Reset accumulated meter in script

[morten23]

Hi

I'm looking for a way to reset accumulated meter values trough a script. I tried just setting the device value to 0 but the devices keep updating it back to its original value. I could not find any function in the documentation for resetting the accumulated meter values. Has anyone done this in a script? I could set it up in an event but it is a lot of devices and scripting is so much easier.

Which specific device? I have some zwave ones where I do this by setting a zwave parameter from scripts/events, but the device has to support that.

Cheers

Hi Morten,

Looking at their manuals, I don't see any zwave parameters that allow you to reset those values. You'll likely have to create an event with the Z-Wave Action called Reset Meter Accumulations and then call the event from your script. There may be a way to make a call to the zwave plugin, but I don't believe the details on whether that's possible or how to do it are published.

Cheers
Al

Hi

Yes I started down that path today. So I call that event from my script after writing all values to my SQL database. Not the best way to do it but it seems to work. I just have to remember to add new devices to the event manually.
