Just released 0.7.0b44 which should work with your Inverter now.

[dewafre]

Nice, it works perfect!!! Thx alit

Hello after reading the wiki and trying to install the energy dashboard I have one little problem. Can I refer to the https://github.com/wills106/homeassistant-solax-modbus/discussions/211#discussion-4583863

Thx alot !

Hello after reading the wiki and trying to install the energy dashboard I have one little problem. Can I refer to the #211 (comment)

Thx alot !

Hello @wills106

I think i solved the problem by adding scale = 0.1, in plugin_solis.py Is this correct?

[wills106]

That's correct, if you only get 5kWh instead of 5.1kWh for example add the following as well: rounding = 1,

The docs were missing how to round the numbers. Does you total seem accurate though?

[dewafre]

The entities that are to high at the moment are: sensor.solis_grid_import_today => solved scale = 0.1 sensor.solis_meter_grid_import_total sensor.solis_grid_export_today => solved scale = 0.1 sensor.solis_meter_grid_export_total sensor.solis_meter_total_activepower

Other issue i have is the energy dashboard. This morning there was a 0 reading of the sensor.solis_grid_import_today. Because of the 0 reading, in the energy dashboard is Grid Import data x 2. The correct reading is ±4,5 but it says 9kWh. Is there a possibility to cancel zero readings in the plugin? Thx alot @wills106 for the effort, i love your script ;-)

[wills106]

It's built into the dashboard to reset production values if it drops to zero. (STATE_CLASS_TOTAL_INCREASING)

Does your grid_import_total drop to zero as well? If not you could use that in your dashboard instead?

_sensor.solis_grid_import_today => solved scale = 0.1 sensor.solis_meter_grid_import_total => solved scale = 0.01 sensor.solis_grid_export_today => solved scale = 0.1 sensor.solis_meter_grid_export_total => solved scale = 0.01 sensor.solis_meter_totalactivepower => solved scale = 0.01

Ok i will try sensor.solis_meter_grid_import_total & sensor.solis_meter_grid_export_total instead in the energy dashboard and let you know if works OK

[wills106]

It should work fine, we have to do a similar thing on the Gen2 SolaX.

On the Gen3 & Gen4 you have "Battery Input Energy Today" which we use for the Dashboard.

The Gen2 doesn't have that register, so you have to use "Battery Input Energy Total"

[wills106]

@kai-seipp do the above sensors read ok on your Inverter or do they need scaling how @dewafre has suggested?

[kai-seipp]

Hey Guys,

I don't trust my inverters import / exports readings at all. I use a shelly 3EM to monitor these values. So I have not yet really checked them.

But yes they do need scaling from what I can see. Here is what I could find:

Grid Import Yesterday Shelly: 7,66 kWh Grid Import Yesterday Solis South Inverter: 84 kWh Grid Import Yesterday Solis North Inverter: 60 kWh

Grid Export Yesterday Shelly: 3,09 kWh Grid Export Yesterday Solis South Inverter: 12 kWh Grid Export Yesterday Solis North Inverter: 12 kWh

[wills106]

@blackwhitebear8 @dewafre @kai-seipp With 0.7.0b47 do your scalings look correct now? Also are your timed charge / discharge looking more normal now? You times for example should be 0-23 hours and 0-59 mins. Before they were probably all random looking?

[blackwhitebear8]

The update broke more here xd Theres no battery connected still

[wills106]

Can you share the exact entity names for those two broken ones please.

[wills106]

I haven't changed any battery entities so I don't know what's going on with the battery one. Unless you added something that wasn't a battery there?

[blackwhitebear8]

I saw there were a few more broken ones Meter active power Battery power And house load becouse it doesnt do anything anymore

[wills106]

@blackwhitebear8 could I have a screen shot of how they look and a description of what they should be. I don't know if I have scaled too high or too low.

[blackwhitebear8]

well battery should be 0 meter active power is idk what it needs to be becouse house load doesnt show anything anymore

[blackwhitebear8]

i m also seeing this now: Logger: custom_components.solax_modbus Source: custom_components/solax_modbus/init.py:226 Integration: SolaX Inverter Modbus (documentation, issues) First occurred: 12:27:02 (12 occurrences) Last logged: 12:27:08

Solis: read failed at 0x8199: house_load_total Solis: read failed at 0x819b: house_load_today Solis: read failed at 0x819c: house_load_yesterday

[wills106]

"Battery Power" and "House Load" haven't been changed in a while.

Does 0.7.0b48 correct the rear fail of: Solis: read failed at 0x8199: house_load_total Solis: read failed at 0x819b: house_load_today Solis: read failed at 0x819c: house_load_yesterday

[blackwhitebear8]

Doesnt look like it i also see this now

Deze fout is ontstaan door een aangepaste integratie.

input register already declared: 0x816a energy_storage_control_switch

[wills106]

0.7.0b49 will correct "Energy Storage Control Switch"

[blackwhitebear8]

everything seems back to normal now again only meter active power is still saying 300.000W and by sensors its still expecting KWH for some sensors

[wills106]

meter active power is still saying 300.000W

I am guessing it isn't expecting any round then, it should just be 300w

still expecting KWH for some sensors

Could you let me know which ones and I can correct the native_unit_of_measurement for them.

[blackwhitebear8]

solis meter active power is in kwh (maybe that explains why it has .000 when its displayed in W) more sensors i havent added / in use atm that do this

[kai-seipp]

@blackwhitebear8 @dewafre @kai-seipp With 0.7.0b47 do your scalings look correct now? Also are your timed charge / discharge looking more normal now? You times for example should be 0-23 hours and 0-59 mins. Before they were probably all random looking?

The entity sensor.solis_meter_active_power must be in W not in kWh. Scaling of Grid Import / Export looks good now. Still don't Trust the numbers though...

I did see you introduced a control for different programs of the inverter. Nice! My suggestion is to use the working of what people get in that little documentation Solis is sharing...

So I assume "Spontaneous Mode" should be "Auto Mode"?

[wills106]

Could I have some screen shots of these sensors from the Integration page, not from a dashboard card.

"Meter Active Power" "Meter Active Power Total"

If any 3 Phase also:

"Meter Active Power L1" "Meter Active Power L2" "Meter Active Power L3"

It's hard to tell if the dashboard is doing stuff to the values or not, I need to see the raw numbers then I can correct them. According to the docs they should all be kW

So I assume "Spontaneous Mode" should be "Auto Mode"?

Yea I was just going of the docs, I thought it was a funny name!

[blackwhitebear8]

Meter Active Power

Meter Active Power Total

Meter Active Power L1

Meter Active Power L2

Meter Active Power L3

[wills106]

I forgot there are two Meter Active Power in the docs! I was looking at the wrong one...

So on a 3Phase the following are correct?

"Meter Active Power Total" "Meter Active Power L1" "Meter Active Power L2" "Meter Active Power L3"

[wills106]

For "Meter Active Power L1" "Meter Active Power L2" "Meter Active Power L3" "Meter Active Power Total" Could I have a screen shot of all 4 of them from the Integration page like: (Obviously not the PV Power)

That way I am see them in the same time instance. I am assuming L1 + L2 + L3 should = Power Total?

Edit: Ignoring the fact "Meter Active Power" is in kWh

When "Meter Active Power" is showing 300 Does "Meter Active Power Total" show 0.3kW / 0,3 kW

[blackwhitebear8]

[wills106]

So when Active Power Total was -0,488kW was Active Power 488w? Well 488kWh

[blackwhitebear8]

yes and the - means its being imported - bought atm

[wills106]

Right ok, I understand what's going on now. I'll make some corrections.

[wills106]

0.7.0b50 should correct this now.

[blackwhitebear8]

the extra 0 are gone now

[wills106]

Do any other sensors seem to be either named incorrect or scaled incorrect?

[blackwhitebear8]

is there a way to get all sensors in a dashboard at once so i can look at them?

[wills106]

Best way it to take a screenshot of the Integration Page.

Or create a blank Dashboard page and add them all using the Add to Dashboard Button. They might be more compact that way.

The first method is fine, I know it will be at different times, but you should get enough sensors at a time on each bit as you scroll down.

[blackwhitebear8]

what do you mean with intergration page?

[wills106]

Settings / Devices & Services /

You should see a big list.

[blackwhitebear8]

you can change configs via there of the inverter????

[wills106]

If you click that 1 device you will see all of the entities.

There is the option to set charge / discharge times etc. But untested.

Edit: Not the CONFIGURE button, that's to alter the polling rate and some other bits.

[blackwhitebear8]

i hope you can do something with this

[wills106]

It's a bit low quality and some the units of measurement are chopped off.

But there isn't anything obviously wrong sticking out to me? It all looks ok at a glance.

[wills106]

@dewafre once you get chance to test 0.7.0b50 could you let me know if everything seems ok to you as well on your installation.

[blackwhitebear8]

battery voltage shows 1.7V but there is no battery connected? what is a bypass load? meter current shows high A at all times i dont think theres 18amps flowing though it when theres only 1000 watts of usage and is there a sensor for inverter errors?

[kai-seipp]

You can check most of the values shown in HA by comparing them to the ones shown within the Inverters menu. Go there on Info, Meter and click through those.

This integration can only show what the inverter is passing on.

[wills106]

Battery voltage - It might just not be very accurate at low voltages, so it's probably a phantom reading. Bypass load - no idea to be honest, it's just in the docs. Anything in your User Manual? Meter Current - do you think it should be 1.8A? Inverter Errors - Yes, but not yet implemented. I need to add reading individual bits of a register. It's on the Todo List V2. It's needed for SolaX as well.

[blackwhitebear8]

meter current isnt right if it was 1.8 it would be too low idk how it calculates it
