IoTaWatt Binding

This binding integrates IoTaWatt™ Open WiFi Electric Power Monitor into openHAB.

Limitations of this version:

• No authentication support

Supported Things

The IoTaWatt binding supports one Thing called iotawatt.

Discovery

The binding does not auto-discover the IoTaWatt device.

Thing Configuration

IoTaWatt Thing Configuration

Name	Type	Description	Default	Required	Advanced
hostname	text	Hostname or IP address of the device	N/A	yes	no
refreshInterval	integer	Interval the device is polled in sec.	10	no	no
requestTimeout	long	The request timeout to call the device in sec.	10	no	no

Channels

The binding detects configured inputs and outputs and creates channels for them.
