Measuring behavior for total energy #1

Closed x-erik closed 3 years ago

x-erik commented 3 years ago

Homey adds all devices with energy measurements to a total in the Energy tab. This Smartgateway app measures the total energy used in the building, however as this is a device it will also add up the other measurements from other devices, resulting in a total on the Energy tab which is higher than the actual usage.

Should the setting "cumulative": true in the driver.compose.json be added? Or is this intentional?

More info on the setting can be found here: https://apps.developer.homey.app/the-basics/devices/energy#measuring-devices

Always difficult. Some people would like to know only the energy of the device and use other ways to calculate the total energy. I have no problems changing this now so I will update this.
