Hello
Im trying to program a emontx v3.2.
My problem is when i use sketch for rfm/3.2 3phase voltage i dont get the data in emoncms. i can see that i get a warning in emonhub log.
if i try other sketch for 3.4 i get compile error.
I tested platformio but i did get this to work. i use arduino ide to program.
any help or guides are welcome as im a newbe.
I am sorry you have a problem, but the first rule is you must give us enough information to be able to help you.
OK, so you have a problem, but how does that help us to know what your problem is?
(Take a look at the first few points on the FAQ page when you have a moment to spare.)
What IS the warning?
My first guess - and given what you have written, it is only a guess: Have you got the correct data format defined in emonhub.conf?
I do not, cannot, nor will not support platformio. I too use only the official Arduino IDE.
Did you set up your Arduino IDE according to the page in the ‘Learn’ section - including all the libraries you require?
Is this the sketch you are using:

my problem is that i dont get the input in emonpi.
My guess was correct. These two lines do in fact tell you all - when you know the secrets.
NEW FRAME : 10 tells me that your V3.2 is NodeID=10
data length: 24 is not valid for ... tells me that the entry in emonhub.conf does not match the data that your sketch is sending.
Now - the first problem, you have a sketch that will not give you the correct values for a 3-phase system. The sketch you have is only for a single phase UK mains supply.
The sketch you want is NOT GitHub - openenergymonitor/emontx-3phase: emonTx 'approximate' 3-phase firmware - that will not work on your V3.2, the sketch you need appears to have been deleted from GitHub.
So here it is:
emonTxV3_3Phase_Voltage.ino (23.4 KB)
Note line 26. You must have the RFµ library for your V3.2
All the instructions to set up and calibrate the sketch are in the comments at the beginning.
When you get that working, you need to edit the entry in emonhub.conf. You can do this in your web browser from emonCMS.
Go down to the block that looks like this:
[[10]]
nodename = emontx1
[[[rx]]]
names = power1, power2, power3, power4, vrms, temp1, temp2, temp3, temp4, temp5, temp6, pulse
datacodes = h,h,h,h,h,h,h,h,h,h,h,L
scales = 1,1,1,1,0.01,0.01,0.01,0.01,0.01,0.01,0.01,1
units = W,W,W,W,V,C,C,C,C,C,C,p
This is for Node 10
You need to change it to match the data structure in line 170, so change it to
[[10]]
nodename = emontxV3.2
[[[rx]]]
names = power1, power2, power3, power4, vrms
datacodes = h,h,h,h,h
scales = 1,1,1,1,0.01
units = W,W,W,W,V
When posting code, put three backticks ``` only a line before the code, and another 3 only on a line after the code.

tnx for the sketch.
i just found out that emonhub setup and i have now the inputs.
tnx for your tips and guide. 
do you have a sketch that also support temp onewire?
Not for the V3.2, but it should be possible to add it to that 3-phase sketch. You will need to take the temperature measurement parts out of the sketch you originally used and merge them into the 3-phase sketch.

im trying to get this sketch with temp. ds1820 one wire.
anyone that can guide or show me where to input code for one wire. i tryed but compile failed and it seems like im not understand it 100%.
Thinking further about your problem, it might be easier for you to use the modern 3-phase PLL sketch. Although this does incorporate temperature measurement, only one temperature sensor may be used, and it will not work with the RFM12B radio that your emonTx V3.2 uses.
The code that drives the RFM69CW is a separate file, and I have an equivalent file for the RFM12B radio. I have not tested it with the 3-phase sketch, I might be able to do that for you in the next few days. If you think the sketch will be useful to you, I will do that, but you must wait for a few days until I have the time to do it. Please let me know if you would like me to do that.
Hello Robert
tnx for your good support.
It would be nice if you had time to do it. I think it will help me a lot. then at the same time I can learn from what you change in the sketch.
I want to test esp connected serial. maybe i can change the hardware to work with esp and don’t need rfm12b.
If you want to use the ESP8266, then the radio is disabled automatically when the option for the ESP8266 is selected, so you can use that sketch without modification.
There is also an option to set the I/O pin assignments for the emonTx V3.2. Be sure to download and read the PDF file that explains all the settings.
