and my inspiration:

local function padLeft(str, w)
  return string.rep(" ", w - #str) .. str
end

local function findPeripheral(_type)
  for _,name in pairs(peripheral.getNames()) do
	if peripheral.getType(name) == _type then
	  return peripheral.wrap(name)
	end
  end
end

local m = findPeripheral("monitor")
local mfsu = findPeripheral("mfsu")
local batbox = findPeripheral("batbox")

if not m then
  error("Cannot find monitor attached to this computer", 0)
end

if not mfsu and not batbox then
  error("Cannot find mfsu attached to this computer", 0)
end

m.setTextScale(0.5)

local w, h = m.getSize()
local total = 0

if mfsu then
  total = mfsu.getEUCapacity()
elseif batbox then
  total = batbox.getCapacity()
end
os.startTimer(1)

while true do
  local stored = 0
  if mfsu then
	stored = mfsu.getEUStored()
  elseif batbox then
	stored = batbox.getStored()
  end

  m.clear()
  m.setCursorPos(1, 2)
  m.setTextColour(colours.orange)
  m.write("Energy:")
  m.setTextColour(colours.white)
  m.write(padLeft(tostring(stored), w - 7))

  m.setCursorPos(1, 4)
  m.setTextColour(colours.orange)
  m.write("Total:")
  m.setTextColour(colours.white)
  m.write(padLeft(tostring(total), w - 6))

  local p = (w-2) * stored / total

  m.setBackgroundColour(colours.lightGrey)
  m.setCursorPos(2, 8)
  m.write(string.rep(" ", w-2))
  m.setBackgroundColour(colours.grey)
  m.setCursorPos(2, 8)
  m.write(string.rep(" ", p))
  m.setBackgroundColour(colours.black)

  os.pullEvent("timer")

So, the problem is that you're having an error? (sorry but I can't understand from previous posts)

mfsu:16:  attempt to call nil

KingofGamesYami, on 24 October 2016 - 10:10 PM said:

It looks like it should be correct. However, what happens if you use the findPeripheral function specified in the other script to wrap it instead?

local modem = peripheral.wrap("right")

local function padLeft(str, w)
  return string.rep(" ", w - #str) .. str
end

local function findPeripheral(_type)
  for _,name in pairs(peripheral.getNames()) do
	    if peripheral.getType(name) == _type then
		  return peripheral.wrap(name)
	    end
  end
end

local mfsu = findPeripheral("mfsu")

while true do

if not mfsu then
  error("Cannot find mfsu attached to this computer", 0)
end

if not modem then
  error("Cannot find modem attached to this computer", 0)
end

while true do
  local stored = 0
    stored = mfsu.getEUStored()
modem.transmit(7, 1, stored)
sleep(1)
end
end

Is this the same world?

mfsu=peripheral.wrap("left")

mfsu.getEUStored()

Try to do these steps: first of all open your computer near the mfsu, then type in "lua". After that type

mfsu=peripheral.wrap("left")

and then

mfsu.getEUStored()

Let's see what it does.

I finally find a solution !!

I try what you say but it was the same, so i replace mfsu.getEUStored() by mfsu.getStored() and it's working ^^' (for the moment), I can work now ! ^^ Thanks everyone !

Really? It isn't a method aviable for mfsus I think…
But if it works, well, great! I'm glad to hear that you've resolved the problem. You're welcome!
