Hi,
I’m trying to add the current power from my older solar array (ABB UNO inverter).
I’ve found out that it is sending the value in 10W (60W in image)
Now I’m trying to read this into home assistant but I cannot figure out why it is not working.
I’m not a programmer.
My yaml code:
modbus:
- name: PV Inverter
type: tcp
host: 192.168.64.87
port: 502
sensors:
- name: PV Inverter Vermogen
unit_of_measurement: W
slave: 1
address: 4088
input_type: input
scale: 10.00
offset: 0
Also, I’m going to use HA mostly for power management / insight together with influx and grafana.
I’m lacking information of my heatpump (LG-therma V) and HP boiler (Nibe).
They have RS485 communication options.
My RPi is too far away from these appliances to run a twisted pair directly.
I’ve found this device at various Chinese sites:
EBTYE OEM/ODM NB114 which should make it possible to go from serial directly to MQQT.
Do you guys think this is a good solution or should I go for a RTU to TCP modbus converter?
I dont like rebooting my system every time adding sensors into the yaml.
Thanks in advance.
