Virtual Device report power consumption

[lindehoff 0]

Hi,

Is it possible to report power consumption of an virtual device via LUA?

Is it possible today?

[Guest cedriclocqueneu]

Yes, it will be great ! Same thing for temp or humidity from virtual device !

[Guest Martial25]

Put the code in your virtual device main loop:

If you want have the same information when you open your virtual device, add a label named lblValue with no name and put the line fibaro:call(VID, "setProperty", "ui.lblValue.value", value); in your main loop...

Exactly, i've build a virtual device that shows my current energy consumption (1-wire + pulse counter + OW-Server) and it would be great if it could report data to HC2 so it could add up in the energy panel.

Thank you this works great as a Virtual Device but stops working after a little while! I had to create a button with the code instead and create a scene to press the button everytime energy value changed and it has been perfect since!

I noticed issues when pinging with Virtual Devices aswell I think there is an underlying issue!

[jompa68 121]

Check for spaces after the code in the rows, i did find a couple of them (cut and paste error i guess)

sorry you misunderstand, your code works. it is virtual device that fails i run this using a scene interval and device button and it is perfect.

How to create this device? Save the code as a virtual device text and import or just past it into the main loop?

[jompa68 121]

Virtual button and paste the code there

Add 4 labels, then press button every 5min from other scen.

I created the device successfully and changed the code to retrieve the data from a smart reader cabel hooked up to a Vera. The only thing I don't manage is to get the dynamic icon. What is the naming scheme on it?

I will tinker a bit more with the code and then post it here for others to use

you need to import the icons and right click them and get properties to see what the icon number is on fibaro

This seems so great!

But I still have trouble figure out how to set up in virtual device. Could anyone print screen the setup in advance virtual device please? Thanks so much:)

Update:

I got it now, thanks. I was having trouble finding the Virtual Device ID.

Hi ROBBshop,

Did you manage to perfect your code yet? I would really appreciate it if you posted your code here.

Thanks.
