I have found some messages related but changing some code is not solved

It can work fronius and emconcms?

Thanks

It seems this PR might have a fix for this issue. I’m currently testing it. Please follow this github PR for a possible fix:

Thanks for you information.
Any scheduled date when will be avqilable to stable branch?

@klxout : you can try with my fork…some times ago, I had encountered similar problems and I’ve worked on a fix…

to install my version

sudo service emonhub stop
mv /home/pi/emonhub /home/pi/emonhub_old
git clone GitHub - alexandrecuer/emonhub: Python service linking and decoding input to MQTT & Emoncms && emonhub/install
sudo service emonhub start

As I don’t have any fronius devices, i don’t use the fronius adapter, just the emonTCPmodbus one…tell me if you have problems…

Alex

Fix is now merged into master (emon-pi branch). Please let us know if the fix works for you.

The updated version is V2.1.2

Big thanks to @alexandrecuer :+1:

Sorry but I’m newbie, I have latest emoncms 9.9.5, how can I update to this version that has fixed this issue?

Thanks

How can I install this

2018-12-14 13:57:01,739 ERROR MainThread PYMODBUS NOT PRESENT BUT NEEDED !!

I’m trying to get values form fronius to monitor fronius inverter, I’m not sure if thsi is possible and what are really the options with fronius and emoncms, anybody can give some information

Thanks

Hi,

with this:

pip install pymodbus

now seems that in inpus I receive some values!!

Is this correct with this waht can I do? monitor this values with graphs? any other options?

Thanks

Well if you are receiving inputs now then you should be all set to do the same with these values as you can with any others. So the same applies in terms of creating processes to create / update feeds which can then be used for charts etc.

Just wish I could get some proper values back from my modbus connected SMA inverter. :confused:

10

I presume you’ve already done it but you need to fill in the emonhub.conf - interfacer section - the registers values you want to read

register = 40118,40092,40102,502,40285,40305,40284,40304,40086,40088,40090

You should now see the inputs in emonCMS and record them into feeds…after that you can create graphs

is it working now ?

Hi,

Thanks this registers were configured and are reporting results, now my problem is I can’t generte grpahs and I can’t find a clear information how to do this

A second question, I have rotex HPSU and I liek to monitor like is made here http://emoncms.org/ChabrosMaina/ It seems a great tool but I can’t find where and hwo to obtain this values from rotex HPSU 508 8KW, any suggestion?

Thanks

Hello
Ok fine if you can use the modbus interfacer…
for graph purposes, the example you give is a full dashboard…
You can try by the beginnings…should be easier
Once you have data inputs coming in, you can create feeds

or

Then you will be able to visualize the feeds via a graph

Hi,

Thanks but I have problem when I’m creating feeds I receive this error (attached screenshot)

Hello
It seems to be an emoncms problem, not an emonhub one…which version do use?
Can yu make a screenshot of your inputs screen to be sure the input controller is working fine ?
I had a similar pb after reimporting datas coming from an older version of emonCms and to reinstall a new version of emoncms was a quick solution

Alex

Hi and tanks for your answer

I have rebuild from latest stable image 9.9.5 october 2018

Attached screenshot

I am new, not sure if this is correct, now recieving valies from fronius with modbus

Thanks

Is yur feed screen empty ?
If not, try not to create a new feed but to link to an existing feed when parametring yur input…

Hi,

Is not empty, IT seems that with some browser for IE, and on all brwoser after create feed you have to make save and then close and not save, save, then is shoed this error

It seems ok…try to refresh the feed size to check if they are correctly growing or go to the hdd via ssh…yu should find a meta and a dat file for each feed in /home/pi/data/phpfina

If you have feed with size >0 you should be able To visualize them with the graph module

By the way, in emonhub.conf yu should add one to your registers numbers…dont know how the fronius works but on my devices when i want to monitor register x, i give x+1 to emonhub
The interfacer was originally written in this way and i did not change it when i rewrote the thing
So check the fronius doc…
