In regard to the 2448 Energy Display, it would be nice to be able to either:
- Read and test (in ISY programs) the values of Watts Now, Avg $/mo, and Avg kWh/mo for each of the three iMeters. At the very least to log them and include them in a notification message, OR
- Better yet, be able to use extended variables in ISY to gather and calculate the averages from the Display, or several iMeters seperately, and them use them as above.
An example: We have a second fridge downstairs that is seldom used (opened less often than the one in the kitchen). We are on time of day metering with PG&E (much higher kWh cost from 12n to 6pm). I would like to calculate the average cost per month correctly, for each period, and maybe experiment with turning that fridge off with a relay module from 12n-6p (except if a motion detector sees it being opened or an internal temperature sensor sees it getting warm). Either option above could provide the data to do this in ISY.
