Thanks for your post. I have some questions and things to try:
SEMS not being updated when 5s interval is selected
As for this point, it seems to me that this is a GoodWe specific problem I can't solve in the plugin. I'm glad you found a solution in that by setting the interval to 240s. But I don't think I can help any further with that. GoodWe is known for its quite bad Wifi implementations. Maybe there is some weird problem going on at your site that causes a Wifi problem of some sort in the GoodWe.
- Since you have 2 GoodWe inverters, does this start working normally when you shutdown one (try shutting down either one)?
- You may try to contact GoodWe and ask them if this is a known issue and if there's a update available regardless of that.
Error: Thread seems to have ended unexpectedly
This error doesn't ring any bell here, a quick Google search tells me that this is a Domoticz Watchdog that measures an unusual long runtime from (appearantly) my plugin. No other users have been reporting this, so I'm curious how often these errors occur. I'm gonna need lots of information (as many as we can think of) to see if we can find the root cause of that.
- What is your Domoticz version exactly?
- Can you post your Domoticz logs here (filtered on "GoodWe PV" (so that the logs of both inverters is showing)), for a period of several hours where this error shows at least multiple times? Make sure timestamps are visible in the logs posted.
- Does this problem occur in both 240s interval and 5s interval settings?
- How often does the problem occur?
- When the problem occurs, is data still being updated normally in Domoticz?
- Since you have 2 GoodWe inverters, does the error go away when you shutdown one (try shutting down either one)? (with shutdown I mean actually turning off the inverter and disabling the plugin in Domoticz)
- I assume you have my plugin configured twice in Domoticz so you can view data from both inverters?
- If you disable one of the two plugins in Domoticz, does the error keep showing?
Errors when family setting on ES
- What are those errors? Please post the logs as complete as possible.
- When set to ES and after all those erros when starting Domoticz, does it work normally, or doesn't it?
- Do errors keep coming, or does it stop after Domoticz has started?
- When set to AUTO, no errors are logged when starting Domoticz?

"Updated 17 values out of 62" is a normal log message.

Hi,
Just upgraded my PV system with 2x GW3600-ES-20. These are the G2 version of the GW3600 hybrid inverter. For now I do not have any battery attached as this is for future use.
Being a Domoticz user for a long time I am very interested in using your plugin with my configuration, so I installed the plugin, understanding that this is a BETA-version.
I got a lot of data into Domoticz and am incredibly pleased that this is possible via you plugin, fantastic!
Following issues came up and might be of interest:
Although I got data transfer to Domoticz working even with an interval of 5 seconds (fantastic), I needed to set the interval to 240 seconds. This is because SEMS is not getting data updated otherwise. Also I get some kind of "Server error" for the communication, according to the LED's (these inverters do not have a display) on the inverters. Setting the interval to 240 seconds seems to solve this problem, setting to any faster interval is giving problems with SEMS update.
I keep getting the following errors in the Domoticz log: Error: GoodWe PV02 hardware (43) thread seems to have ended unexpectedly Error: GoodWe PV01 hardware (42) thread seems to have ended unexpectedly
Every now and then I get a message in the log like: GoodWe PV02: Updated 17 values out of 62
I would be glad to help with any information that help to improve your Beta-version.
Some additional info: I have set the Inverter Family to AUTO. If I set it to ES I get a lot of errors when restarting Domoticz.
