Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

This adapter uses Sentry libraries to automatically report exceptions and code errors to me as the developer. More details see below!

This adapter for ioBroker allows the reading and parsing of smartmeter protocols that follow the OBIS number logic to make their data available.

The Adapter needs nodejs 16.x+ to work!

This Adapter needs to have git installed currently for installing!

Description of parameters

ioBroker-Forum-Thread: http://forum.iobroker.net/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=5047&p=54973

Data Protocol

Supported Protocols:

  • Sml: SML (Smart Message Language) as binary format
  • D0: D0 (based on IEC 62056-21:2002/IEC 61107/EN 61107) as ASCII format (binary protocol mode E not supported currently)
  • Json-Efr: OBIS data from EFR Smart Grid Hub (JSON format)

Data Transfer

  • Serial Receiving: receive through serial push data (smartmeter send data without any request on regular intervals). Mostly used for SML
  • Serial Bi-Directional Communication: D0 protocol in modes A, B, C and D (mode E curently NOT supported!) with Wakeup-, Signon-, pot. ACK- and Data-messages to read out data (programing/write mode not implemented so far)
  • Http-Requests: Read data via HTTP by requesting an defined URL
  • Local Files: Read data from a local file

Data request interval

Number of seconds to wait for next request or pause serial receiving, value 0 possible to restart directly after finishing one message,

Default: is 300 (=5 Minutes)

Serial Device Baudrate

baudrate for initial serial connection, if not defined default values per Transport type are used (9600 for SerialResponseTransprt and 300 for SerialRequestResponseTransport)

D0: SignOn-Message Command

Command for SignIn-Message, default "?" to query mandatory fields, other values depending on device. Example: The 2WR5 Heatmeter uses "#" to query a lot more data (optional fields together with all mandatory)

D0: Mode-Overwrite

The Adapter tries to determine the D0 Protocol mode as defined in the specifications. There are some devices that do not comply to the specifications and so bring problems. Using this option you can overwrite the determined protocol mode.

  • Mode A: no baudrate changeover, no Ack-Message
  • Mode B: baudrate changeover, no Ack-Message
  • Mode C: baudrate changeover and Ack-Message needed
  • Mode D: No baudrate changeover, baudrate always 2400
  • Mode E: baudrate changeover and Ack-Message needed, Custom protocols, not Supported currectly!! Contact me if you have such an smartmeter

D0: Baudrate-Changeover-Overwrite

The adapter tries to determine the Baudrate for the data messages as defined in the protocol specifications. But as with the Mode some smartmeter provide wrong data here. SO you can use this to overwrite the baudrate for the data message as needed. Leave empty to use the baudrate changeover as defined by the smart meter.

Adapter is tested with ...

... at least:

  • Hager eHz Energy Meter (multiple, e.g. eHZ-IW8E2A5L0EK2P, EHZ363W5, )
  • EMH Energy Meter
  • EFR SmartGridHub
  • Siemens 2WR5 reader from an heat station
  • Elster AS1440
  • Iskraemeco MT174
  • Iskraemeco MT175
  • Itron EM214 Typ 720
  • Landis & Gyr E220
  • Dutch smart meter using DSRM protocol (use "Serial Device reading data only" and "D0" as protocol)
  • DZG DWS7412.1T
    • IMPORTANT: There seems to be a Firmware bug and sometimes the current energy consumptions becomes negative! Manual recalculation possible using formular from https://github.com/Apollon77/smartmeter-obis/issues/75#issuecomment-581650736* ... and many many more

Please send me an info on devices where you have used the library successfully and I will add it here.

Special Smartmeters and problems

DZG DVS74

It seems to be an error in the SML firmware sometimes and values are wrongly encoded in the SML message, but the message itself is valid. Solution is to post process the value using a Javascript. See https://github.com/Apollon77/smartmeter-obis/issues/75#issuecomment-581650736

How to report issues and feature requests

Please use GitHub issues for this.

Best is to set the adapter to Debug log mode (Instances -> Expert mode -> Column Log level). Then please get the logfile from disk (subdirectory "log" in ioBroker installation directory and not from Admin because Admin cuts the lines). If you do not like providing it in GitHub issue you can also send it to me via email ([email protected]). Please add a reference to the relevant GitHub issue AND also describe what I see in the log at which time.

What is Sentry and what is reported to the servers?

Sentry.io is a way for developers to get an overview about errors from their applications. And exactly this is implemented in this adapter.

When the adapter crashes or an other Code error happens, this error message that also appears in the ioBroker log is submitted to our own Sentry server hosted in germany. When you allowed iobroker GmbH to collect diagnostic data then also your installation ID (this is just a unique ID without any additional infos about you, email, name or such) is included. This allows Sentry to group errors and show how many unique users are affected by such an error. All of this helps me to provide error free adapters that basically never crashs.
