Aeon-labs Home Energy Monitor with HC2


antamaga

Question

Have you ever tried Aeon-labs Home Energy Monitor with HC2?

Are they compatible? I can enable scenarios from measurements submitted by the Energy Monitor?

Ciao, purtroppo non sono compatibili con l'attuale versione stabile di home center 2. volevo provarli con la versione beta (che ha un accenno di sistema di misurazione) ma la beta mi ha mandato in ricovery la centrale. quindi per il momento niente...

Aggiornamento, ho appena messo la nuova beta, e il sensore a 2 pinze AeoTek viene riconosciuto correttamente, purtroppo segnala solo la potenza istantanea, e al momento non sembra voler fare altro.

Question, how do you install this monitor.

If you buy the 2 or 3 clamps version, can you then monitor 2 or 3 separate groups,

or do you need the 2 clamps voor single phase monitoring to put 1 clamp on brown and one on the blue cable? (same for 3 phase?)

can you post a screenshot of the monitoring an installation in the electricity box

thanx for the help.

Hi! if you buy the 2 or 3 clamp meter you have 2 or 3 different meter. now i cannot take a screenshot because i cannot login in my home center. and i haven't solved this problem yet.

In my case i put the first clamp on the Photovoltaic out and the other clamp on the main load of the electric system.

Hello ,

Thnx, this means that the manual of the aeon labs is wrong

It clearly states that the 2 clamps must go on the 2 fases .

  • Does anyone know alternative z-wave products to manage the system according to the electricity production of PV systems?

    no, the manual isn't wrong. it only show a system with 2 phases and a neutral. If your electric system is like mine, you can put 1 clamp on the phase of a line (example the kitchen line) and the another clamp on the phase of another line.

    For me this configuration works.

    thanks for the info, can you please post a screenshot of the readouts as soon as you can log back in?

    thank you very much,

    I've bought this device too and it´s only recognized as a switch (not as a energy meter).

    Is it compatible with new upcoming beta release?

    Now it is recognized as power meter.

    But no chance to use it for the Energy Monitor.

    The NorthQ:

    Please login or register to see this link.

    is recognized in the alpha version. but still not showing in the energy panel.

    I have a virtual device that shows the average usage of the last 15 minutes. which is good for now, just hope that it will be fully integrated

    ofcourse, there is just one thing; there are two "actual wattage" labels. As we had a discussion about the correct way to calculate the wattage of 15 minutes. Maybe you can tell me which one is right

    Another thing:
    The "set manual" you need to change the ID of that virtual device and set a value that is just a little lower than your last measurement, the next time it will correct it with the new measurement. That is just to get it running the first time

    what software version are you on?

    If your on alpha:

    local newValue = fibaro:getValue(NORTHQID, "energy");

    earlier versions:

    local newValue = fibaro:getValue(NORTHQID, "value");

    Ok, thank you, now it works.

    I am on the beta.

    Why do you calculate the wattage different ?

    because I had a discussion with my collegue about the correct way of calculating it... What do you think is the correct way?

    As it is the average of 15 minutes (1/4 of an hour) you could say: devide by 0.25 and then * 1000 to get the wattage.

    Or multiply by 3600 as that is the amount of minutes...
