Hi Bob!
I’m about to start another Australian 3-phase install and tested my IotaWatt. It functions as expected, but I get a (very) rapid red LED, with no LED when I make web requests. The message log is below. Note “Real TIme Clock is not initialised”. You’ll see I then soft restarted and I get the normal pulsing red light.
I tested this on another IotaWatt (firmware 02_03_16) and got the same result, except the rapid red LED remains even after soft restart. These units are about 1.0 years old and 0.5 years old respectively.
I’ve tried: another power supply, deletelog=all command, check SD cards in a laptop, multiple soft restarts.
Perhaps the clock battery gone?
My question: Can I safely install these units, since they seem to operate ok?
Thanks,
Brett
Ps. This install will have complete circuit and supply CT coverage with a upstream 3 phase utility meter, so I will be able to cross-check results. It will be derived 3 phase.
