Hi, am having a bit of trouble getting pachube to accept my watts stream from a current cost classic. I am using this string

dbzoo.livebox.CurrentCost:ch.1:xAPBSC.event:text

but its not registering, although the temp one is using this

dbzoo.livebox.CurrentCost:temp:xAPBSC.event:text

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks

Wiki notes vs Current release disconnect

There is currently a disconnect between wiki notes and firmware release - The notes reflect the new release which isn't out yet.

The endpoint in firmware 252 is "dbzoo.livebox.CurrentCost:ch1"

An XAP packets will look like this if you fire up the xFxViewer or use xap-snoop.

    xAP-header     
    {     
    v=12     
    hop=1     
    uid=FF00DC01     
    class=xAPBSC.event     
    source=dbzoo.livebox.CurrentCost:ch1     
    }     
    input.state     
    {     
    state=on     
    text=10597     
    }     

So you need to encode ---  dbzoo.livebox.CurrentCost:ch1:xAPBSC.event:text

This historical wiki page has the info you need.
