AlphaESS RS485 plug-and-play local controller

Correct. 2nd from the right (or the bottom). It’s marked RS485

I’m away at the moment but it looks like my system suddenly started working the day after I left. I suspect the techs at Alpha must have remotely fixed it. The problem must have been with them not the installers.
I switched off the batteries before I left because it was randomly charging from then discharging to the grid!
I hope to get back and switch it all on by Monday

Ah, I hadn’t quite worked out the markings. But it’s immediately obvious. Second from the right will be the one I plug into. Hopefully it all works from there. I will be using an ESPuno with its ESP32-C6 and RS485 terminal, and Adafruit screen (Adafruit 128x64 OLED Bonnet for Raspberry Pi).

Hopefully it all comes together I’ll update when I have parts.

@worldvirus for our inverter, were the rj45 pins any different to the GitHub repos?

no the pins were as described. The 2 centre pins.

Sweet, I’ll update when its all together with a photo for the repo :slight_smile:

All setup and running!

I made a fork of the project and converted it to PlatformIO and added some extra debugging with the RGB LED the ESPuno dev board (link) provides, nothing major.
