An easy-to-use YAML-based integration for several Ampere.Storage.Pro inverters for Home Assistant.

There are two ways to read the data from an Ampere.Storage.Pro. Both options are explained here.

• Variant 1: Via Modbus
• Variant 2: Via Rest (the Ampere.IQ Box is required here)

Requirements:

• HomeAssistant with Visual Studio Server or File Editor Addon
• Ip addresses of inverter and IQ box (optional)

Variant 1:

The inverter can be read out via Modbus TCP (port 502). Add or update the values from secrets.yaml to your Home Assistant.

Variant 2:

The Ampere.IQ Box can be read out via a REST interface. The following placeholders must be replaced in the rest_ampere_storage_pro.yaml file:

• [IP]: Ip address of the Ampere.IQ Box
• [SN]: Serial number of the inverter. This can be read out using this REST URL: http://[IP]/rest/things

Integrate into HomeAssistant

Copy the YAML file of the selected variant into the "integrations" directory.

Include "modbus_sungrow.yaml" by adding the follwing lines to your "configuration.yaml":

homeassistant:
  packages: !include_dir_named integrations

Now check your configuration (Developer Tools -> "check configuration" and perform a restart. The entries will then be available.
