I’m having trouble with my virtual energy meter on Homey Pro. I have a flow set to reset it to zero at 6 a.m., but instead of resetting, the readings jump to incorrect high values. How can I correctly configure this for a daily reset?

You are using the Flowcard incorrectly. You should put the text `meter_power` there instead of the tag Energy
