Workaround for Solarflow-BT-Manager #10

Hi Reinhard.

I just bought an implemented my Solarflow PV Hub 2000 and AB 2000 for my house. Zendure App is fully configured. Now I would like to use your Solarflow Control and Statuspage part. Unfortunately I am currently 3 hours away from my house but have remote access via vpn tunnel. Given that I am not able to reconfigure the PV Hub via bluetooth. I did a Wireshark sniff an can see the PV Hub sending it's MQTT packages to mqtteu.zen-iot.com as I did the initial setup an configuration to Germany. So while thinking about how I could re-configre it remotely, while not being onsite, I came up with the idea to just fake the dns entry of "mqtteu.zen-iot.com" on my local dns server (leveraged also by my PB Hub) pointing to my local Mosquitto mqqt server. Did somebody ever tried/tested this? Should this work with your control tool? I will test this tomorrow, when I will have more time. Feedback on "faking" DNS is appreceated. Best Oliver

Update: Seems to be working so far. Just had the chance to set a DNS record of "mqtt.zen-iot.com" pointing to my local mqtt server and disconnected my internet connection so that the PV Hub has to re-establish the connection. After this can see the mqtt messages flying in. At the same time my PV Hub is "Offline" in the Zendure App under My devices.

Yes, that will work seamlessly. This split-dns was also my initial setup without changes on the hub side. But since not everyone is able to operate their own DNS I took the generic approach within the hub’s config.

Hello @olomberg,

as you have the hub2k for some days now, did you manage to have sf-control working with it? I am currently struggeling. Maybe you have an idea what I forgot to do?

Hallo, ich hoffe hier kann man mir helfen. Ich habe den Hub1200 offline genommen. Musste eine Änderung in dem Skript vornehmen:

Da es immer zu einer Fehlermeldung: " File "/zendure/solarflow-bt-manager/src/solarflow-bt-manager.py", line 43, in local_mqtt_connect client = mqtt_client.Client(mqttclient.CallbackAPIVersion.VERSION1, client id) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ AttributeError: module 'paho.mqtt.client' has no attribute 'CallbackAPIVersion'"

Im MQTT Explorer bekomme ich jedoch nur "0{"messageId":"123","method":"device","deviceId":"xxxxx","timestamp":1712852073,"offData":0,"data":{"eventId":3,"startTime":1712851893,"endTime":1712852073,"inout":2,"mode":2,"electric":0}}" angezeigt sonst kommen keine Ereignisse.

Hi, could you push or send me an short information about how you started with faking the DNS Entry? Background:
