Energy monitor system

Dear All,

I need some advices in my project

For a start i a have the CT sensor, Arduino Uno rev2 and the Wifi Shield integrated antenna.

I am considering to buy the EmonTx v3.4 since it comes with the integrated RF unit for radio signaling.
And as far as i understood i am going to need a NanodeRF as base to get data from the emonTx v3.4 and get my data online to te emoncms.org.

I have a budget that i cannot exceed. Is it possible in any way, to use my Wifi shield as a base in a way that i can get the data directly from the emonTx v3.4 and post my data on the emoncms.org also using my Wifi shield?

It is kind of an urgent i need to submit a progress report as soon as possible and if it is possible i will need to ship my components.

Awaiting your reply,
Thank you in advance,

Re: Energy monitor system

It needs an Arduino expert to answer this, but if your WiFi Shield will work with the emonTx Shield (and I think I am right when I say some do not), then an emonTx Shield without radio will do what you want.
I assume that you have your WIFI Shield working?

Re: Energy monitor system

1st thank you for replying

2nd i just found that there is a SEGmeter Arduino shield which is like the emontx shield but it has the capability to mount on it a zigbee board for wireless communication

Still i didn't read enough about it

When i do find an answer i will post it with my full project so i can help others

But in the mean time if by any chance there is an arduino expert please help me for faster results

Thank you again
