Capacity grid #109

Open pittbull opened 1 year ago

pittbull commented 1 year ago

Hi. I've implemented your nodered "Capacity part of grid tariff", and to me the reduction part does not seem to work. I am unable to confirm if a device is actually turned off and reset when requested.

This is what was logged during last night and at least for the vvb I cannot find that it has turn off or on at the times mentioned in the actions. Are you able to spot if I have done something wrong on my part?

Looks like 4 actions was taken, and then reset an hour later.

Indeed they were. Problem was found in my head.

A follow-up question: Will the state of devices turned off be kept after reboot or restarts of nodered?

ottopaulsen commented 1 year ago

No, when you reboot you have to start over again. I am not sure what happens if you set context storage to file. Maybe it is restored then, but I guess it is not perfectly handled.
