IO extender

Hi Tim,

We just have another problem.

This time is the DC power monitor device connected to eWon.

We can monitor current and voltage, all are okay.

However , the parameter called Enery in Wh,please refer to attachment.

we would expect this is VItime , voltage x current x hours…

We could not find any place how to assign values to this parameter, please advise

kind regards

Hello,

Do you have one of these IO extenders to read power?

Whoops just reread that, it looks like the Watt-hours is assigned here:

No , it is direct reading from Hull sensor and battery voltage

#47

Just to clarify are you only trying to change the units?

#48

We thought we wanted to automatically calculate the power consumption of a load. We know the current and voltage so we expect the dc monitor to calculate the power by multiplying the current with voltage . Otherwise what the energy parameter used for

#49

Are these values that you’re reading in here not what you would expect for the Watt value?

Thanx Tim,

after a few trial and errors last night , we got the value right in Watts. This is fine.

Actually we wanted to set the incoming and outgoing Wh , looks like these values require some conversion. the problem is we do not know where these values come from.
