Newbie Question about RFXMeter

[Fred2000]

I have a working setup with thermometers and hygrometers. When I added a RFXMeter with a Photo Sensor. Domotiga sees it just fine:

Code: Select all

2012/07/04 08:27:47 [RFXComTRX] Battery       = OK
2012/07/04 08:27:57 [RFXComTRX] < 0A71004D00F00000000589
2012/07/04 08:27:57 [RFXComTRX] Packettype    = RFXMeter
2012/07/04 08:27:57 [RFXComTRX] Subtype       = RFXMeter counter
2012/07/04 08:27:57 [RFXComTRX] Sequence no.  = 77
2012/07/04 08:27:57 [RFXComTRX] ID            = rfxmeter 0xf0
2012/07/04 08:27:57 [RFXComTRX] Counter       = 5
2012/07/04 08:27:57 [RFXComTRX] if RFXPwr     = 0.005 kWh
2012/07/04 08:27:57 [Devices] Device of type 'RFXMETER' with address 'rfxmeter 0x240' and interface 'RFXCom Tranceiver' not found!

1. Why does it send as two different sensors? (240 and 497)

2. What settings do I use in "Devices"? There is no "RFXMeter" under "Device". I have tried some different combinations, but nothing seems to work.

how many sensors PCB's are in the rfxmeter, normally it can hold 3.
in your case i think there are 2 mounted?

Reset counter 2 if the 2nd RFXPulse is not installed. This will stop reporting counter 2

[Fred2000]

Thanks for the quick replies. I have only one sensor in position 0, nothing else. I will try your suggestions.

What settings do I use in Domotiga "Devices"? There is no "RFXMeter" under "Device". I have tried some different combinations, but nothing seems to work.

Choose 'RFXPwr Power' as devicetype.
Or enable 'auto device create' under main settings and let it generate it automatically.
Add it to group 'Energy' to display it's graphs and data.
