voltronic_ESP8266_MQTT

Home Assistant addon using MQTT to get data from Voltronic Solar Inverters using ESP8266

This project is intended to interface with the Voltronics 'InfiniSolar V' Solar inverters https://voltronicpower.com/en-US/Product/Detail/InfiniSolar-V-1K-5K, sold in India by Flin Energy https://flinenergy.com/solar_inverters/_FlinInfini_Lite_Smart_Hybrid_Inverter.

This inverter follows protocol version 1.8 that starts with ^ (^P005PI) unlike previous starting with Q (QPI).

Comman Format: ^TnnnXXXX,XXXX,XXXX,,

Character Description Remark

^ Start bit

T Type P: PC Query command, S: Set command, D: Device Response

nnn Data length Include CRC and ending character, except"^Tnnn"

XXXXX Data If the data is reserved, they will be filled nothing,
so you would see double "," connected.

, Seperator Separate each data, please use "," to recognize the length of data. If double "," continuing, that means this data is reserved.

Two byte of CRC result, the first byte is high 8 bits, second byte is low 8 bits. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Before compiling be sure to change the SSID, password, aqnd MQTT server IP in include/passwd.h The binaries can be built by importing the project in PlatformIO editor or Arduino.
