Storage Control Mode selector for Solis Hybrid profile & write_holding_register query #227

Open stevebuk1 opened 6 days ago

stevebuk1 commented 6 days ago

I'm currently updating Pv_opt to interface to your new Solarman repo using a Solis inverter.

It was originally written for StephenHuberts Solarman but writes to the modbus registers were never enabled. Pv_opt runs in Appdaemon so uses code along the following lines:

data = {"register": address, "value": value}
self.host.call_service("solarman/write_holding_register", **data)

I'm trying a simple write to the start time minutes register at 43144 but its not being reflected in the entity that reports the value. Setting the value on the inverter screen does update the entity, so its not a read issue.

I've been looking at closed issues and see that along with the register number and the value to be written, there also needs to be a "device" set as well? If that isnt set, will that cause the issue? If so, where can I look it up from to use in an AppDaemon app?

Note, I'm doing the PV_opt update on behalf of another user and I don't run Solarman myself, so am not able to easily try out different device settings, hence this query.

You need to know device id, you can discover it for example by trying to run the action from developer tools (you select the device and then click on the GO TO YAML MODE button):

action: solarman.write_holding_register
data:
  wait_for_attempts: 30
  device: 68cc2dc7f6d70d4742dca1d660cba099
  register: 43144
  value: 1

But after thinking about it some more I really think that the best approach for you will be to rather use built-in HA action with entity as target (with this you just need to know name of the device assigned during configuration. it's "inverter" in following example):

action: time.set_value
target:
  entity_id: time.inverter_timed_charge_start
data:
  time: "06:30:00"
stevebuk1 commented 5 days ago

Thanks for your support and quick responses.

Agreed for time registers, but hasn't gone down that route as still need to write to the Solis storage control register, which in solis_hybrid.yaml is a sensor and uses a modbus address which is read only.

Would it be simple to setup an entity to write to 43110 that uses the same types? I think I'd need to use select rather than number?

Hi David, thanks, setting wait_for_attempts to 30 worked a treat.

solis_energy_storage_ctrl

Are those bits mutually exclusive or do you need to control each individually?

stevebuk1 commented 5 days ago

Individually, but there's only about 8 combinations. There are four hex codes already in Solis_hybrid.yaml on the read-only sensor, so replicating those four is fine.

feat: Add Storage Control Mode to solis_hybrid

stevebuk1 commented 5 days ago

Thanks, that looks great.

I assume I can edit the keys to match the values for the read-only register already defined, and add a few more for other combinations of bits that I need?

This just depends on whether the two registers work the same, and the docs I have only describe the first four bits.

The best approach would be to first try to read the register using integration actions (and maybe try to switch the mode in the inverter and repeat,..) and see if it matches the read-only register or rather just what's in the docs.

stevebuk1 commented 5 days ago

It's ok, I have the full bit definition.

Pyinthesky99 commented 3 days ago

@stevebuk1 has done a lot of work on this and come up with this modified solis_hybrid.yaml which generates an entity select.solis_storage_control_mode
solis_hybrid.yaml.txt I have added the entity to a dashboard and if I change the setting Run/Stop on the timings page of the inverter via the front buttons, this is reflected by the entities toggling between Time of Use and Self Use. Unfortunately, if change, for example, from Time of use in the entity select.solis_storage_control_mode on my Dashboard to Self Use it doesn't change Run/Stop on the Inverter, the selected mode in the select entity just reverts, after a second or two, back to Time of Use.

Steve thinks the answer may be in select.py somewhere but this is all very different from Stephan's original Solarman.

Any ideas where to look or how to debug what is happening David? TIA

davidrapan commented 2 days ago

Hi, just turn on debug logging and try to switch the value and log should show what's wrong.

Pyinthesky99 commented 2 days ago

Hi David Thanks for the suggestion, this is the log..

davidrapan commented 2 days ago

response: 1 means that writing was successful.

Let's leave out what says HA entity.. what about the settings of inverter device itself? Is the change somehow reflected there?

Pyinthesky99 commented 2 days ago

If I select 'Time of Use' in HA the inverter doesn't move off Stop (Self Use) as reflected by the first Entity below. A Fraction of a second after the snip, the select entity reverts to Self Use.

First Snip image

Second snip image

Just out of curiosity, does Pysolarman have any say in any of this?

davidrapan commented 2 days ago

I was talking about settings directly on the device and how switching the value affects that?

Pyinthesky99 commented 2 days ago

Sorry, If I change Run/Stop in the Inverter, by the buttons, both the entities select.solis_storage_control_mode and sensor.solis_storage_control_mode change accordingly to Time of Use and Self Use on the Dashboard. It just doesn't work the other way, Dashboard to Inverter.

davidrapan commented 1 day ago

And the other way around? Because debug log from he writing says that the inverter confirmed the change so it had to do something...

Pyinthesky99 commented 1 day ago

Interesting, don't know what the inverter confirmed but according to the Inverter Panel nothing changed.

Just tried writing register 43110 from 'Actions' with the same result, response 1 in the log but no change on the inverter panel.

davidrapan commented 1 day ago

Did you guys also tried to set the value using write_holding_register action?

Other than that it could really only mean that you are trying to set incorrect value (even so the inverter accepts it???) or some problem on the inverter side..

Anyway what that 6 bit means?

Pyinthesky99 commented 1 day ago

Hi David, Just now tried write_holding_register (Function Code 6) with the same result, a tick but nothing changed on Inverter.

So what could be the difference? We can write timings but not the mode, puzzling.

davidrapan commented 1 day ago

And what that 6 bit means?

stevebuk1 commented 1 day ago

Hi,

Bit definitions of 43110 are: Bit 0 = Self Use mode Bit 1 = Timed Charge/Discharge Bit 2 = Off Grid Mode Bit 3 = Battery Wake Bit 4 = Backup Mode Bit 5 = Allow Grid Charging Bit 6 = Feed in Priority Mode

The integration I use (https://github.com/wills106/homeassistant-solax-modbus) to control the Solis inverter provides a "select" entity to control the inverter, valid codes are here:

https://homeassistant-solax-modbus.readthedocs.io/en/latest/solis-operation-modes/

What we are trying to do is to establish the same via Solarman. All of the inverter side of things is fully tested

Note: Pv_Opt uses 35d and 49d only.

stevebuk1 commented 1 day ago

Thought I'd add a brief screengrab from Pv_opt (https://github.com/fboundy/pv_opt) which currently interfaces with the Solax integration as quoted in the previous post and also a 2nd Solis Integration https://github.com/fboundy/ha_solis_modbus where you will find a similar bit description in the README.md for register 43110.

Great, thanks for the explanation. 😉

Did you guys tried all the possible combination to see if all of them doesn't work (or maybe some does)?

And small note: If you get successful response to the writing that just simply means that register you are trying to write into is allowed and the value is allowed and doesn't say much about the operation itself.
