ok, it will definitely not work with xyz, because it is not a valid address. The system puts it there as an example value.
Please take the address of your inverters built-in website. It should look something like http://192.168.178.122. Make sure that it starts with http://.
use the username and password you use for logging in to the inverters website.
Finally, would you mind sharing your firmware and UI version? I have it tested on a Piko 8 BA and there might be differences in the interfaces.
This may explain why it is not working, if everything else (ip address, username, password) is correct.
Hi, as a newbie I was a bit lost, but thanks now, after you updated the readme I finally got how this works with the installation via HACS.
I first I also got the error host not found. But now adding the host as you descibed as http://⊠and important without a / in the end it works fine. Thanks.
And btw. I would say the user + Password would be theoretically optional, as the rest api does not require them to access all parameters
glad its working for you! I will pick up your feedback for future revisions.
I wasnât aware you could actually grab all the information without being logged in. Kind of a suprising design choiceâŠ
Would you mind sharing your firmware version and model number, so I can add it to the list of tested inverters on the README? Highly appreciated
Iâm not sure if this could be considered a disign choice or just bad coding
I have a Piko 5.5.
My previous one had Firmware 05.50 and my new replacement one has 05.61
Both Versions worked fine.
Thanks for this great integration!!! I was looking for this for ages for now. Finally my Piko 15 works and can be monitored! Thank you so much!
If itâs of any value for you, I do run a PIKO 15 with UI 06.53, FW 06.17, HW 0210, PAR 03.50.
The sensors are all accurate and show the same values as my KSEM Smart Meter shows. One smart hint I read in this thread is, that one needs to add the âhttp://â in front of the IP. I went wrong the first time and left it out and couldnât connect. Perhaps you may want to modify this, so one only has to enter the IP.
Yes I was working on an official integration and even got a couple of reviews on it. However it didnât seem quite ready yet, so I decided to continue with a HACS version and polish it a bit first.
At this point the HACS version should work fine (except for the known bugs; see this thread and github issues) for all the inverters/firmware documented in the repo.
If you happen to have time to test it or even contribute, I am open for feedback!
