In reality, the meter publishes every 30sec but there is also a way to “ask” for a reading, but this would require to implement a polling mechanism in the binding which I don’t know if it has been implemented.
The issue with 30sec readings is that if you want to switch off any devices when the power consumption is too high, you usually need to react fast (in Italy you need to ensure that the avg consumption in the last 2 mins is below a specific threshold, otherwise your power is going to be cut off). And you also need not to be over-reacting so you need to pick few readings and react on the avg rather than react on just one reading.
In 2 mins you only have 4 readings, but in order to have an impact on avg power consumption you’d better react after just 1 min, so 2 readings only.
Polling could be done also by a script running out of the binding: the answers caused by the polling script would be read by the binding as they are shared events that the binding is already reading.
Unfortunately I couldn’t find a script which is able to interact with the OWN bus and can be run on my RBPI.
I am thinking about bypassing my bticino load control using an opehab rule.
Something like:
Trigger: every time the power item changes
Rule:
if the average value over the last 60 second (so at least 2 measurements) is above the threshold (in my case 6600W)
then check item 1 ( the first that should ne turned off) power consumption and if it’s above xxx turn it off.
Else proceed with the other items until one over the threshold is found and turned off.
Do you think that having only 2 measurements would be a reliability issue?
I have a similar rule and it’s currently working, but my rule reacts on just 1 reading as my threshold is quite extreme (5.7kW with 4.5kW contractual power limit) and the tolerance is allowed for 2 mins only.
What I see is that the rule reacts on peaks and cuts the power to the heat-pump, which is not ideal, that’s why I aas looking for more frequent readings.
I see that your threshold is 6.6kW so I guess you have a 6kW contract and you want to react on the +10% threshold: did you check the rules for the tolerance? In my contract the tolerance is +30% for 2 mins and +10% for 2 hours.
Yes I have a 6kw contract, that means that I can use up to 6.6kw with no limitation. So my rule would trigger over 6.6.
If you stay over 6.6 for more than 2 minutes than the meter will disconnect the power: the rule should prevent this from happening.
I agree with you on the need of using an “average” measurement, and from your experience it seems that 1 measurement in inadequate. So I was wondering if 1 minute observation period with only 2 measurements would be enough.
Or maybe 3 measurements should be used (so usually 90 seconds)
most important what already works is channel temperature for actual temperature and setpointTemperature wich allows you to change the target temperature in the 3550 central, BUT for now only if you set in central to “manual”, if you have set “automatic” the value will be overwritten.
To get the addresses run a scan, Drag the devices over into the plant area and the save it as a new plant. I copy these into excel to make it eaasier to find things later and add them to the projects S10, Mh202 etc I save separate plants just for S10 and MH202 to keep the file size down.
yes it is! as @m4rk suggested eg in your last screenshot (module2) you see “zone” = 3 and “point de lumiere” = 3 → so this is address 33, the screenshot before (module1) is address 31.
this is the number you use in the binding things at “where”
1/ Shouldn t it be set in local button modality in bistable and blades control ?
2/ Seeing this you confirm, the switch for shutter is not set with jumpers ? Or if it is set with jumpers, you confirm it does not exclude from making it work like i did for a light ? Otherwise can i erase jumpers to assign virtually via MyHomeSuite ?
Hope i am clear, i just want to know if i am doing things correctly…
sorry i dont quite understand what you want. i dont use the h4661m2 actor, i use a normal f41174 even for my shutters.
but in generally i would configure ALL components via myhomesuite (as far as poosible, eg some alarm-components are not able to be configured virtually). so if the actor has an id i would remove the configurators, remove power short to reload, and then configure via myhomesuite
