Hi all, we now have 7 installations with emonpi/emonTX units operational. While on site, it can be very tricky to get feeds logged to EmonCMS.org as I reapeatedly get an error along the lines:
“There was an error creating device: nodeid=15 message=Device already exists” - will go through this as a window prompt dozens of times.
which eventually causes the webpage to crash, ultimately leading me to have to close page and reload. Happens more now with more devices logging.
Going back to a previous post:
Connecting multiple emonbase units to emoncms - Emoncms - OpenEnergyMonitor Community
where @borpin suggested specifying a nodeoffset for each emonpi - could the above problem be related? Specifically, could it be related to the fact that I have not changed the “baseid” of the units accordingly?
