I do hope HS can give you a hand with the silly namespace error. I too updated my system to a later version and have lost BDGraphs which is a shame .

Pity really as it is a brilliant graphing programme.Mike

I just installed BDGraph because I don't think HS is ever going to have time to install native graphs...
I'm getting this error message in the log:

With the script screenshot below.
I'm just trying to do the add to the DB.
Exactly what is the "parameter" I should "add"? I assume it is the "address" of the device which since I have all Z-Wave devices they are the HomeID-NodeID-Child#.
Or should it have the floor/room/name???

What version of HomeSeer are you running? BDGraphs has been broken since V3.0.0.111. I don't know if a fix is coming. Rich expressed some interest in helping the author, but that was months ago. I haven't been able to use it since then and I miss the graphing.HS4 Pro, 4.2.19.16 Windows 10 pro, Supermicro LP Xeon

Take a look at this thread, it provides very similar capabilities, but has the added advantage of logging value changes to a database instead of periodic samples. The graphs are actually more useful.HS4 Pro, 4.2.19.16 Windows 10 pro, Supermicro LP Xeon

That's a cool plugin. Thanks for pointing me in that direction.
I also found Jon's Database Charting Utility. Has anyone tried it? It's graphs are very pretty, but Shill's device history is dead-simple, and works very well so far.HS4 Pro, 4.2.19.16 Windows 10 pro, Supermicro LP Xeon

The unique thing about Shill's plug-in that is different from BDGraphing and Jon's is that the database entries are change based, so the graphing is very accurate. If you are graphing a device that changes frequently, a snapshot once every few minutes will not give as accurate details as a graph that maps every change in value over time. A great example is measuring watts from a current measuring device, with BDGraphing or Jon's, you take a snapshot once every 5 minutes or so, but a lot can go on in the interim.
That's not strictly true. With Jon's pi you can configure database entries on device change as well as at intervals. It is incredibly configurable.

I used and relied on BD's script and really liked it. As a substitute I really like the ease of Shill's approach and the power and flexibility of Jon's is undeniable. I'm sure I will find use for both.HS4 Pro, 4.2.19.16 Windows 10 pro, Supermicro LP Xeon
