===== Lowcost Visualization Froeling Pellet P4 / S3200 =====

//[[froeling@dipper.info|Michael Dipper]] 26.12.2014//

My Pellet heating Fröling P4 was installed August 2011. 
Some information as well as online visualization can be found below.

==== Old Online Statistics ====

Initially I used a combination of a small self made perl script and [[http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/|RRD]] for
graphical visualization of my Pellet P4's system status. The advantage of this soluton is its incredible simplicity. It is also
very safe and secure since the Lambdatronic logging port is used which allows no changes to the P4 system by design.

If you want to play around with the scripts, you are free to download them [[installation|in the installation section]].

However, in favour of more functionality I have switched to [[https://github.com/horchi/linux-p4d|linux-p4d]] in 2014 and these old scripts
are no longer maintained and kept here for reference only.

==== Current Online Statistics ====

My [[http://dipper.info/froeling-p4d/|online statistics]] are gathered directly from the Lambdatronic's configuration port using
[[https://github.com/horchi/linux-p4d|linux-p4d]]
