Plugin for TED (The Energy Detective) 5000-Series

Okay thanks, I'll let you know when I start that project.

How reliable have you all found the plugin/TED combo to be? for me, it seems to be hanging pretty frequently.

I thought I had the latest version of the plugin, 1.04, but apparently I have 1.02. I looked at the website and it does not appear available for download?

Hey Ham,

You can download the latest version here: https://vulture.lagaros.com/IndigoPlugins/TED5000/TED5000.indigoPlugin_1.0.5.zip

Hi Nick,

Loaded 1.05 and am still getting a lot of errors. Put it into debug:

Any thoughts? Am I missing something?

Thanks,

You sure about that ip address of the TED unit? Seems like it is not communicating at all.

After a long delay of hoping it would work better, I contacted the manufacturer and went through the troubleshooting steps. It turns out the gateway is defective.

Are there any specific advantages to upgrading to the Ted Pro? I have to spend $90 so I may as well spend a few more to get the newer unit if it is better/more reliable.
