Utility Meter Help #65

Closed cdensel closed 2 weeks ago

cdensel commented 2 weeks ago

Hi,

Thanks for this project, I'm delighted to be able to "cut the cord" to SolisCloud and run everything locally. I've had the integration running locally for a week now, and I'm seeing some issues with the "Today" kWh values either resetting during day, or not resetting between days. This is messing up the energy dashboard with issues similar to those in issue #57

In the project description, it is recommend that we create Utility Meters to ensure our daily / monthly totals are measured correctly. Could someone please point me to the values I should be using in the daily meters?

The 3 entities I have been using in my Energy Dashboard are:

solis_s6_solis_today_energy_imported_from_grid solis_s6_solis_today_energy_fed_into_grid solis_s6_solis_pv_today_energy_generation

I would like to create a Daily Utility Meter for, say solis_s6_solis_today_energy_imported_from_grid. What sensor should I measure with the meter? Should I have "Periodically Resetting" on or off? And should "Sensor Always Available" be enabled?

Thanks for your help, Conor

This is more of a discussion than a bug
