This is my attempt to integrate the Smart Electric Meter being used by Oncor in the Texas Area. Besides the smartmetertexas.com website which is pretty useless there did not seem to be many options to view real time data except going to the meter. Since I have Solar panels and there is no net mete…

This is exactly what I’m looking for. Also live in Texas and although the SMT website got a facelift it’s still not that useful. Is this still working for you??

Thanks for creating this. It’s also exactly what I’m looking for. I think I’m close to getting the node script to run, but seem to be hitting an undefined date error as below. Any thoughts? mike@localhost:~/emu2$ ./runraven Path specified ‘’ does not exist. Resorting to default path '/home/mike…

I sorted it out, I believe. The line should read new Date(data.today) instead of date.today. Anyway, it’s running and I can see my realtime usage. Thanks so much for this project! Do the graphs take some time to build?

Got it to work. I was missing the broker (mosquitto). Once installed it started workind… kind of. I only have the current meter reading on my Device (in smartthings app). The graph doesn’t load (keeps spinning). The info at the bottom for today, yesterday etc won’t load either. Also it seems tha…

After a lot of time trying to understand how all of this worked I managed to find out why data wasn’t populating. My EMU2 device is new, therefore it still doesn’t have “previous period data”. raven.js fires the mqtt payload after reading the previous period data from the EMU, since there’s no dat…

Thanks for sorting that out. I was having the exact same problem but hadn’t taken the time to understand it further. I think I’ll leave my billing periods as configured inside the EMU-2, and just wait for the next period to update the SmartApp. I was concerned that my line-282 modification broke …

If you know the exact dates your meter is read by your company you can enter those on the settings file. That way raven.js will tell your EMU2 when to close the period and your readings will be accurate to your actual billing cycle. If no dates are configured then raven.js will close the periods t…

Would you mind sharing your handler? I also don’t have solar, but don’t see it called out as a specific section. (I have near-zero experience with groovy)

Sorry guys. My development environment was victim of ransomware so I lost everything and haven’t had the time to restart everything as yet. and thats why not reviewing messages. I am glad it is working for you folks. I did create a more robust ST-MQTT bridge but if the legacy version is working - n…

Thanks for your work. It’s exactly what I was looking for so I don’t have to be manually calculating current usage on the SmartMeterTexas website. That siste is supposed to now have better API than before but still the process to get access by filing forms and what not is kind of cumbersome. Way fa…

I’ve had the basic real-time readings working in the new app, but not the consumption or history tables. I would imagine this whole effort will need reworking once the Groovy IDE is retired, unfortunately
