Dial widget not getting data?

Submitted by Jasper on Tue, 02/12/2014 - 23:58

Sample dashboard at: http://emoncms.org/Jasper&id=17687

Left hand side, realtime graph and dial set to the voltage feed.

Right hand side, same vis set to one of my power feeds.

On all the power feeds, the realtime graph can see the data just fine, but the dial stays firmly at 0, no matter what I've tried so far.

What am I doing wrong?

Well, apparently it was something wrong with those feeds. Deleting all my feeds and recreating everything from scratch fixed it.

Welll.. no. Cheered too soon.

It worked *briefly*. And now *all* my feeds (including voltage) are in a state where dials and feedvalue widgets simply return 0. And the graphs still go fine.

Can anyone give me some pointers where I should start looking?

Jasper,

Did you ever solve your problem? I am running into the same issue. I have two emonTH sensors, both are sending data but the dials are not showing the data. Before adding my second sensor, my dials were working fine.

Update: I deleted my new feed, re-added it, and renamed both feeds without using parenthesis. Originally I had them named DHT22 Temperature (Inside) and DHT22 Temperature (Outside). This seems to have fixed the issue, dials are working for both emonTH feeds.

I'm having the same problem, the dashboard is appearing publicly, but the dials are sitting at zero? tired creating a new dashboard with no change.

Are the respective feeds set as 'public'?

Got me, sorry made an assumption that feeds on a public dashboard would automatically be public. but i see they are not.

I have made my feeds public but still do not get any readings on my dials at all.

Any further suggestions? Thanks in advance

Camden, you need to provide more information about your system and how you have set it up before we can help. For example, are you using emoncms.org or a standalone system?

Hello,

I have exactly the same problem. I have 3 inputs of 3-phase power: Power1-Power3. I make few feeds: log, kwh, kwh/d, hist, max. And in the end of input Power1 I want to have a sum of all phases, so I add input Power2 and Power3, log it as Power, later do the same - kwh, kwh/d, hist etc.

In dashboard I use dials of Power1-Power3 - they are updating, everything is OK. But dial of Power is showing 0. If I add realtime or rawdata, they are shown correctly, updating. So widgets are not working, visualisations are working.

One more strange thing: when I add feed values for Power1 max - Power3 max, they show correc tvalues in edit mode, but show 0 in view mode (not public - normal logged in).

Pictures are attached.
