Teddy Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 I have installed a Brultech ECM-1240 and so far have not been successful to pull the data into the ISY. I am using a wireless connection from the ECM to an Etherbee adapter (XBee to Ethernet) and the configuration with the EtherX Configuration Software is set to: Local IP (Static) 10.0.1.25, Port 10003 Operation mode is set to "Server" In the UD Admin Console, I enabled the Electricty Meter and set the URL to http://10.0.1.25:10003 with a poll interval of 60 seconds No data come across with these settings. Opening up the event viewer, I get the following messages every minute: QUOTE 2009/11/29 08:15:25 : MOD-EM-BRULTECH: Connecting to http://10.0.1.25:10003 2009/11/29 08:15:26 : MOD-EM-BRULTECH: Bad Response 53[0xFE], 0[0xFF], 50[0x01] UNQUOTE I am running 2.7.7 Alpha which I installed on September 9th 2009. Can you offer any advice ? Thanks Teddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RatRanch Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Hi Teddy, If your ECM-1240 is running with default settings, you'll want to set the ISY to access port 8084, not 10003. Try: http://10.0.1.25:8084 -Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teddy Posted November 29, 2009 Author Share Posted November 29, 2009 Hi Jim, Thanks for your quick response. Yes, this works. Needed to change the port on both the Etherbee server and in the ISY configuration. Teddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cslee Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I want to try this. Any chance I can get a developer brultech module plugin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cslee Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 I'm trying to get Brultech ECM1240 EngineG to forward data to ISY99-i. According to Brultech the EngineG will forward the same data it receives from the ECM1240. I configure the ISY-99i IP and port 8084 at the EngineG software and the IP of the PC running EngineG software and port 8084 in the ISY99i. But the ISY-99i just complains it cannot find Bultech Enery Meter, does anyone knows what to do ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can't do both at the same time (at least not that I'm aware of). The Brultech engine and the ISY require different modes. The ISY expects the ECM1240 to be acting like a server and it polls the ECM1240 at a fixed (specified by you) interval. The Brultech Engine expects the ECM1240 to be a client and send data to the engine at a fixed interval. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cslee Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 I'm actually running the Brultech Software on a PC. This software receives broadcast from the ECM1240 hardware. It also rebroadcast the data. But it also records everything to it's internal database. Let me ask Brultech if ISY can poll the database. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameslitton Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 I am using a wireless connection from the ECM to an Etherbee adapter (XBee to Ethernet) and the configuration with the EtherX Configuration Software is set to: I am about to purchase an ECM-1220/40 and want to understand Teddy's setup. Does this configuration require the ECM data to be fed to a PC or is the data fed to the ISY99i directly? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way the the ISY and the ECM work together is if the ISY queries the ECM directly for the data. No PC is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burakk Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 For those of you that want to use the ECM Monitor software to forward information to Google, and want to access data on ISY as well, you can do it by enabling the data forward feature of the ECM monitor software on your PC. In the ECM monitor software, go to data forward menu, and choose the home controller plugin. Then in the TCP/IP tab, use the bottom section, enter the port number you want to use, and enable the connection. In ISY, enter the IP address of the PC that is running the ECM monitor software and the port number as server URL. http://10.0.0.13:8084 format. Set the polling interval and ISY should be able to poll the database stored on the PC. Hope this helps.

mathewbeall Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Hi Burrakk - did you ever get this to work below? I am trying this exact thing and ISY is suggesting that it can't be done - I do get "Read Acknowledge Errors" in the logs... Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddejager Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I'm also intersted in knowing if the configuration with the PC functioning as a server for the ISY works correctly. I'm getting an ECM-1240 and want to both look at the historical data on my PC, but be able to see the current information from programs in the ISY. Can Universal Devices at least let us know if this should work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
