possible to add services like ac-charger and dc-system? #50

Closed kr0815 closed 11 months ago

I tuned my Victron ESS with

No i want to have them in the Venus-GUI To get correct calculations of the house consumption

I guess i have to adapt services.yml?

Anybody did this before?

What is the right service to show up in the main GUI site - only very few are possible?

I think the best would be for my purpose a DC-System?

an additional small 300W-Inverter with better efficiency

pvinverter is the right service

an additional charger to load the batteries faster when there is much sun

https://github.com/victronenergy/venus/wiki/dbus#solar-chargers or https://github.com/victronenergy/venus/wiki/dbus#ac-chargers

Both are not defined in services.yml right now but can be added easily .

PVinverter would be AC, i think i need solarcharger?

But i don´t understand the whole system Example- i try to fake a genset it´s on DBus, i see it in Venus as a sensor, but i don´t see a Generator in the GUI? Is there a special product ID needed?

With this driver I just have experience with pvinverter, gridmeter and temperature.

I think you already got it working and push data into the right MQTT topics, right?

The only thing missing is the display in VRM Portal?

kr0815 commented 1 year ago

Yes, the Data is pushed in the right topic I tried vith various programs, but never got it showed up in the GUI

My problem: if the additional Battery-connected inverter pushes 300W to the house, Venus doesn´t calculate with that for house consumption

I need to "fake" a PV-Charger like in the attached Picture

Than you have to define a solar-charger in services.yml.
