solarsynk data

[harwoodrd]

All, i have set up (obviously incorrectly) the Device, and when i go to log its getting the data, however when it tries to update the entities it fails, the log script suggested adding a helper but that shows null, can anyone point me in the right direction please, it seems so close as i can physically see the data in the log but it is just not reaching the entities...Thanks in advance Part of the log:- Reading settings entity -> solarsynk_0000000_inverter_settings

Helper entity input_text.solarsynk_0000000_inverter_settings has no value. Therefore no inverter setting will be sent for change

I had a similar issue when I added the Long-lived access token under yaml, by updating it in the GUI it worked.

Long-lived access token In Home-Assistant click your name at the bottom Select Security Tab Scroll to Long-Lived Access Tokens Click Create Token and call it SolarSynk Copy the code.

Go to solarsynk Add-On and put it in the configuration -->

Thank you very much for trying to assist however that did not work either, it is so frustrating to see the data you want in the log but it wont write it to the entitity, someone sugested setting up a helper but i dont know its correct format. regards Richard

If SolarSynk can access your Home Assistant in the logs you will see it tells you to set up a helper called input_text.solarsynk_1234567890_inverter_settings where 1234567890 is your serial number

If you do not get that far then SolarSynk cannot access Home Assistant. So would check:

IP address is correct with no spaces in front or after The port is correct You have HTTPS unticked And renew the Long-Lived Access Token

And confirm you are using SolarSynk Current version: 2.1.14

Just to clarify the message letting you know to create the helper entity is optional its not a critical error and you dont have to create it. Its only necessary if you want to send inverter settings back to the inverter. So in short it does not have anything to do with your problem.

If the values are showing then at least the part where its fetching from the sunsynk cloud is working.

If you have a way for me to remotely log into your system I will be happy to assist. Else perhaps add a screenshot of the configuration (With the serial removed offcoarse)

Thank you so much. It's me being 75. And knowing just enough to be dangerous but not enough to work it all out..when I added cards all was ok and message in log was not important. Thank you again for a great add on regards Richard Harwood --Sent from my Android phone with GMX Mail. Please excuse my brevity.On 02/05/2024, 18:28 Martin Viljoen @.***> wrote:

Good day

I'm new to home assistant I've tried everything to fix this issue but with no luck can you kindly assist: see the error below

Helper entity input_text.solarsynk_000000000_inverter_settings has no value. Therefore no inverter setting will be sent for change.

Hi there.

Its not an error. If you set the entity with a valid jason string it will send that value to the inverter and then clear it out again.

There after you will get the same message.

It just tells you that there are no messages to be sent.

You can safley ignore it.

Closing for now, the message below means its setup correctly.
