Sunsynk Docs apps.yaml and automations #1331

Open tmh88 opened 1 month ago

Below is the code for the my app.yaml and automations used to integrate my Sunsynk 8.8Kw ECCO inverter, hopefully it helps others. Thanks to @springfall2008 for the code modifications along the way.

What are the test values e.g. input_number.test_sunsynk_battery_max_charge_current ?

I currently have the following templates (slightly different naming for the BMS reported limitation):

Max Charge Rate: {{ [5000,[states('number.sunsynk_battery_max_charge_current')|int,states('sensor.sunsynk_battery_charge_bms_limit_current')|int]|min * states('sensor.sunsynk_battery_voltage')|float]|min }}

But not sure what the Sunsynk Charge Rate Calc refers to - are the input numbers just helpers to manually restrict it?

Meatballs1 commented 3 weeks ago

Ah I think I see, the charge_rate/discharge_rate should be the actual power the inverter can handle, the inverter_limit_charge could just be an input number to apply a limit.

I think you are correct, I’ve made an error in my config. I was testing before allowing it to adjust the inverter.

Below is the code for the my app.yaml and automations used to integrate my Sunsynk 8.8Kw ECCO inverter, hopefully it helps others. Thanks to @springfall2008 for the code modifications along the way.

@springfall2008 have I interpreted this correctly? in the apps.yaml inverter_limit_charge: & inverter_limit_discharge: are inputs to predbat to limit the charge and discharge power to the batteries

charge_rate: & discharge_rate: are inputs to predbat to tell predbat the actual charge/discharge power of the inverter

springfall2008 commented 2 weeks ago

Inverter limit charge/discharge are inputs that defined the maximum rate to set

charge_rate/discharge_rate are controls, Predbat can read them to find the current rate and write them to change the rate

I think charge_rate is ignored because ooutput_charge_control is set to current for SK?

We have the number.sunsynk_battery_max_charge_current etc which are used in the timed_charge_current/timed_discharge_current settings.

I had some issues with:

Resetting charging SOC as we are not within the window or charge is disabled and inverter_soc_reset is enabled (now 09-14 21:05:00 target set_soc_minutes 30 charge start time 09-14 23:30:00)

It kept putting my Timezone SOC back up to 100%, which was causing Idle to fail to cover the load. Disabled it in expert mode and will see how I go.
