Hi

Can't help with time.

But for temperature insert a X 0.01 on a line above your log to feed line.

Ian

Thank Ian

the temperature is right now.

missing only fix the time on the display!!!

hi - I found I can get the emonGLCD time correct by updating the timezone line in /etc/php5/cli/php.ini.  The allowed values are on the php web site.  There are a few other forum entries here that seem to say this is ok.  Mine is set to Australia/Sydney. 

BUT - for me, at least, when I do this, the "updated" column on the feeds view then shows incorrect values. Instead of values like "5 seconds ago" I get values like "60 minutes ago".  

I have tried to figure this out, by adding some extra output fields in the "echo" line in raspberrypi_run.php, and restarting with the "log" argument, but so far this only shows that the timezone is correctly going through to raspberrypi_run.php.  I think somehow the javascript running on the browser thinks its reference time is 1 hour different.  As a very bad fix I put in some lines to put change the timezone to "Antarctica/Macquarie" just before the send to the LCD, and then revert to correct localtime after that.  The Antarctica/Macquarie timezone is one hour different from current localtime, and this timezone is mentioned in lots of google hits as meaning you need to set a correct timezone in php.ini as describe above. But I've done that....

Anyway maybe it will work for you!

I changed php.ini, but without success.

for raspberrypi_run.php, when I run it, I always get "Already running"

Thank

You just need to stop it first. You can do something like:

sudo /etc/init.d/rfm12piphp stop
sudo /etc/init.d/rfm12piphp start

Its also worth knowing that you can get some logging information with:

sudo /etc/init.d/rfm12piphp start log

but if you do that, afterwards be sure to stop it again, and restart it without the "log" keyword.  The log file will be at /var/log/rfm12piphp.log. 

I attach a log!!!!!!!

Out of the box the time on my emonGLCD is 1 hour out (showing UTC instead of BST). Log in remotely to the Pi via Putty or if you have Keyboard/screen attached use that and run sudo raspi-config then go to option 4 Internationalisation Options then I2 Change Timezone - select your local timezone then save and you should soon see your time update on the emonGLCD. Not sure if a reboot of the Pi is necessary.

Thank deskyeti
