Thank you.
Please could you show the next bit - what comes after
entity_id: number.solaredge_i1_storage_discharge_limit
ie what are the variables?
Also some of the entities in my pre-installed YAMLs are of the form d17eca2b9c67371873384b590b0b17f1
rather than number.solaredge_i1_storage_discharge_limit
How are these translated?
That looks more like a device_id than an entity_id
number.solaredge_i1_storage_discharge_limit is an entity_id.
Here’s the complete automation. Bear in mind that I’ve created some input_boolean and some input_number helpers as well as a timer to limit the overall charge period to 4 hours at any single charge window . I’ve also created an option to cope with the daily inverter reset that can happen during a charge window.
