Hi, I was wondering if its possible to connect the segmeter to an Centos 5.5 linux box.

I Have one running 24 hours a day as my mailserver and stuff, can i connect the segmeter and still use the api’s and stuff to upload the data from the segmeter. ?

If so, can you give me some information how to do this ?

Thanks

Got it !

Easy if you know howto… 

using an serial > usb adapter from the arduino pro to the usbport of the centos box …

Install lua on the linux box

yum -y install lua\*

next download ser2net from sourceforge , compile it  and create a file /etc/ser2net.conf including a line 2000:raw:0:/dev/ttyUSB0:38400

run ser2net ( check if everything works by telnetting to localhost 2000 , watch for data , after that  disconnect the telnet session )

next copy aiko_configuration.lua  and  aiko_gateway.lua ( from git ) to the /root folder on the linux box… and run ./aiko_gateway.lua from this folder

create a site in smartenergygroups and start discovering…

Great stuff, and congratulations Hennie!
