Multiple inverters support

mhvis commented 8 years ago

Small adjustments are needed for this.

Please can you help to explain the small change how to pull information from two inverters on the same network. What do you mean by running the Inverter class twice? And will both inverter data added to the same System ID on PVoutput?

(Excerpt from email conversation:)

I was planning to implement this myself. That is probably the easiest since I have the best understanding of the code. My idea for what I want to implement for multiple inverter support is the following:

In solar_uploader.ini you can specify all inverters by their serial number (for my inverter that is 'DW413B8080').
For each inverter you can specify the PVOutput system ID (and possibly API key) to use for uploading the data (in solar_uploader.ini).
For inverters that have the same PVOutput system ID, the data will be accumulated or averaged (depending on the kind of data).

Any remarks/tips on this idea are welcome.

Specifying an inverter should also be possible using (static) IP
