Vera 2 (1.1.1245) is not showing energy usage or cost through cp.mios.com using SmartSwitch’s. All devices are showing and communicating and show energy usage locally (watts) and via cp.mios.com but are not recording /cp.mios.com/measure using a smart switch either total kwh, cost or cost per day.
Having same problem, also when I input the cost per KWH on the location settings page and save, when I go back in to check feild it is left blank, using vera 2 firmware version: 1.1.1047
Thanks. My first lamp does show ‘0 w’ on the UI. cp.mios.com does not show any energy usage available (yet). I added some estimates to several devices, i’ll see what happens.
Any idea on a wattage estimate for a 220v HVAC unit?
[quote=“Intrepid, post:6, topic:168217”]Any idea on a wattage estimate for a 220v HVAC unit?[/quote]Depends on the unit, 2kW - 5kW? check the specifications plate on the unit and look for the Amperage (Evap & Cond) and use OHM’s law P=(IxV) to estimate it. Watts = Amps x Volts.
OK, this is tracking pretty well on cp.mios. The one major device that does not show is the trane thermostat (HVAC). I guess this is since it is not a traditional on/off device. Any tips?
The T-stat wattage gets entered like this: 11000,3300,485
The first number is for Heating, then Cooling and Fan.
Currently the fan wattage does not report. Bug report has been filed. http://bugs.micasaverde.com/view.php?id=1435
Thanks, JOD, you are a fountain of Vera knowledge and goodness. This works perfectly.
I used 5000 watts for my 3 ton combo furnace (cool), 2500 for gas heat, and 500 for fan. Heat may be the same as fan, as the emergency strips rarely kick in.
Can anyone help me get my trane thermostat energy usage working? I’ve put in the three comma separated wattages for the heat pump, but nothing shows on the initial energy usage page(s). Just not enough data for pie chart, or not enough data logged. No pretty charts or graphs filled in. There is a graph, but no entery of my usage. I have updated to the latest firmware.
Thanks
