Can we delete the keys and re-list the topic now?
(And was there a better way of concealing the APIKeys from all & sundry?)
Sorry about that will not do it in future I have deleted them
Publishing your APIkeys - especially to emoncms.org - meant that ANYONE who noticed them could hijack your account and use it for themselves. That wouldn’t be good.
(I’d already deleted them, and you deleted my edit! Not to worry, though.)
Hi Glyn I have tried that putting the 42 ley in everything and rebooting the pi but still nothing
Great, I can see you inputs from emonPi (node 5) are updating now. You just need to log them to Feeds. Unlike for local Emoncms emoncms.org uses numerical Input names to optimize bandwidth.
It looks like your Input Processes are using names rather than numerical Input ID numbers. Click the spanner icon next to the numerical Input ID’s to log them to a feed.
Hi Glyn
I am getting totally out of my depth here I have got three of the feeds logged can you tell me what names and values I should be using I am trying to get the Solar app to work (I have it working on the local machine although not properly but I will post that when I get this sorted out) I enclose screenshot of input and ouputs inemoncms.org
I’ve just corrected the Input Process setup for you. I followed the Type1 solar PV setup guide from: Solar PV - Guide | OpenEnergyMonitor
My solarPV is working now 
Alternately you could have used the new device module autosetup by enabling the device module beta on your account page:
Hi Glyn about 15 minutes after the last post I made it all seems to have started working. does it all seem ok to you the solar app is loading though I am not sure it is correct yet.

Hi Glyn That’s brilliant I’m so grateful I was beginning to give up. i’ll study your post to see if I can understand it and then apply it to my local emoncms Thanks again.

You’re most welcome, we’re working to make this initial setup easier.
It will probably take 12/24hrs to populate with useful data. Could you post a screen shot after 24hrs and I’ll check.
Will do, thanks again.
Hi Glyn I am posting the screenshots of the graphs,does it look ok to you. The negative use now line, drops below the graph unlike the one on your solar guide page also the view history sometimes is blank… If it is correct I am struggling to interpret the figures, when in negative use has it something to do with the export tariff the one where we get paid for 50% of what we export.
… as one that also think his setup/configuration is not right.
would be great to find a 10 step guid what to check/configure in the emonhub.cfg file, followed by what in input and feeds to configure per power/current sensor.

Ok, got it. This is because the feed you labelled as ‘use’ is actually grid import / export. This is what it goes negative when you’re generating. Your solar PV system is monitored like a ‘Type-2’ solar PV system
I’ve added Solar Generation (Key 2, Node 5) to this Grid input to calculate your actual ‘Use’
Hi Glyn
Many thanks for that it is working fine now
Its funny about it using type 2, I just rechecked and I definitely have the export clamp on the output from the panels before the meter and kenly blocks, and the import on the feed, on the import cable straight after the Electric board fuse before the meter. I am getting positive from import when using & negative on import when exporting. or is that because I renamed grid import /export as use
Can you tell me what the show balance means in the graph.
When I make the changes to my local emoncms can I do it by deleting all the feeds, then deleting the two process lists on 1 & 2. (would that get me back to the start up configuration, removing all changes I had made)
Then going to configure devices and auto setup a new device as type 2.
And would doing any of that affect what you have set up for me on emoncms.
