Hi,
I have a problem with utility meter, sometimes it counts slightly less production than it should, in June I had 3 situation like this. Look at the screenshot, first chart is source sensor (reading from pv inverter), second chart is utility meter based on this sensor. I don’t get why there is a gap on first chart and why utility meter decreases on second. I will try to look directly into database and post update if I find something.
I’m attaching two screenshots from database. Looks like this gap in graph is caused by sensor entity becoming unavailable, and because of that utility meter decreases, but how to stop this from happening?
Second screenshot:
Edit
There is periodically_resetting configuration variable for utility meter, but documentation says it should be enabled (what is default) if source sensor state resets to zero. This is my case, daily production reading from pv inverter resets to 0 every day. On The other hand documentation says that this variable, when disabled, helps avoiding loss of meter reading after source sensor becomes available after being unavailable, but it should be disabled only when source sensor never resets.
So what should I do?
