Juntek KG-F Series on HA

chukaonline · July 25, 2022, 5:06pm

Hi all,

I am looking to get a shunt KG140F to monitor my battery voltage, current, and SOC. It supports modbus over rs485. The problem is the manufacturer’s implementation of modbus. They have provided the documentation but i don’t know how to get HA to read register 50 which contains voltage, current, and SOC.

Someone has writen a code (not pyton) but i dont know how to convert to something HA can read.

Processing: juntek modbus.txt…

Any help appreciated.

Hi, I’m also interested in the integration of this component, I have no idea of programming, I can’t help much, do you have any progress?
I also have a pzem through esphome and this works well since esphome has it integrated.
Thanks

I don’t have a solution yet. I have also ordered a PZEM-017 which I intend to use with elfin ew11.

hi, i have an elfin ew11, do you have any progress with the junctek or pzem?

I think i found something

I also found this tutorial

Had any luck getting this working properly?

good morning
Someone has managed to communicate the KG-F100 with an EW11 over Wi-Fi to a home assistant. Could you explain the steps and configuration in EW11, and in HA.

Thank you.

Why not use the already working solution posted by @mjanicek. That is what I am using and works well.

AORDU · July 25, 2023, 12:09pm

What card do I need, I have no experience with transmoting

AORDU · November 3, 2023, 5:08pm

Hello .mjanicek. I have a KG-F 100 meter for the photovoltaic panels and battery of my motorhome and I want to connect it with Home Assistant. Could you give me more information about the material you needed (communication cards, wiring and programming in home assistant)?

Thank you very much in advance

He used Wemos mini R1. Just follow the link @marcinek posted.

I used an esp32 but the process is the same.

@DeadmaroZ-TLOTL, this seems neater in my view. Can you share a picture of your connection between NB114 and Juntek shunt?

Hello chukaonline. Do you have more information to make the connection with the ESP32, could you provide some photographs and video so that I can become familiar with this device and how to interconnect it to the KG-F through the RS 485 port…

Mine is quite an untidy mess.

Hola Chukaonline.

Podrias pasar mas fotos o un esquema a mano alzada entre el cableado del RS-485 LINK y la tarjeta EspHome?
Antentamente. Antonio
