I try to connect my solar panel system to HA. I have a SolarEdge inverter. Following the instructions in the HA-documentation I added to my configuration.yaml file:
# Solar panels
sensor:
- platform: solaredge_local
name: SolarEdge
ip_address: 192.168.2.15
And got error message:
duplicated mapping key (60:1)
57 | name: RC1 4-4
58 |
59 | # Solar Panels
60 | sensor:
------^
61 | - platform: solaredge_local
Then I changed the yaml to:
# Solar panels
solaredge_local:
- sensor: solaredge_local
name: SolarEdge
ip_address: 192.168.2.15
which was accepted without an error.
I restarted HA and got error message:
The solaredge_local integration does not support YAML configuration
(Error ⸱ Reported by Home Assistant Core Integration)
The solaredge_local integration does not support configuration via YAML file.
You may not notice any obvious issues with the integration, but any configuration settings defined in YAML are not actually applied.
So I deleted the additions to the yaml.config file and went via Settings/Devices and services to Integrations, tried to add the solaredge_local integration and got the message:
This integration cannot be added from the UI
You can add this integration by including it in your 'configuration.yaml'. See the documentation for more information.
And I was back where I begun …
What did I do wrong?
