Hi Julio!
I may be able to point you in the right direction. I have a RasPi device that I am rebuilding (SD card went corrupt) that monitors my water usage and I don’t have access to all of the info you requested.
Like your setup I see only the cumulative value with my water meter (in gallons). But my setup only grabs and logs data once per minute.
I did this (see image below) to get the incremental values (again per minute):

My reason for using the EmonTH is the location of the meter and the pulse input on my Emonpi already being used for mon…
Hi All
I’m trying to implement pulse counting on my water meter and I’m struggling to get daily feed totals and also I want to measure how much water I use for showers but for the logic that I’ve attached below, once someone uses the shower, it will add the previous water use for that day.

So I have added three water meters to our house and have got two of them up and running and dumping the pulse data into emoncms.
I am reporting back to my emonpi once per minute when the water is not flowing and once per gallon while the water is flowing. My emonhub conf is reporting back to emoncms at 5 second intervals of bulk data.
Here is what I would like to do:
Monitor, (in near real time) water usage. I realize that I am only reporting every 1 gallon, so this is enough of “near real t…
