Energy meter in Node Red not accessible

Hi,

I have a system with two energy meters (configured as AC Load) and a grid meter. In Node Red I cannot access the energy meter and the node indicates:

"There are no energy meter services available. Please check that a energy meter is connected or try a different node. "

All energy meters are of type ET340.

How can I get reading of the two energy meters into Node Red?


Thanks,

E.

You will have to see if there is a pallet available for them. They are not a victron product. It will be like if you are using the sonof kit or other integration. I think... I have not tried it

Hi @nam-erik,

how did you solve it? I also have two ET112 energy meters defined as "Grid" and "AC Loads" each one with his USB/RS485 converter.I can see both in the Energy meter list with his serial number but only one of them as a Victron Device "AC Loads". So therefore in Nodered I get exactly the same error message when I want to use the Grid node. You have any advice how to use both of them with all functions?
