Gas usage smartmeter plugin Vera?

#1

On my Vera I have installed a smartmeter plugin that reads power usage and gas usage data from my smartmeter. This plugin creates 5 child devices: 4 for electriticy/power readings. These are found by The Home Remote and I easilly added them. The fith one is measuring the gas usage for my house heating system. This child device is NOT in the list of devices in The Home Remote at my Vera controller.

This shows the sdata file:
{ “name”: “Gas Verbruik”, “altid”: “SM_ImportGas”, “id”: 8, “category”: 12, “subcategory”: -1, “room”: 3, “parent”: 4, “actualusage”: “1”, “wholehouse”: “1”, “configured”: “0”, “meter”: “14343”, “meterfrac”: “14343.615”, “flow”: “783” }
“meter” shows total gas use in m3. “flow” shows actual usage in liter/hour.

How can I add this one preferrably to the standard subgroups ?

Copy & paste an existing device object. Update the “Id” property & set it to 8. Then repeat the same procedure I gave you the other day. Just substitute “light” for “meter”, or whichever field/fields you wish to read.

Yes this also works! Again thanks :+1:
So you can basically add every device and every variable of it to The Home Remote this way?

Yes. That is correct.
