Support for GE inverter using EMC controller #905

Closed springfall2008 closed 6 months ago

springfall2008 commented 7 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Support for multi-inverters controlled by the offical GE EMC module

Describe the solution you'd like Integration into Predbat

Describe alternatives you've considered Disable EMC and use GivTCP

Additional context Discussions ongoing with GE about supporting this controller

There is no local interface so it must be via cloud controls

Great to hear you've got a line of communication to GE and an interesting development but personally low priority for me.

EMC due date - who knows with any realistic certainty? Likely audience for the EMC will be limited to multi-AC users in the first instance, maybe multi AIO and hybrid in the longer term, but again, when? Cloud control only, a big turn-off as that then puts ongoing operation/free access etc entirely at the whim of GivEnergy And then a Q of the affordability of the EMC.
