Request ability to disable Bluetooth access to Inverter via API and subsequently via Homeassistant #9

It would be nice to be able to switch Bluetooth off and back on via the local API if required.

Currently, you have to temporarily disconnect the power to the inverter or temporarily switch off your wifi to reactivate Bluetooth when required, which is rather inconvenient.

It would therefore be nice to be able to do this via the local API and from Home Assistant.

After all, you don't want to leave Bluetooth permanently active so as not to leave a playground open for third parties.

Dear all, I would like to take this opportunity to briefly describe my experiences. I was very pleased to convince my neighbor to buy a plug-in solar device. Of course, he also bought an AP System EZ1. As luck would have it, I've just received a text message from him saying “hey, I've just dialed into your inverter via bluetooth.” If my neighbor can do it, what are strangers capable of?

I would therefore like to support this request.

@SonnenladenGmbH is here any progress in communication with AP Systems on this Topic?

We really need this to change urgently, as this is a massive security concern when everyone can change output settings on foreign EZ1 Inverters.
