem or have no understanding of the use case. Homey/Athom launched a new beta/test/experimental feature and I need to understand out of the blue how it works. I’ve been asked to add extra code for this in October and that would be enough. This app has nearly 15k installs and hate to break this over a new feature that is still under testing.
You say you set it to other because nothing is proper flag behind. Then what is behind it then? I am hinted to apply code for direction of energy. This is about consumption/use or production/solar right? So please give me a clear/proper understanding rather than throw me snippet of text, link to a topic and expect me to understand what the problem is.
If the developers of the Homey Energy can pinpoint me to that the kwh need those settings, fine I add them. But that was not the case end Oct. It was only required for the P1, so I did.
My 2cents
Test/beta
v3.3.26
