Re: Gas meter specs

Leon, This is for your metric meter only (so those of you with a gas meter that reads in Cubic Feet can ignore this) 100 Pulses = 1 Cubic Meter 1 Cubic Meter = 35.3147 Cubic Feet 1 Pulse = .353147 Cubic Feet I would set your electric meter to increment 1 every 1 Pulse Input (set it to 1:1) There is ...

Re: Reading meter using PHP

LBJ, Yes, you are right, this is great. Very nice of rcarsey to put this together. To be honest I was not certain what I was doing. I just took the code (word for word) that is posted here by rcarsey and pasted it into a file that I named "ekm-php-reader.php". I changed the IP address, por...

Re: EKM PUSH to PVOutput.org - Auto Uploader Service

andynbradshaw, I would imagine that you are correct. It seems like the PVOutput auto uploader only takes real-time "watt" data from the EKM Push system. They then use this to calculate "Kilowatt Hour" data, rather than taking the "Kilowatt Hour Data" directly from the E...

Re: Does iSerial do SNMP / remote data retrieval

raduv, Welcome to the forum. We use the iSerial as a "virtual serial port". We send the hex meter requests to this "virtual serial port". The iSerial is really a "dumb" converter box, it does not generate the meter requests itself. The hex request is generated by the co...
