GoodWe GW15K-ET Inverter - Goodwe Integration in HA

Configuration
1

Hi,

I have a weird issue with the official local GoodWe Integration (not using the SEMS Cloud Integration). The Integration works total fine - until couple of hours, or next morning no entities are active any longer. A restart of the Integration does not do the trick - but the restart of the local App (Solar Go) do the trick. After logging in into the App the HA Entities of Goodwe all up and running again. This indicates an authentication error I think but I could not figure it out yet.

I’m using no WIFI at all, I have everything connected via LAN and static IP Adresses.
To poll the data from the GoodWe Inverter Home Assistent is using the UDP Port 8899.

Error from the Log Book until I start/restart the local App “Solar Go”

Good Morning,

someone any Idea what this might cause?

Thanks

I have been experiencing the same issues. I believe it might be due to the integration polling for updates every 10seconds which the inverter doesn’t like. Possibly causing something in the module to become unresponsive.

There is a solution to poll less by disabling the integration polling update and then manually creating an automation that updates those entities less frequently (such as every 30-60 seconds).

Can you explain exactly what you do in the solar go app to get it to work again? Do you reset the network back to factory and reconfigure it?

Have you found a permanent fix other than changing polling frequency?
