PIP 2424MSE1 support - Githubissues

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

Hi, I tried with a 24v inverter from easun which however is identical to the 2424MSE1 of MPP solar looking at the esphome log I see that it sends something but receives nothing I also checked the wiring and I had reversed the red and white cable on the rj45 side, now I believe they are right IMG_20210901_163157

syssi commented 2 years ago

Could you make a better photo of the rj45 connector? I want to make sure you have connected the correct pins. Ignore the color of the wires.

syssi commented 2 years ago

@avion23 Is the rs232 converter wired correctly?

avion23 commented 2 years ago

I'll check again this weekend and upload photos

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

I use the original cable that came with the inverter and it have only 4 cable

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

I also have this converter but I search on internet how to connect them but I find different connections

syssi commented 2 years ago

You have to connect RX, TX and GND of the RJ45 cable to the Sub-D connector / pins. This circuit could/should help:

max3232-circuit

At the pin header you've to connect RX, TX, VCC3.3 and GND.

syssi commented 2 years ago

Don't connect the blue wire. In my opinion this is 12V VCC of the inverter. We don't need this voltage. ;-)

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

After checking I think I have connected in the correct way but I am waiting for confirmation because it does not work even now

rem72 commented 2 years ago

The blue wire is 12v, don't connect it. 12v can drive a buck converter to power the ESP. Thus no need of external power. Try this pinout orange-white -> pin 2 solid orange -> pin 3 solid brown -> pin 5

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

Which converter do you use?

rem72 commented 2 years ago

Which converter do you use?

I recently buyed a Voltronic Axpert VMIII 3kw/24v but I'm still having some issues with pipsolar.
I think that is similar to yours. It communicates but seems that protocol is not good.

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

I also have a 2.4kw 24v easun rebranded voltronic, but looking at the logs I don't get any response from the inverter ... Do you have any signs of life from the inverter?

syssi commented 2 years ago

Did you try the increase the log level of the UART component to VERY_VERBOSE? This would dump every transmitted/received byte to the log. This log would help to debug protocol issues.

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

Yes but i see that the esp send the command but the inverter not responding

syssi commented 2 years ago

Please make sure the TX LED of the RS232 converter module is flashing periodically. If the RX LED is flashing the module isn't wired correctly.

rem72 commented 2 years ago

I got it working, but not all values are good. Panel voltage and power are 0v and 0w, as you can see in my screenshot. Althought it's charging batteries and powering home from PV's.

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

In my converter , the smallest haven't led and the biggest ha a led but seems that not blinking

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

That's great can you send pictures of your converter and connections on the esp? @rem72

rem72 commented 2 years ago

One thing to take into account for the small RS232-TTL converter, both wires, from rs232 and ttl should be connected at the same face. This is one of my previous errors. For the big one, check the gender of the big connector, if it's female, this are the right connections: If it is male I think you can use the cable instead of soldering.

rem72 commented 2 years ago

Now I got it working with a small one.

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

Now I connect the tx of the converter with the tx of wemos d1 mini and I see blinking the led but I don't see any data in the log.... the converter is the same of your converter female

rem72 commented 2 years ago

Ah! And I used the hardware serial of the wemos d1 instead of a software one, this can be done if you change the logger uart. Which pins do you use for comms? This is my code:

But if you use the hardware uart = uart0 you have to send the logger output to the secondary uart = uart1. Check these lines:

logger: hardware_uart: UART1

if i connect the TX of the converter with the RX of wemos i see that write something but doesn t read anythigs,

syssi commented 2 years ago

Good job! Please try to understand what you have changed in detail. So we can improve the configuration example at this repository.

@rem72 We can give it a try to understand and correct the QPIGS readings later the day!

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

I tried to put back the connections tx to tx and rx to rx but now in the log I only see something writing but it doesn't read anything, the right connection should be the inverted one so rx to tx @rem72

rem72 commented 2 years ago

@syssi, these are the values for my inverter PV's

(225.8 49.9 225.8 49.9 0609 0565 020 427 27.00 005 100 0035 02.2 259.9 00.00 00000 10010110 00 00 00590 110 (aaa.a bb.b ccc.c dd.d eeee ffff ggg hhh ii.ii jjj kkk llll mm.m nnn.n oo.oo ppppp qqqqqqqq rr ss ttttt uuu

nnn.n = PV Voltage ttttt = PV input power

But I don't know how to change them

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

Ah but you have the inverter that can mix the grid with the panels because I noticed the voltage of the panels at 259v but I have the version with 40a mppt regulator but maximum voltage 100v anyway it shouldn't change anything because at the time I tried through software watchpower and PC and I had qpigs with the same organization

...

Instead how did you connect the converter to the wemos? @rem72

syssi commented 2 years ago

This is the code which needs to be improved to support your device:

https://github.com/syssi/esphome-pipsolar/blob/2424mse1/components/pipsolar/pipsolar.cpp#L449-L467

I've pushed a feature branch to improve the device support of the 2424mse1. This feature branch can be easily used by adding the following lines to the yaml:

external_components:
  - source: github://syssi/esphome-pipsolar@2424mse1
    refresh: 0s

This overrides the official component. Let's try introduce the required changes for your device here.

rem72 commented 2 years ago

@lucasimons This is my actual configuration: 20210902_104351 20210902_123052 20210902_123212

Thanks for the improvement, Maybe the right config can be done at yaml level instead of .cpp, I'll give a try and let you know the result.

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

Thanks now i have two wemos that the connection are correct, one is with the small converter in the first pics of this thread, one with the big converter i can use they to test the new code...

this is the log of my inverter connected with the pc debug-watchpower.zip

syssi commented 2 years ago

@rem72 At the moment it's not possible to change the QPIGS parsing via the yaml configuration. Is soon we've created a proper parser for your device we can introduce a device toggle at the configuration layer.

syssi commented 2 years ago

@lucasimons I've created a feature branch only (without any changes). It will take some time to update the parser. You could give it a try!

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

unfortunately I don't know how to help in modifying the code, I currently use solpiplog and it works but I don't know if you can get something by looking at that code, one other project is that https://github.com/daromer2/InverterOfThings/

rem72 commented 2 years ago

Hi, looking at the code I can see a data type mismatch, that may cause the wrong parse for my power inverter, as said before, it's a VOLTRONIC Axpert VMIII 3KW/24volt Thank so much both, I'll wait until the device toggle. Great work!!!

avion23 commented 2 years ago

Here are the promised pictures.

I know it's difficult to see. I fanned out the network cable to 1234 from the top and then 5678 to the right. If you build something like this then include a bulk capacitor (bottom). The ESP-Module sometimes sips 500mA

IMG_20210902_193636

blue / white is rx / tx (I don't remember which one). IMG_20210902_193719

blue / white is rx / tx (I don't remember which one).

remeber the ESP is NOT TTL (5V) level. You need you uart signal at 3.3v Level. I had issues when directly connection the TTL-Level(5V). therefor perhaps the max3232 chip is better. Is made a board where i can directly connect 2 Invertes (but one works also ).. if there is the need i can make the data available.. or even let a pcb-fab do some for shipping?

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

Hi, I tried with a 24v inverter from easun which however is identical to the 2424MSE1 of MPP solar looking at the esphome log I see that it sends something but receives nothing I also checked the wiring and I had reversed the red and white cable on the rj45 side, now I believe they are right

@andreashergert1984 this is my converter but seems that write something but not receive anything from the inverter

syssi commented 2 years ago

I've pushed a fix for the QPIGS response:

https://github.com/syssi/esphome-pipsolar/commit/3fe7d85796518b445954d0dde61e5e8a2b549822

To illustrate the QPIGS parser I've introduced some comments:

Please give it a try by adding this external/fixed component to your YAML:

avion23 commented 2 years ago

@lucasimons you also need 3.3V on the inverter side. The way it is right now, the high voltage side is not powered. The converter board has a little charge pump which generates the ~15V from your 3.3V.

Do not connect the 12V ;) Then you need a new converter.

I have some PIP-5048MS (?) Clone

i actually us the ~15V to power the ESP32 Board. With a Step-Down. But it needs both inverters to deliver enough power.. so i will observe this...

I try the new code with the two converter but I don't see any response

could you provide a schematic of your connections?

syssi commented 2 years ago

@lucasimons If your inverter always responds with a very short answer you could try to increase the baud rate (4800, 9600, 19200).

good point. i would first try to directly connect a PC to the inverter.. and check if there an answer gets out at least an error (NACK) or else.

lucasimons commented 2 years ago

I am also using an rp4 with solpiplog and that works but it is connected via usb, however now I try to see if the esp sends something by connecting it to the PC via a ttl to usb converter

i would do a step by step check.. does you esp send the commands correctly out ? just loop your rx and tx pin on esp.. to another/same/arduino and listen to uart data. Then check the level shifter.. i also had some dead on arrival.
