Current Behavior

I have a sensor in a 2 in 1 inverter that shows both charge and discharge. when I connected the sensor, it constantly shows that the battery is discharging, even when it is charging. during discharge it displays "-".

Expected behaviour

HI. Please can you share your card configuration and a screenshot of the issue.

The battery power will always be displayed as a positive number. Does the the dot move in the correct direction when charging and discharging? If not you can use the invert option

[amgstone]

always shows a positive number

[slipx06]

Yes that's correct. Please refer to the documentation https://slipx06.github.io/sunsynk-power-flow-card/configuration.html#battery

[amgstone]

now it is charging, but the charging status visualizes that it is being discharged and increases the time until it is fully discharged

[amgstone]

when charging it should show "charging" status, am i misunderstanding something?

[amgstone]

I have -1.4 amps and -79 watts at a time on the battery. and it shows that I have 79 watts without "-".

The card will never show a negative number for battery power, regardless of what your sensor value is. If needed you can invert the battery power.

Try adding the invert_power attribute to your battery section

battery:
  energy: 18000
  shutdown_soc: 10
  show_daily: true
  max_power: 11000
  invert_power: true

I'm going to update the card to apply the same logic to the battery_current. i.e. only show the sensor value as positive.

[amgstone]

added, it works, but tomorrow I will see how it will work when the battery is charged from the sun

[amgstone]

also tell me where to enter what, I can't add an electric car to the input load

[slipx06]

You can add an additional load to the essential side and enable in your config. Its all documented.

additional_loads: | Optional | 0 | Display additional loads on the essential side (0/1/2) -- | -- | -- | -- load1_name: | Optional |   | Set the display name for the essential load 1 load2_name: | Optional |   | Set the display name for the essential load 2 load1_icon: | Optional | none | Change the essential load 1 image using preset or any mdi icon e.g. mdi:ev-station Presets are: boiler, pump, aircon, oven load2_icon: | Optional | none | Change the essential load 2 image using preset or any mdi icon e.g. mdi:ev-station Presets are: boiler, pump, aircon, oven essential_load1: | Optional |   | Sensor that contains the power of your essential load 1 (W) -- | -- | -- | --

thank you very much, everything works
