The old value are read on startup form the pimatic database. They should be replace with the current values read from the SmartPlug.

No. I am not aware of a method to soft-reset the counters of the SmartPlug. The Smartphone App does not provide this either.

The old values are not overwritten

Are you sure? How did you check? Do you get proper currentPower? If so, the other power metering values should also be updated properly. May be it is a display bug - try reload in your browser.

yes i´m sure i get values from kW and W but the other values stay the same (month day week)
They are not set to 0 when I remove the plug -
Hi guys,
I really like the edimax plugin for pimatic. I use it, to track the power consumption of my Golf GTE Plugin Hybrid car and i really works very nice. But I have a lot of errors in my log since I installed the plugin. Does anybody know the reason for this? I attached a picture of the error-log.
By the way, I have an other question, maybe it is possible to add this with the next update. It would be very usefull for me, to save the power consumption for the last three months. Maybe it’s possible to add some variables to save the values. It would be even nicer, if it would be sorted by months, so I can assign the values to the months.
For example:
edimax-Golf-GTE-january = 142,564kWh
edimax-Golf-GTE-february= 138,352kWh
.

.
edimax-Golf-GTE-december= 175,842kWhmany greetings: Jaschkopf

OK, I’ll have look into this. At a first glance, it looks like the smartplug is sometimes not reachable. Can you please check the quality of the WiFi connection between the smart plug and your wifi router?

I checked my fritzbox and the signal strength of the edimax is -79dBm. Is this enought? The Edimax is in the garage, there are two rooms (three walls) between the router an the edimax.

That’s poor and the connection is likely to break intermittently. See aslo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Received_signal_strength_indication

Hey there, i have 2 questions.
- is the plug setting on a new week/month to 0 by itself?
- is it possible to grab the kwh value and calculate the cost with a price/kwh and show in a diagram.
And the last question is good, saving the values per month to generate a yearly diagram would be very nice.
