Wanted to install a new installation

Describe the bug Hi @Pho3niX90 ,

I have a new installation where I want to add this nice plugin. But I always get this error:

Here is the error log:

Looks like the same error in #49

Like you can see in the logs i've tried different IP's to be sure :-)

[Pho3niX90]

Will investigate the reason behind this. Will have to check how I can reproduce this without losing my data on my installation 😅

Super @Pho3niX90 !! Would it help to give you access to my test server? Can you contact me by mail, so I can share the credentials? --> Christoffel@me.com , or direct via Github, not sure if this is possible 😉

[Pho3niX90]

Also, if you enter the IP into a browser window, can you reach the inverters' web interface?

[cgilis]

Is something I cannot test right now, because it's on a remote location 🥲

@Pho3niX90 with VPN it worked the ip is 192.168.0.101

To be clear, the HA device trying to access the solis is on the same network right? Will send you an email for access.

That is correct!

@Pho3niX90 after updating the firmware of the Solis, the problem is fixed and is now visible in HA. Do you still want to check how you can fix it on older firmwares?

Aah perfect. I need to note it down, I remember reading that one of the firmwares did have a modbus comms issue.
