On the ECM-1240 I previously used, there was a native Windows application that took the data feed, logged it to a database, provided graphing, etc.
The equivalent of this for the GEM? I found PHP7CI3 in the software downloads, but could not find any documentation. Or is the Dashbox the recommended solution? I have scripting and such capabilities, but I was looking for something more turnkey.
Thanks,
Allan.

EmonCMS/Grafana and BTMon.py is the suggested open source route nowadays.ayates wrote: ↑Tue Nov 03, 2020 2:55 pmOn the ECM-1240 I previously used, there was a native Windows application that took the data feed, logged it to a database, provided graphing, etc.

BTMon.py is pretty easy to get running, it's available on GitHub.
https://github.com/matthewwall/mtools/b ... n/btmon.py
Over in the 3rd party software section you can browse the threads there for config examples:
https://brultech.com/community/viewforum.php?f=11
It translates our packets into different formats.
Grafana is here:
https://grafana.com/
EmonCMS is here:
https://emoncms.org/
They're both visualization software, they connect up-to whatever you decide to data log to and then you define your own graphs.

Re: Data logging and visualisation?
Thx a lot for the details. I decided to go with the Dashbox for simplicity. Next post...
