I’m using now this integration: GitHub - wlcrs/huawei_solar: Home Assistant integration for Huawei Solar inverters via Modbus
In inverter I have 139 in dongle 123. I once upgraded inverter to 140 and lost connection to the inverter also with fusionsolar app.
I’m connected to internal AP. I tested LAN and wifi with smart dongle, but with internal AP for me works the best. It’s fast and very stable.
In wlcrs integration there is no need for template sensor. All data are in separate entities.
I am connected by cable, but there is no way to connect with the integration, maybe I don’t have to use the IP address 192.168.200.1 even if I can ping it …
I don’t think that a dongle will help improve the stability of the connection between HA and the inverter.
Can you describe how everything was connected before and after you installed the home battery? Which wires between which devices are connected to which connection ports exactly? Feel free to include a diagram from the manual that you used as a reference.
You can also send me your log files (check the readme of the integration on how to increase verbosity) if you want me to check what is going on.
In inverter firmware 140 and newer port was changed to 6607. but only if you are connected to internal wifi. If you are using cable so you are connected to smart dongle and ip should be from you home network range, port 502 and usually slave: 1
At first the two inverters were connected to 10 panels each and worked independently (but still connected with modbus cable). I could connect to the IP and ID 0 on both IP addresses and get data thru Emilv2 integration. I just added the to values from each inverter to get the values. And this worked until the battery was installed.
Now is one inverter set up as a master and has the battery connected to it and the slave inverter no longer accept connection from its IP. All data is transfered online so its correct there. I still can connect for commissioning to both inverters (but it requires tu do a firmware upgrade to get in and look at the data)
The system consist of 2 inverters, a Luna 2000 and a Backup Box B0
All COM port on each device is connected to the master inverter COM
The Battery is connected to the master
Today I was unable to do some tests for work reasons but tomorrow I will try to connect with the inverter and as a first step I will try with an RPI4 (and then switch to a mini-itx)
So if you have time and desire I will bother you again for further clarification and advice … on how you built your card …
A thousand thanks
To what pins are your battery, backup box and 2nd inverter connected on the master inverter? I think that all communication wires must be connected to the RS485_2 pins of the master. On the slave inverter you must use the RS485_1 pins. (cfr. documentation) Have you given the 2nd inverter a distinct slave-id from all the other devices on that modbus? No two devices can have the same ID on the same modbus…
Actually I don’t know. I suppose the company that installed it did it right it working and I see the correct data in Fusion app. Have ot tried the beta versions yet, it migt solve the problem
Can someone please explain what i can do best to monitor all ? Is it best to work with modbus tcp or with rs485 . I have the HUAWEI SUN2000-4.6KTL-L1 . Feature plan is to add battery to. I’m monitoring all now on the fusion app. My inverter is now connected by rs485 to my energy meter. Don’t have a digital energy meter from the company yet.
How can i monitor it all and see this in the home assistant app? So what power my solar panels deliver , battery status ( charging , …) what i send to the grid , what i take from the grid and so on. This topic is so so big , it’s really not easy to find what your looking for.
