Hi all,
I recently purchased one Current Cost EnviR with a netsmart bridge, in order to monitor my energy usage. First of all, I set up the EnviR with the online dashboard that Current Cost has designed, my.currentcost.com. After realizing that the capabilities of the dashboard do not fit my needs, I read about Pachube, which now is Cosm. I definitely went for a try. After setting up my account, it was very easy to setup my device and see in minutes my data over cosm console. Great application, but I could only see global energy (not IAM's) and temperature readings, which was a major disadvantage for. Apart from that, I could only download the average 5min values and not the raw data. And after all, I discovered that if the bridge loses internet or communication, the reading in cosm do not show zero and shows the last available value. I decided then to leave the testing for later, as I had to find a way to download raw data. Meanwhile, after claiming my device to cosm, in the currentcost dashboard, the device was displayed as frozen. After several tries, I could not managed to make the device go online again. I started then trying to mess with the cosm api and feed, deleting them, installing them again, but everything was becoming more frustrating...!
And now here I am: 1. My api exists in cosm, but I can see no feed. 2. I tried to claim my device again, with no success. 3. In debug mode shows Awaiting incoming requests... 4. The bridge is on router, has obtained a normal ip through DHCP 5. Current Cost dashboard still shows Frozen device
I do not know what to do. I need to fix the problem, because I am trying to use EnviR to develop an energy efficiency service for my customers.
Many thanks in advance for your support. Dimitris
