Not sure but if you export the data and it's correct then i'd have to say it's something iGoogle server side.

Yes exactly. 2.4ghz doesn't travel well through metal boxes.

Which, of course, raises the question of why the TED MTUs use PLC transmission. It's a pretty poor choice. Why not Zigbee or hardwired? (Well, Zigbee would be out if the MTU is inside the panel, but mine aren't.)

I'm pretty sure the system won't meet code if there are low voltage wires coming out of the breaker panel.  I think this has been gone over many times on here, I suspect folks from TED are tired of repeating it.   The radio link might work, but it might also have interference problems.

Switch to 240v view in system layout tap. If your voltage is around 208v then yes you're on 2phase from 3phase power.

Yes, but the 5th sub-panel will need to be isolated with a filter from the rest.

A second way to identify a load, using I suspect much of your current "load profile" logic, is to allow the user to click or lasso a peak or a plateau on the graph, and enter the name of the device that the user feels is causing the peak or the plateau.

Use your routers configuration utility and look for "Local network" and then "DHCP Client Table". That should show all the IP addresses assigned to the devices on your LAN.
My Cisco Router address is 192.168.1.1 and the TED5000 has been assigned 192.168.1.104  (forth device on my LAN which uses a starting address of 192.168.1.100)
Your TED's IP addresses will be different but I had to use this method to install the TED and configure it when the installation software could not locate it.


Good Luck --

So Peter you're saying that the Sunpower system isn't as great as it looks. I'm sorry to hear that. I was hoping someday we would see something for the TED similar to the Sunpower system. Thanks for the reply and I'm sorry if I side tracked this topic.

The sensor would be for devices using over 100 wats and would report turned-on and turned-off events. Events would be placed on the live usage graphs.  Wattage would not need to be sensed by this suggested device other than to detect when the device exceeded the threashold on wattage or fell below the threshold off wattage.
The signals would be device id and turned-on, turned-off, and, periodically, continues-on and continues-off.

Make a device similar to the "kill-a-watt", to be placed in between the outlet and the load, that communicates to the gateway and identifies the load. This would be positive identification of larger loads like the kitchen stove or electric heater or microwave or hair dryer or coffee maker or toaster or dish washer or clothes dryer. This would, in addition, position you to allow the user to control the load from the interface. This has many many benefits, including time shifting of loads or automatic turning off the stove your elderly parent left on.

Alternately, or in addition, be able to add smaller CTs into the MTU where a circuit is primarily for a single device like ac or stove. This approach has less to recommend it, but maybe also has a place for devices that do not have a 120v plug.

I see that this, the horizontal grid line, is implemented in the current version. Good.
The color gradient is still not my preference. Note that the iGoogle gadget does not use color gradients.
