Eco-Eye/emoncms/iphone

I've recently managed to get my Eco-Eye pv monitor working with a local emoncms install and as I have used these forums to trawl for information I thought I would share the results.  You can see it working at http://www.willyweb.co.uk  (nothing dodgy, my son's name is William).  I've put on there as much how to instructions as I can remember and any customised emoncms code just in case anyone wants to use it.  Any comments or improvements welcome.  PS sometimes it needs an F5 to kick it into life :-)

I've added some iphone specific pages so that it looks like an iphone app when viewed on an iphone

Looks good. Have you tweaked the page display refresh rate?

You might like to try the centre zero dial for import/export display, which is included in the emoncms distribution (class="centredial"). A sample is attached.

Cheers. Yes I changed the refresh rate to 4 secs on common.js.

I did look at the centre dial but what I was after was a dial that was blindingly obvious to the wife so I wanted it so that you could see at a glance what was going on (bright red, turn something off, bright green put the washing machine on).

My son had an old itouch with a slight crack in the screen, so I've bluetacked that to the kitchen wall with the browser just zoomed in on that dial and we use that as the user display.
