Edit im running V118 btw is there any reason to update to v120?

There is no reason to update to v120

The submission from data to variables > v5 is not build in measureit.

If you want to add some data you can edit the grabber file on line 537 and add the v7 parameter.

url = 'https://pvoutput.org/service/r2/addstatus.jsp?key='+sensor_settings[sensor]['pvoutput_api']+'&sid='+str(sensor_settings[sensor]['pvoutput_id'])+'&d='+sensors[sensor]['pvoutput_watt_sum']['day']+'&t='+sensors[sensor]['pvoutput_watt_sum']['time']+'&'+type+'='+str(sum)+'&v5='+str(tmpr);

Why do you want to add data to v7?

I was looking to put my hot water system consumption into V7 as i did not want to include it into the main consumption.
I have tried out the PVoutput integration service and that has allowed me to do what i want. albeit not as nice with the gui

If you have multiple clamps you can submit each clamp as a single sensor to PVOutput.

Just set the PVOutput ID in th e sensor settings
