Hello Haffle,
I’ve same problem.
Please could you share your setting on “Advvanced developer settings” and in your config files on emopi ?

Thank you for helping me

What problem, a Shelly trying to talk to the emonPi MQTT broker?

#3

I’m trying to connect a Shelly HT to EmonCMS …but I’m not able… could you help me ?

#4

I have moved this to a new Topic.

What have you tried?

I am not familiar with the Shelly data output format to MQTT. It needs to publish to a Topic something like emon/shelly1

You will need something to read the MQTT data and see what it is trying to send.

BTW did you do a search??? How to integrate Shelly 3EM in Emoncms local?

Thank you for helping me.

shelly output on MQTT is :

shellies/HT1/sensor/temperature 15.75
shellies/HT1/sensor/humidity 42.5
shellies/HT1/sensor/battery 100
shellies/HT1/sensor/ext_power false
shellies/HT1/sensor/error 0
shellies/HT1/sensor/act_reasons [“button”]

Only “HT1” could be change.

On Emoncms config I have try to add

    # emon/emontx/power1 format - use with Emoncms MQTT input
    # http://github.com/emoncms/emoncms/blob/master/docs/RaspberryPi/MQTT.md
    nodevar_format_enable = 1
    nodevar_format_topic = shellies/

but it is not working…

I’m going to read tread about shelly 3M

OK, I understand that the right way is to use nodered.

thanks

This is the emonhub config, not the emoncms.

Yes it is the easiest way to translate the Topic name (just use a set node and a bit of JSONATA)

With right app was easy ! … now it works. Here how I setup node-red

Did you send direct from the Shelly via the mqtt setting to node red or have to use an MQTT server then on to node red?
