Hi, after update of integration from solarman my custom_configuration.yaml was removed. I thought a custom configuration should survive every update, neither be deleted nor overwritten. Can you please take a look, thank you.

@linuxdep and @rolandsteinmeyer do you mind discribing in few words how to load a custom_config.yaml file? I'm new to HA as a whole. I want to create a shorter interval. Guess I did it write

rolandsteinmeyer commented 1 year ago

custom_config.yaml is explained [here]: (https://github.com/StephanJoubert/home_assistant_solarman/blob/main/customization.md) But you can not change the request interval here. AFAIK the logger gets data from inverter every 1-2 minutes, so no sense to do more requests to the logger. If ypu need real-time ddata you need to add a seperate energy meter (e.g. shelly PM).

Or use a other RS485/Modbus communication applikation.
