Realtime web interface, detection tool and bugfixes
Realtime web interface
We now have a shiny web interface that updates itself as soon as a value is read from the smart meter:
This is helpful for debugging and initial installation. Everything is included in the binaries: the installation remains as easy as downloading the binary and starting it.
Additional features
- We introduce the
sdm_detect
utility that allows you to search for Eastron SDM meters. - We also worked on the stability, especially for the Raspberry Pi in combination with FTDI USB cables. Please refer to the documentation. We spawned a sister project that develops an isolated USB-RS485 adaptor.
- The timing of the modbus interface is now faster. This might lead to a slightly higher modbus error rate, but since the code retries automatically, this should not be a problem.
