Not sure for Gen24 - I guess you’ll see it in solar.web somewhere - there you should also be able to upgrade it. Or on its built-in web-UI. It should be something like 1.14.x
These batteries can be connected to a Fronius inverter and the data can then be read from the inverter then. They are connected via Modbus (probably through a LAN cable) so no Wifi data needed for the Battery.
Don’t know if they would also work standalone.
I have the “Gen24” and the “unknown” devices but not the Smart Meter (because they installed this CCS Wattnode thing instead) and no BYD device at all.
I assume all of these devices are part of the Fronius integration.
My suspicion is that in order to get the BYD device to show, I need the Fronius Smart Meter rather than the Wattnode (which I think is just a CT clamp to Modbus interface rather than a “smart processor”)
I really am just looking for one more sensor … Battery Charge Percentage … which I can see via the Solar.Web app/website, so it must be “exposed” somehow.
Hi all, I’m using Fronius since one year ago, but now I have started to use the HA integration. I would like to change the frequency updating consumption data to use it for my EV charger. Do you know how to change from 10 seconds to 5 seconds?
If you really need more frequent updates in HA (Inverter not controlling the charger directly / via its IO port) I’d probably go for Modbus as the HTTP-API is not super fast / reliable and the Modbus people say theirs is. See Integration of a Fronius Symo Gen 24 plus Inverter via Modbus TCP
I included several entities of the same device on my automation and now I’m getting very awkward values (sky high values) on the Energy dashboard (for my own dashboards I’m getting values as expected).
Does it matter to update only one sensor vs updating them all via automation?
The HA energy page is showing energy data, summed for each hour. That Fronius app screenshot is a snapshot of live power data. They are different things.
The HA energy page is showing in the lower pane the solar PV output by hour, while the top panel shows where that energy went - some of it self-consumed (orange), the balance exported to the grid (purple).
The HA Energy page animated graphic on the right with the moving dots is a bit confusing as it is showing energy totals, while the animated graphics give the impression it is power data like the Fronius app is showing.
Newbie here. Installed Fronius via integration and local IP. The inverter is limited to 0 injection into the grid due to paperwork ongoing. No battery, just on grid system. Is this configuration OK?
Thanks!
