Home Assistant integration not working next day
Hi, I've integrated iammeter into Home Assistant as per the tutorials.
First day working fine.
Second day 0 data. I can Ping the WEM3080 IP address, no issues there.
When I curl the IP address/monitorjson, it returns 401 Unauthorized.
Do I need to somehow add the authorization token for Home assistant?
I notice the OpenHAB integration requires the token Authorization=Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=.
Is this needed for Home Assistant too?
For offline problems, you may check whether the meter is always connected to the router. For the occasional data 0, you can refer to here: https://imeter.club/topic/77
- sensor:
- name: "Grid consumption energy (general tariff)"
unit_of_measurement: 'kWh'
device_class: energy
state_class: total_increasing
state: >-
{% if states('sensor.iammeter1_importenergy') in ['unavailable', 'unknown', 'none', 0] %}
{{
states('sensor.grid_consumption_energy_general_tariff')|float
}}
{% elif states('sensor.iammeter1_importenergy')|float < states('sensor.grid_consumption_energy_general_tariff')|float %}
{{
states('sensor.grid_consumption_energy_general_tariff')|float
}}
{% else %}
{{
states('sensor.iammeter1_importenergy')|float
}}
{% endif %}
Sorry forgot to attach this error log for Problem #2

Thanks. After some further poking around, I found 2 issues in thread highlighted to laoliu.
Basically 0 data because WEM3080 went into AP mode, because power was lost and WIFI router boots up slower and hence no WIFI yet.
Yes thank you. I have confirmed when it is working, the token is being sent.
Since then, I still have 2 problems:
Problem #1. When there is blackout and power comes back on, WEM3080 powers up before WIFI is available and seems to go into 'access point' mode where SSID is imeter-9xxxxxxxx. Then, WIFI comes back, but it's too late, WEM3080 is in access point mode and doesn't connect to WIFI.
To remedy this, I have to manually disconnect power from WEM3080 and reconnect power. Is this normal?
Problem #2. When this happens, HA cannot find WEM3080, which is normal. I get the following error below from HA error log.
But HA does not continue to poll for WEM3080, it gives up. Because even after WEM3080 comes back on WIFI, HA does not connect to it.
HA must be restarted manually to resume connection to WEM3080. Can this be fixed somehow?
You can look at the log of your homeassistant, or provide more detailed data, which data has become 0, determine whether it is 0 or the device is offline, then what is the historical curve? To help you figure out what the problem is
"I notice the OpenHAB integration requires the token Authorization=Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=."
Yes, it is the basic auth with
user name: admin
pwd: admin
Just input such parameters in the prompt of the browser and you will get the return of monitorjson in the browser.
The Home assistant also needs to achieve such basic auth.
But in my opinion, we have already implemented this basic auth in the integration of IAMMETER, otherwise, no data will be returned.
