SML Reader - how to integrate

hi there!

at first, thanks @msteigenberger for the nice binding-port!
For me, it worked. I’m using a EMH eHZ-IW8E2A and with that, (nearly) all is fine (I’m still opposed to configuring Things in PaperUI and have to figure out, why my configuring with files didn’t work… :wink: )

What did I do:

  1. installed the “Eclipse IoT Market” (PaperUI > AddOns > “MISC-Section”)
  2. dropped “SmlReader Binding” from the “Eclipse Marketplace”
    2.1 just click on search: https://marketplace.eclipse.org/search/site/smlreader?
    2.2 drag/drop the “install” Icon to the open PaperUI
  3. I got now a new “Thing”, which I called Powermeter
  4. There are seven channels with my eHZ
  5. configured a Item for all the channels

so, as I don’t understand the OBIS nomenclature, I just figured, these channels to be the ones for my purpose (as I don’t feed any power back, I am only consuming the power from the network):

  • smlreader:meter:METERNAME:1-0#1-8-0: this seems to be the overall consumption (*1000)
  • smlreader:meter:METERNAME:1-0#1-8-1: this one is slighty different (but could be due to parallel processing?)
  • smlreader:meter:METERNAME:1-0#16-7-0: this seems to be the actual consumption

the other channels seem to be:

  • smlreader:meter:METERNAME:129-129#199-130-3: manufacturer (in my case EMH)
  • smlreader:meter:METERNAME:129-129#199-130-5: is somewhat cryptical
  • smlreader:meter:METERNAME:1-0#1-8-2: is 0 all the time
  • smlreader:meter:METERNAME:1-0#0-0-9: seems also to be the manufacturer (EMH)

Is there a list of channels and what they really mean somewhere?
