Hi, thanks in advance its amazing what you’ve done here everything seems to work fine but I get "Sync incomplete each time I have the US Gen 5 2 clam version, zw:L type:3101 mfr:0086 prod:0002 model:001C ver:1.17 zwv:3.67 lib:03 cc:70,32,60,85,56,72,86 epc:2 ep:[‘3101 32’] What can I do?

Issue is it included in insecure mode. “zw:L”. you need it to exclude it and include again in secure mode "zw:Ls"by pressing the button twice,

This DTH is amazing.

My only issue right now is that there is no data being logged since I switched from the stock DTH to this new DTH. My last event entry was from yesterday so I have no idea what energy usage is happening without staring at the actual device screen in the app. What do I need to do in order to get that data logged to the IDE? I tried turning on “logging” in the settings, but nothing changed and I am concerned that will generate too much chatter in the IDE. This is my last entry in the event list:

Also - how in the world can I extract that energy usage data? IFTTT doesn’t show this device to setup a spreadsheet dump, and there aren’t any SmartApps that I can find.

Any ideas?

I agree it a shame there is nothing logged under “Recently”. The solve this I use the Simple Event Logger to expert data to google sheets. IMO it works really well.

[OBSOLETE] Simple Event Logger Community Created SmartApps

This SmartApp will stop working when the Groovy platform is retired This SmartApp is no longer supported because SmartThings made some changes to the way events are handled which has impacted some users and it will most likely completely stop working in the near future. There’s another SmartApp called something like Google Sheets Logger that subscribes to the events instead of retrieving them from the device history so it most likely won’t have the same issues as this one. Simple Event Logger is a fully customizable SmartApp that allows you to accurately log all device activity to a Google Sheets Spreadsheet. Each event is stored on a separate row so that you have their exact time and details. Google Sheets has an easy to use filter feature which allows you to do things like view all e…

OK - my Home Energy Meter is showing status “HUB_DISCONNECTED” in the IDE. What does that mean?

mejifair · February 15, 2019, 8:06pm

OK - I set this up and it works great. However, since there is no logging in “recently” there is no current data populating in the spreadsheet. Does anyone know why my meter is not logging any data? The IDE is also blank from the time I switched the DTH from the stock handler to the @ClassicGOD one.

ClassicGOD · February 15, 2019, 8:22pm

If you want to see events in app and IDE just change displayed: false to displayed: true in lines 312 and 317 of the main DTH code. Just a warning - this device can generate a LOT of data - there was a reason i disabled this.

mejifair · February 15, 2019, 8:34pm

Wow fast response!!!

I really just want to be able to capture the voltage, amperes and watts in real time and dump them into a spreadsheet. The stock DTH does not have all of these. Is there a happy medium between the two? (no data and copious data)?

ClassicGOD · February 15, 2019, 8:48pm

All depends on how often you configure the meter to report - mine was set to report W for 3 clamps and summary reading every 15s, V every minute, kWh every 5 minutes - it’s a ton of data

Automated_House · February 15, 2019, 10:24pm

reboot the hub and that should go away

Hello,

thank you for the DTH, really useful. I’ve run into an issue that probably needs to be related to my setup. I’ve setup each clamp into different phases of my installation but I’ve connected all the with L and N. As a results, current is measured properly but V, W and kWh is not. what do you think I am doing wrong?

Thanks

Wardie · March 20, 2019, 7:08am

Brilliant DTH thanks classicGOD !!! No errors so far, but any idea what takes the time when it is sync’ing? I was worried at first it was broken but then I just waited - can take a couple of minutes.

thrasher204 · March 24, 2019, 12:47am

Is there anyway to add a variable to the reading on a child device? My solar feed has 2 lines coming out of it and the generation is split evenly between them. Rather than using both clamps just to measure the Solar output I want to just multiply the value by 2.

Ernie_Sharp · March 27, 2019, 11:38pm

Great app, but I am having problems with one small thing. I am sending the data to Grovestreams, but the HEM only sends updates to Grovestream when you push the refresh button. Is there any way to get the HEM to send the data every minute or so? I am only looking to send watts, not the large amount of data that gets sent when you change reporting to “true” on lines 312 and 317.

thrasher204 · March 28, 2019, 6:51pm

@Ernie_Sharp You can setup a pollster instance to refresh it

[OBSOLETE] "Pollster" - A SmartThings Polling Daemon Community Created SmartApps

Please note that excessive polling of some devices (particularly Zigbee and Z-Wave) may cause network congestion and lead to degraded system performance. Therefore, polling rate faster than 5 minutes is not recommended. The author of this software bears no responsibility for your system performance. Use it at your own risk. I don’t claim originality of the idea, but I needed one badly for some of my projects and didn’t find anything among the shared apps. So there it is… Many SmartThings devices rely on polling to periodically update their status. These devices have ‘polling’ capability and provide poll() function that the SmartThings polling engine calls approximately once every 10 minutes. Unfortunately, SmartThings polling engine proved to be unreliable and sometimes it stops working…

Excuse my ignorance but i cannot get this DH working. It is in my list of device handles in the classic app and it says published. In the IDE I see zw:Ls.
When i go into the classic app and view right now all I see is the stock report allowing me to reset and configure. When i click on configure nothing happens. I see nothing like what others show for the different graphs, etc.

I am sure it is a problem with the loose nut behind the wheel

I successfully added a DH for a Zooz 4 in 1 sensor months ago but i cant get this DH working.
Thanks and again I apologize for my ignorance.

@ClassicGOD Thanks for this DTH! It is the first custom DT and SA I have installed in my ST system. It was a breeze and you should be commended on how much better this is than what is provided by the manufacturer. I’ve only been using it, but am getting the “Sync” issue, so hopefully that will go away with some time.

However, for some reason my child devices don’t seem to be reporting Wattage. Any thoughts?

How come my Clamp 3 says -0.200A and is measuring negative kwh, not showing Watts.? It is not turned the wrong way, since its the same as the other clamps?

TmpR · December 11, 2019, 7:24pm

@ClassicGOD I’m stumped! I’ve installed the Gen5 parent/child DHs. Paired my HEM with a double press so it’s in secure mode (confirmed in raw description).

Out of the box none of the child devices are reporting anything, I’ve enabled logging and wathcing the logs no data is ever reported for child devices, they are all ep0.

If I press the sync icon on the child devices, nothing happens in the logs at all.

I’ve tried disabling the thresholds in settings and I’ve tried adding Wattage reporting to group 1 at 5secs for the 3 clamps as well.

I’m what I need to enable in settings to get the reporting through, but for now I’d settle for wattage and kWh updates on the 3 clamps.

TmpR · December 12, 2019, 10:19am

So the reason the manual refresh isn’t working for the child devices is that’s it’s been disabled in code.

Line 161 is “return [:]” so the function never executes, but is there a reason for this?

github.com

ClassicGOD/SmartThingsPublic/blob/master/devicetypes/classicgod/aeotec-hem-gen5.src/aeotec-hem-gen5.groovy#L161


	sendEvent(name: "combinedMeter", value: "RESETTING KWH!", displayed: false)
	cmds << zwave.meterV3.meterReset()
	cmds << zwave.meterV3.meterGet(scale: 0)
	cmds << [zwave.meterV3.meterGet(scale: 0),1]
	cmds << [zwave.meterV3.meterGet(scale: 0),2]
	cmds << [zwave.meterV3.meterGet(scale: 0),3]
	if (cmds) { return encapSequence(cmds,1000) }
}


def childRefresh(dni) {
	return [:]
	logging("${device.displayName} - executing childRefresh() for $dni","info")
	def cmds = []
	Integer ep = (dni-"${device.deviceNetworkId}-c") as Integer
	cmds << response(encap(zwave.meterV3.meterGet(scale: 0), ep))
	cmds << response(encap(zwave.meterV3.meterGet(scale: 2), ep))
	cmds << response(encap(zwave.meterV3.meterGet(scale: 4), ep))
	cmds << response(encap(zwave.meterV3.meterGet(scale: 5), ep))
	sendHubCommand(cmds,1000)
}

So I’ve not got manual refreshes working, but how do I get automatic updates?

I’m guessing it’s to do with enabling reporting to the groups but I can’t see where those groups get associated with the Hub in the DH, or how that information gets handled by the DH.
