Connection with eSolar AIO3 #163

Closed hmook closed 2 years ago

hmook commented 3 years ago

Hi is it posible to connect with my eSolar AIO3 interface? When I try to connect with my SAJ inverter which is connected via eSolar AIO3. The Homey App gives me an error message telling me I've entered a wrong IP address.

For the WiFi D module, when the inverter isn't producing any energy, the local API goes offline. Perhaps the same goes for the AIO3 module. Was the inverter producing energy when you tried setting up the device?

Does this work with the latest version?

hmook commented 2 years ago

Sorry for the late reply, I’ll try to connect again later to see if I am able to connect when producing power.

hmook commented 2 years ago

No seems like also when producing power I cannot connect.

hmook commented 2 years ago

Kinda found the issue. The AIO3 module doesnt create a webserver to read out locally. Power data is directly pushed to the eSolar Portal at https://fop.saj-electric.com/ . So I cannot connect to the unit locally but have to use the external API. Is this possible in this HomeyApp?

DiedB commented 2 years ago

The external API is not meant for public use. While it would technically be possible, building and supporting it is difficult, especially because I don't have an account myself.
