Hello,
i use MQTT from Venus GX to show a lot of datas in Grafana but i have an issue for one of them.
The topic N/serialNo/vebus/#
and for example this one :
N/serialNo/vebus/261/Energy/OutToInverter
There is no reset each day on this value, so it's difficult to get the total consumption of the day.
I found that the restart of the venus reset this values.
But is there a better way maybe in command line to reset this logs daily please ?
Thanks for your advise.
I found a way (but not really clean) to have the counters at 0 each day.
I just add a line to the Venus GX crontab to reboot at midnight.
#reboot everay day at 00:00
00 22 * * * root /data/rebootatmidnight.sh
Here is the content of the rebootatmidnight.sh file :
root@beaglebone:/data# cat rebootatmidnight.sh
#!/bin/bash
cd /sbin
reboot
There is 2 hours of lag due to the time zone of the Venus GX here it's 22 p.m for midnight in my home location.
I still waiting for a better solution, for example just restart a service or reset a log file to do the same thing.
I saw the log reset is possible for the generator option. Maybe it will be the same for the main consumption logs.
