Can I display other kinds of sensors?

Post by roller »

Hi,

I have been using a WMR928 connected to a Sheevaplug for some time now.

As my WMR928 console packed up I have swapped to a RFXCOM USB receiver.

Everything works fine, however I noticed when I was testing the RFXCOM via the RFreceiver program that it was also sucessfully decoding my OWL CM113 energy monitor.

Does anyone know if/how can I import this OWL data into meteohub as an additional sensor?

Are the sensors displayed at the sensor page of Meteohub?
If yes you can ad them as a data sensor, if not you have to ask Boris if it's possible to add them to the program.

Thanks for the response.

No, the sensor only shows up when using the RFreceiver software that came with the RFXCOM box. But it can clearly be decoded and identifies itself as "ELEC1 cent-a-meter"


The OWL CM113 & similar range of energy monitors are quite common in the UK as they are sold by several supermarket chains.

I wondered if there was any way to use the "plug in" feature of the meteohub program.

I guess this post needs to be moved to "wishes" then?

Yes, I think so. Meteohub is already compatible with some energy monitors, you can see them when you try to add a new station but it should be possible to add the sensor trough the RFXcom receiver. Boris added my new type of Oregon pool temperature sensor which was also decoded by the receiver but not detected by Meteohub.

@HeinrichH

do you know if RFXCOM 1-Wire Sensor 433.92MHz RFXSensor Type-3 with temperature sensor Order code: 40066
is compatible to meteohub?
