Re: ZonOpToon alternative

Het kan zijn dat de led gewoon te zwak is om gedetecteerd te worden of de led pulse te kort duurt om voor de meteradapter op te merken als een puls. Gezien het met S0 ook niet werkt denk ik het laatste (te kort dus). true yes that is my thoughts to, (led being to soft/weak) .. so I tried to use a d...

Re: ZonOpToon alternative

the cable has no interruptions .. (1:1 of left to right ..) and I am guessing the light sensor is smart enough to "short" .. 2-4 and 1 itself .. (simulair as the drawing only this logic will be in the "sensor" .. What do you mean short itself? 2-4 and 1 must be always connected ...

Re: ZonOpToon alternative

One thing at a time.. With the old sensor. Does that sensor blue led light up when you plug the meteradapter back in to 230v? That blue led should fade in and fade out. Until the light sensor in the same sensor detects light it will keep doing so. The light sensor will detect blue light (reflected ...

Re: ZonOpToon alternative

@thehogNL Thats why i wrote the manual .. few posts back .. it is not difficult or "brainsurgery" .. but i am starting to 2nd guess what part is broken .. if its a simple "old style' sensor .. the light should turn of .. and i would start seeing readings .. same goes for the S0 when I...

Re: ZonOpToon alternative

I really don't understand what you are doing wrong. Normally it isn't that hard to get this working. This setup works for more people and they just went to kwhmeter.nl to buy a proper meter (only like 20 euro's). The S0 method (with the modified 3.5mm jack) or the old style led sensor method is for...

Re: ZonOpToon alternative

Like I "started" .. "het kwartje is gevallen" .. I get it now .. s0 - and s0 + = just a "short" aka button being pressed ever time "watt" is produced .. right so either polarity should work .. reversing both cables would not matter .. I replaced the whole uni...

Re: ZonOpToon alternative

Ok so the s0 is broken on the first unit :-) I guess :roll: :D might be me .. who dun it .. ... pulse... every time "watt" is produced . To be exact. Your PV doesn't produce watt. It produces joules which also can be calculated as watthour (3600 J is 1 watthour). Watt is for an amount ove...

Re: ZonOpToon alternative

S0 + and - does not make a different. It is just connection what is closed on and off (so that's ...

Re: ZonOpToon alternative

Did you remove and reseat the meteradapter after you fixed the sensor cable? The green led on the meteradapter next to the yellow icon will first start green, and then it must detect the s0 pulses. Then it will pulse anytime a s0 pulse is detected. With 2000imp/kwh it will pulse with a few seconds ...
