EM1010 Sensor Numbering?

Post by stefferber »

Hello,

I successfully connected Metehub to my Conrad Energy Control 3000 USB as a EM1010 device. I am confused about the sensor data from the em1010 device. Which number:type belongs to what sensor?

The Meteohub screen is attached to this post as a zipped html-file. The lower station, station 1 = EM1010 is the relevant.

Looks like nobody has a complete list. So I start with what I know for "Conrad Energy Control 3000 USB". Via 868.35 MHz radio it can receive data from up to 12 measuring sensors of type
  • ES-1 socket sensor,
  • ES-2 electricity meter reading sensor
  • ES-3 top hat rail sensor,
  • ES-4 gas meter sensor, and
  • ES-5 solar feed sensor.
At max there can be 4 x ES-2, 4 x ES-4. And 4x of any combination from (ES-1, ES-3, ES-5).

Possible Sensor Adresses:

Code: Select all

ES-1 -> 5, 6, 7, 8
ES-2 -> 1, 2, 3, 4
ES-3 -> 5, 6, 7, 8
ES-4 -> 9, 10,11, 12
ES-5 -> 5, 6, 7, 8
I have the following configuration:

Code: Select all

Sensor Type  Sensor Address
ES-2              1
ES-1              5
ES-4              9
Then selecting the Weather Station "EM1010" in Meteohub:

Here, I can select more IDs in Meteohub then sensor are really avialable. This looks to me like a problem of the Conrad Device itself. Somehow it does not always know which address is really used. Anyway, we know, so we pick out the right addresses
Assigning Meteohub ID  data?? for each sensor output stream

Here I have to guess what the meaning of each value for electricity measurement is:
  • power = Average value of last measuring interval (current value) in Watt [W]
  • max power = Peak value of the last measuring interval in Watt [W]
  • energy = Total Energy since reset in kilo-Watt-Hour [kWh]
One intervall seems to be around 5 Minutes but this is not very accurate. If this is all correct a plot like this would represent the data accordingly:

The red box is the measured power; or more accurate the top line of the box is the measured average power and the red complete box is the energy in 5 Minutes. The black line is the Energy since reset of the device which is typically what you know from your old mechanical main intake meter.

I have no glue what the meaning of each value for gas measurement is, maybe:
  • max power = Total gas volume since reset in 1000*(m³)
  • energy = Total gas volume since reset in m³/10 rounded to two digits after "."
  • power = Total gas volume in last interval in 1000*(m³)
Please review, confirm, refine, add, or correct this.
