DanDanDanK Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Hello, I installed the PM mini Gen3 to measure my ventilating system. I was interested to see when the system uses how much power. However, I see the power integrated over time, i.e., the energy consumption in [Wh]: Further, I see a graph of the voltage over time. This is boring. I don't expect much to happen there and I think this is a real waste of UI real estate. I'd prefer to see a power graph there. Can I configure this and how? Thank you.

ICEMAN. Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 I think at the moment we have to live with it. Also for me, live values and diagrams of following values would be the choice: - instantaneous current - instantaneous power - energy integrated (summed up) over time - voltage no diagram needed, but if instantaneous value could be seen somewhere would be ok Br ICE 1 Quote Translate Revert translation?

wimb Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 When I install a new Shelly then I try to make some documentation. Very popular is a power graph with a temperature graph. I'm using "Shelly Scanner" for that. The image shows a graph of a Shelly 1PM controlling a 1800 Watt boiler. https://www.usna.it/shellyscanner/index_en.html 1 Quote Translate Revert translation?

ICEMAN. Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Thanks! Very cool tip, software is absolutely useful Br, ICE Quote Translate Revert translation? English (American) Finnish French German Italian Portuguese (European) Spanish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanDanDanK Posted October 9 Author Share Posted October 9 Thanks! Still I'm disappointed that there's not power graph and that I have to resort to other means to generate one. I have no idea why Shelly managers made the decision to include a completely useless voltage graph but left out the power graph. 🙄 1 Quote Translate Revert translation?

Members thgoebel Posted October 9 Members Share Posted October 9 (edited) Just my 10 Cents: Drawing a graph with energy (kW/h) over a time scale (h) cancels the time component. Thus, energy per time is power… Edited October 9 by thgoebel Quote Translate Revert translation?

Clearly, this should be included in the firmware so it is available for every user and only Shelly has the power to do this. 😁 Quote Translate Revert translation?

DanDanDanK Posted October 10 Author Share Posted October 10 (edited) 6 hours ago, thgoebel said: The energy graph does this for you. Tried to give you a hint to interpret the energy graph deeply… You are right. As long as the graph has a resolution of 1 h, the energy value in [Wh] is the same value for power [W]. However, I had hoped for a graph with higher resolution (minutes or even seconds) where this simple relation does not hold true any more. Sadly, that high a resolution is (currently) not provided in the Shelly app/cloud. I guess I have to download Shelly Scanner for this.
