Hi, I have an SunnyWebox in the network and installed the swb driver succesfully to trend the power from the solar paneels. the logfile shows me, that the "grid_power" and "grid_energy" are periodically mapped (yes, with values :-)) The "$current.grid_power" shows me values, but the "$day.grid_power.sum" seems unknown. For me as a newbee, it looks like the data is not written to the database and can therefor not get calculated or used for trend graphics, right? Is there anybody, who could give me a hint how I can bring the data to the database? you need to extend the database schema as explained in the customization guide: http://weewx.com/docs/customizing.htm#add_archive_type another option is to use a schema (and database) dedicated to power monitoring. this approach works well not just for the sunny webbox, but also for the outback/mate, enphase/envoy, vedirect, gem/ecm1240, and other power monitors and solar controllers. in that case you would use something like this in your weewx configuration: [Station] ... station_type = SunnyWebBox [SunnyWebBox] driver = user.swb host = x.x.x.x [DataBindings] [[wx_binding]] database = archive_sqlite table_name = archive manager = weewx.wxmanager.WXDaySummaryManager schema = user.swb.schema [Databases] [[archive_sqlite]] database_type = SQLite database_name = swb.sdb [DatabaseTypes] [[SQLite]] driver = weedb.sqlite SQLITE_ROOT = /var/lib/weewx the schema is user.swb.schema instead of the default wview schema. then when you start weewx for the first time, it will create the power monitoring schema and the data from the sunny webbox will go directly to database. m -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
