SAJ Solar inverter

has anyone the H2 trufase inverters of SAJ??

at this address I get nothing in browser

http://192.168.1.155/status/status.php

Podrías iluminarme sobre cómo hacerlo?

can you share the sensor and the graph code?

Hi! Is that the modbus definition of SAJ H1? I can’t believe it, I have been searching that info for months. Could you send me the complete document? Thank you!!

Buenas, hemos hecho un grupo de telegram donde tratamos este tema y otros (mas abajo)
Por modbus, puerto rs232 usb del inversor y los codigos del potocolo de comunicacion modbus del año 2020, he conseguido sacar datos a tiempo real, de lectura y escritura. Bien con nodered, o desde el archivo de configuration.yaml:
modbus:

  • name: SAJ
    close_comm_on_error: true
    type: tcp
    timeout: 5
    host: 192.168.1.60
    port: 502
    sensors:
    • name: modbus_red
      unit_of_measurement: “W”
      slave: 1
      address: 16545
      count: 1
      precision: 0
      scale: 1
      data_type: int16
      device_class: power
      scan_interval: 10
      unique_id: modbus_red
    • name: modbus_pv
      unit_of_measurement: “W”
      slave: 1
      address: 16549
      count: 1
      precision: 0
      scale: 1
      data_type: uint16
      device_class: power
      scan_interval: 10
      unique_id: modbus_pv
    • name: modbus_consumo
      unit_of_measurement: “W”
      slave: 1
      address: 16544
      count: 1
      precision: 0
      scale: 1
      data_type: uint16
      device_class: power
      scan_interval: 10
      unique_id: modbus_consumo
    • name: modbus_bateria
      unit_of_measurement: “W”
      slave: 1
      address: 16550
      count: 1

      data_type: int16
      device_class: power
      scan_interval: 10
      unique_id: modbus_bateria
      y asi con muchas direcciones del protocolo, algunas son erroneas y otras no están.

Hi,

I’ve been using a WiFi dongle for a while with my SAJ SunTrio inverter and I preferred the REST sensor over the SAJ integration. I recently switched to an Ethernet dongle, and this other dongle provides XML output for the live data, I had the idea to switch back to the SAJ integration. I’ve been struggling with the module first, because it wouldn’t have displayed any live data. After contacting SAJ support they updated the firmware remotely on the module and the SAJ integration complained about equipment_data.xml not being found, since this latest firmware from SAJ doesn’t include the device information page anymore.

So I ended up creating REST sensors from the real_time_data.xml, here it is if anyone is interested:
In the top level:

rest:
  - resource: http://192.168.0.243/real_time_data.xml
    sensor:
      - name: "SAJ"
        json_attributes_path: "$.real_time_data"
        value_template: "OK"
        json_attributes:
          - "state"
          - "Vac_l1"
          - "Vac_l2"
          - "Vac_l3"
          - "Iac_l1"
          - "Iac_l2"
          - "Iac_l3"
          - "Freq1"
          - "p-ac"
          - "temp"
          - "e-today"
          - "e-total"
          - "CO2"
          - "v-pv1"
          - "v-pv2"
          - "maxPower"
          - "i-pv11"
          - "i-pv21"
    scan_interval: 10

The rest under template sensors, I’m using some templating to keep my daily energy sensor visible on some dashboards after the inverter is offline:

  - platform: template
     sensors:
       today_power_generated:
       friendly_name: Inverter Today power generated

          {{states('sensor.today_power_generated') | float }}
          {% else %}
          {{ state_attr('sensor.saj', 'e-today') | float }}
          {% endif %}

I hope it will help someone else too.

Hi!
My R5 SAJ Inverter has a Wifi module. The problem is that it seems to do Mac Address randomization, so when it happens to reset, the IP address that I manually set for its MAC address no longer works.
So I need to always scan my network to find the new IP.

This makes the configuration via the yaml file no longer working, because it tries to find info from the old address.

How do you handle this problem?

@BenV

Can you share please you setting which you have used in your PUSR modbus gateway?

Thanks, Frank

Exactly, for AS1 and BS1 this should work, for other SAJ protocols the address are most probably different…

hi Frank,

Please see below my modbus gateway settings:

Also please see after this link the modusprotocols (including baudrate etc needed) for the AS1 and BS1 modules (link)!

Good luck and let me know if it worked out!

Kind regards,

Ben

Hi, I don’t understand this …

And I may have additional issue, I do have 2 inverters in parallel mode, so I will need to double the settings?

Perhaps then use this?

whicxh model do you have? Mine H2-10K

@Ben:
Hi and thanks for sharing.
Will try it this weekend. Will also check the communication at the RS485 line to the smart meter.
There is the possibility, to merge more inverters in parallel mode:

So they need to communicate and do this on RS 485 bus.
I hope, to read the same modbus addresses on the RS 485 bus like on the RS232. The benefit would be keeping the AIO3 working. On RS 485, multiple devices can be present on the bus. On RS 232 the modbus TCP gateway OR the AIO3. Will keep you here informed.

Thanks again and best regrads, Frank

@BenV:
reading values over RS232 is working well, but found a wrong time set of the RTC of the inverter.
It is 7 hours ahead (chinese time) in relation to german time. With holding regsiter 8020H can set the RTC of the inverter. Do you ever did this?

Writing 569154557935168500 to the holfing register (defined a 64 bit unsigned big endian), this is 07E60B0E10052C00 in hex and shoud set the “now” time. My I do setting in the RS232 gateway to send values, writte in the holding register to the inverter?

all the best, Frank

hi Klagio,

So your AIO3 is actualy a usb-dongle (there is a usb port below), this USB port is actually communicateing in RS232 mode (not that common), so you need to identify the communicating wires the usb port uses for the RS232.

With that serial to UTP converter you can indeed converter 2 independent serial ports to utp and if your inverters work independent from each other, that would be the way to go indeed.

Just wondering if your inververters are truly working independent or if one is the slave and the other one master… if that’s the case, you should only use one rs232 port. no harm in getting of course the converter for 2 ports, you can always use only one port… :wink:

Hi Frank,

not sure on the H1 converters (i only have the SAJ battery), so your approach might work (probably one one of the inverters is the masters while the other ones are slaves, so you should connect to that master). Please note that within serial communcation (RS232 and RS485) there can only be one client (one master) polling data, you can poll different devices. The AIO3 is probably also a client, so not sure you would be able to poll simultaneouly on that (just a theory… ;-)).

good luck!

kind regards,

Ben
