Running Homey 3.0.0, my inverter shows up as a device that is using power rather than generating, i.e. it has a positive wattage in the Energy overview, which I think should be negative. Am I right?
EDIT: I reloaded the app and it is now showing up correctly, under its own category (Zonnepanelen).
The app worked, for like 30 minutes, now it keeps saying that device is not reachable, while it is.
Restarting the app does not seem to fix it so far. Any idea?
Got 2 SMA sunnyboys with static ipās and port is default 502.
The new version of the app that I have created will soon be out in beta, but I have so far not done much changes to the storage device type given that I donāt own one and cant test changes.
The only way to really see what is going on in your case is to run the app in debug mode, which means deploying it locally using athom cli. Is that something you have done before and can do? [HOW TO] CLI install method
I have seen very limited interest in installing and trying out the TEST version. Based on that Iāll push the version 2 of the app to LIVE during next week.
Hi and Thanks for a great app!
Iāve used it with a STP8000 before, but yesterday my second plant got online with a Sunny TriPower 5.0 (STP5.0-3AV-40 673).
I saw that someone had asked earlier in the forum regarding this STP, but I did not understand why itās not possible to get Daily Yield out of it.
I can only agree that it is strange, but I double checked the modbus spec again for this inverter and only total yield is available. Canāt say why they have done it like that.
You find all specs on this page, https://www.sma.de/en/service/downloads.html. You should select āMonitoring & Controlā, then āModbus protokoll-schnittstelleā, then āTechnical informationā. Here you can use find in your browser and search for āSTP5.0ā and you will see a zip file to download. I took āMODBUS-HTML_STP3-6-3AV-40_V11.zipā, after unzipping inside folder there are html files, open the one that contains your language of choice, āmodbuslist_en.htmlā in my case.
Again use browser find to search for āyieldā and you will see there is no daily yield parameter.
But none of the above resolved the problem. Nothing has changed since. Only thing i noticed in the settings is that i see a lot off unknownās. I have a Sunny Boy 4.0.
Your Sunny boy model was missing in the mapping, that is why it says unknown in the deviceType field. This is already addressed and will be solved in next version which is under review by Athom. Should be released in the next few days.
Anyone which has a device type which says unknown should drop me a note and mention the number within parenthesis.
App working great and iām realy happy with it.
Not sure if it is possible or to much work but i would love to see an option to upload data to pvoutput.org.
Create a ticket in the github repo and explain a little more what info you want to send to pvoutput, etc.
Checked a little yesterday and it seems only research is around what data to send in what field, technically there are no problems.
Just wanted to highlight that in latest firmware update for the Energy Meter/Home Manager 2 SMA have changed the format of the datagram message they send. This means that for the time being Phase info for L1, L2 and L3 are not working properly. Grid power and grid feed-in works fine still.
I have asked SMA support on this, since they havenāt published an updated spec covering the new format. Will see what this gives, they have now asked me for more information.
If you havenāt gotten firmware version 2.03.4.R yet, and you rely on L1-L3 values, then it might be a good idea to disable auto-update for now.
Youāll get a beta version for PVOutput.org in version 2.0.6, it will also include a fix for the EnergyMeter phase power/current issue with SMAās latest firmware version.
