So, I am thinking that there should be an explanation of the input feed types for beginners, to be honest half of them mean nothing to me .. For example, I do have a pulse input from my gas meter but is "pulse difference" what I should be using? It switches between 0 & 500 via my current cost monitor.
Would any of you like to expand on any of the following and I will look at putting in some sort of help text somewhere .. Ta
<option value="1">Log to feed</option>
<option value="2">x</option>
<option value="3">+</option>
<option value="4">Power to kWh</option>
<option value="5">Power to kWh/d</option>
<option value="6">x input</option>
<option value="7">input on-time</option>
<option value="8">kWhinc to kWh/d</option>
<option value="9">kWh to kWh/d (OLD)</option>
<option value="10">update feed @time</option>
<option value="11">+ input</option>
<option value="12">/ input</option>
<option value="13">phaseshift</option>
<option value="14">accumulator</option>
<option value="15">rate of change</option>
<option value="16">histogram</option>
<option value="17">average</option>
<option value="18">heat flux</option>
<option value="19">power gained to kWh/d</option>
<option value="20">pulse difference</option>
<option value="21">KWh to Power</option>
<option value="22">- input</option>
<option value="23">kWh to kWh/d</option>
Re: Feed input configuration help text
Hi elyobelyob, do you know this link: http://openenergymonitor.org/emon/node/297 ? Still not complete, but a begin. You are right about that. Wasn't clear for me either in the beginning. Maybe we should add some default processing templates like: power, temperature, pulses etc.
Re: Feed input configuration help text
Yup, that's the thing! Slightly out of date .. would be useful to get an update there .. Thanks
Re: Feed input configuration help text
I wonder what the best way would be to get the documentation into emoncms itself, so that when you scroll through the list a description appears. will have a think about it.
