unrecognized SolisSolax inverter type - serial number : 110C9222**

Additional context Add any other context about the problem here. I used the IP of the logger + port 8899

I checked meter current against my 3EM, yes the decimal must go one to the left. 13,0 should be 1,30

[blackwhitebear8]

i just took a ss of meter active power and current it current is atm 20A if i divide the W usage i would get 3.5A or something and not 20 or 2

[wills106]

My house load is about 350w ~ and the Inverter current is 1.6A to 1.7A

[blackwhitebear8]

my load is about 775W and the current shows 22,8A

[blackwhitebear8]

2.28A cant be right either?

[kai-seipp]

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

Please check against the values your inverter or what your meter display shows.

[wills106]

Yea that works out there about's 415v = 1.86A

[blackwhitebear8]

meter shows around 5.1A atm

[blackwhitebear8]

20.04 is displayed in HA

[kai-seipp]

2.28A cant be right either?

Why not, seams quite plausible to me.

[blackwhitebear8]

2.28A with 775W load is not correct 😂 should be around 3.3A then

[kai-seipp]

Well I will call it a Sunday for today. Maybe we should all try to bundle our feedback and requests a little. I would hate to see Wills personal battery at low power.

[wills106]

Well some of your PV will be powering things. Not just grid pull.

[wills106]

You will never get things to add up 100% PV, Battery (when you get one) Grid are all at different voltages. There will also be losses through conversions etc.

I think that 18A does need changing to 1.8A though. It will be close enough.

[blackwhitebear8]

grid + solar =996W house only reports 933W wheres my other power?

[kai-seipp]

The inverter itself consumes about 20w when active. And also:

You read out via Modbus, about 100 registers. By the time you have read out the last the values of register first will already have shifted a little. You should see this as a way to learn where your energy is coming from and going to. Especially over the course of time.

Don't make it a science. I have three different meters in my setup and all are showing little different values. I my opinion we should aim for "good enough". The time and budget you would have to invest for "perfect" is - this is at least my opinion - just not worth it for a home installation.

[blackwhitebear8]

also what happends when the inverter goes off and turns on again does it auto pickup or? becouse after i restarted it yesterday (HA) i needed to restart HA again todat to get data again everything was just showing 0 before that

[wills106]

If you restart HA during the evening / night (when the Inverter is asleep) you will loose the connection and you will have to restart HA when the Inverter wakes up.

If you leave HA alone tonight, when the Inverter goes to sleep HA will wait for it. Then it the morning when the Inverter wakes up it will carry on sending data to HA.

[blackwhitebear8]

will this eveer be like fixed?

[wills106]

It's not a bug.

HA / The Integration can't establish a connection if there is nothing to communicate to.

[blackwhitebear8]

can you not add something that it retries connection?

[wills106]

No, day to day you shouldn't need to restart HA. There is already code in there to reduce slowdown when it tries to poll during sleep, it skips 9 out of 10 read requests.

[blackwhitebear8]

i think this error means that the inverter is offline?

Deze fout is ontstaan door een aangepaste integratie.

[blackwhitebear8]

sensor house load doesnt reset / go to 0 when the inverter is offline

[wills106]

I am going to close down as the Integration now supports '110C' Inverters.

Any further issues, please raise a new issue.
