Recording of energy usage data on M30 to MicroSD - sc00bs - 02-12-2025
Hi Everyone
Thank you to Kincony for the great product, I have a few questions, if anyone can help me please? :-)
Any suggestions as to what is the best way to set up the M30 for recording usage data to the microsd as a standalone unit?
There will be no internet access for the unit while it is monitoring the energy usage and I would like to be able to record the usage with time stamps and be able to review it once the installation is complete.
I have various sizes of CT Clamps (30,60 & 100A) so need to be able to specify the size of the clamp installed per port and would also like a WebUi to check that everything is working and set times etc if necessary.
I have been investigating using ESPHome but assume that I could use Arduino IDE as well to do this, what would you recommend and do you have any sample code I could use?
I have been struggling to work out the pinouts for the Microsd card, can you tell me if these are the correct pinouts?
sd_card:
cs_pin: GPIO5 # Adjust CS pin based on your hardware
spi_id: sd_spi
spi:
clk_pin: GPIO18
mosi_pin: GPIO23
miso_pin: GPIO19
I have attached a copy of the ESPZHome YAML code I have been working on.
All suggestions welcome.

M30 SD card pin define as these:
SPI BUS:
SCK:14
MOSI:15
MISO:2
now ESPHome not support SD card. You can write your own arduino code for that.

Thank you for your reply,
Do you have a sample Arduino IDE code for that perhaps?
I am not a programmer so is easier if I can build on something that already exists.

Thank you for the assistance, is there any specific model of ESP32 I should use in Arduino IDE when I want to upload the code

you can chose NodeMcu-32S or ESP32 device.
