Guides
Task-based guides: set up sources, correct meter readings, enter prices, evaluate values and maintain the adapter.
Sources, units and signs
- How do I separate consumption from the grid and feed-in (one datapoint with a sign)?
- Which unit do I set on the datapoint (kWh instead of Wh, m³ instead of liters)?
- Can SourceAnalytix calculate consumption and a meter reading from power (W)?
- How do I track PV yield, feed-in and earnings?
- How do I derive a counter from flow rate, run time or several devices?
- Can I use script datapoints or unreliable sources?
Correcting meter readings and replacing meters
- How do I correct wrong, too high or negative values after a reset?
- Why are my values negative after I entered start values?
- I replaced a meter or device: how do I avoid negative values?
- My meter restarts at 0 after a power failure or every day: what do I set?
- How do I apply my real meter reading (cumulativeReading, RAW object)?
Prices and costs
- Are calculated costs recalculated when I change the price, and how do I change it from a certain date?
- How do I include a monthly basic fee?
- How do I use a dynamic electricity price (Tibber, Awattar)?
- How do I bill a day/night tariff (high/low rate)?
- How do I assign prices and create my own tariffs (e.g. heat pump)?
Evaluating values (Grafana, VIS, scripts)
- How do I evaluate values across several years without adjusting everything every year?
- Which datapoints do I use for Grafana/InfluxDB?
- How do I visualize the values in VIS, Flot, HabPanel and the history?
- How do I read SourceAnalytix values in a script?
Operation and maintenance
- How do I update SourceAnalytix (and what is a downgrade)?
- How do I switch off a datapoint or remove sources and states?
- Where is the data, how do I back it up and how do I move it?
- How do I start over with a datapoint and clean up old years?
- ioBroker was off at midnight: how do I catch up the day rollover?
