Hi, I have created a pulse counter to indicate my power useage of an appliance. The counter works but it does not increment the pulses in a total count. Only counts on the first pulse. It does not accumulate the total: eg 0+1=1:1+1=2, etc. How can this be corrected? I need to get a total count over a period of say 24 hours.
This is my YAML file.
