Powerfox Virtual Device - HTTPS GET

[Qadyc 0]

Hi all,

 

I was wandering if anyone has yet created a Virtual device for this? 

It is a Energy meter with a good API, but I am unable to add it. can somebody create a virtual device for this?

This is the documentation regarding the API of the manufacturer:

There are documentations of adding this to Home Assitant or FHEM, but nothing well described for Fibaro.

The output would be { "Watt": 84.0, "Timestamp": 1566909358, "A_Plus": 276696.6, "A_Plus_HT": 193687.6, "A_Plus_NT": 83009.0, "A_Minus": 0.0, "Outdated ": false }

I´d like this to be a Energy meter Device so I can use it to switch on heavy loads in order to use my solar generated energy more efficiently.

 

Am using a HC2.

 

Thank you in advance

HI @Qadyc

just get the data a HTTP request and save the json in a global variable. Afterwards you can get the Data from the json and do what you want with it. 

something like that:

To implement Powerfox to Fibaro HC3 just follow the steps below:

 

1. Create 4 virtual devices (QuickApps): 2x Power meter (W), Production and Consumption and 2x Smart meter (kWh), Production and Consumption. Leave the LUA code as generated by Fibaro.

2. Create 9 Labels, naming Label1, Label2 ... Label9 for each of those devices.

3. Create a Generic Virtual Device named "Powerfox Exporter".

4. Delete the generated LUA code of this device and replace it with the code attached to this post.

5. Insert Username, Password, Device ID of your Powerfox device.

6. Insert the Virtual Device IDs of the 4 devices from step 1 and the Virtual Device ID of the exporter.

7. Change the refreshInterval according to your needs.

 

If it's done correctly, save it and the values should appear.
