solar-sunsynk's Issues

Missing sensors

I was using the sensors _loadOrEpsPower and _gridormeterpower for house load and grid load respectively. Having updated today, all the sensors are renamed and I can't find these two values.

None of the numbers for any entities seem to match.

Not a issue but a compliment

Thanks for creating this. I'll check my logs and report any issues. Been using it for a week or so and just want to say thanks!!

Extremely chatty with the api.sunsynk.net?

I've just disabled this on my HomeAssistant as when reviewing my AdGuard logs i noticed it was hammering my DNS with api.sunsynk.net with requests (6 million requests in the last 30 days). I suspect i have something misconfigured or made a mistake - but thought i should raise it in case its actually a bug or bad default setting.

Triple checked I'm using the right credentials. Is it possible you're only connecting to Region 1?

Can't switch Grid Charge 1-6 or Gen Charge 1-6 on

Is there a guide for all the options the service can control? What does mondayOn do for example? There's nothing in the official UI that seems to correspond.

I'm using this in a script. It changes the other settings but the time1on true/false options (including 1 to 6) don't take effect. The existing settings remain.

cap1 to cap6 do take effect.

sequence:
  - service: solar_sunsynk.set_solar_settings

      sn: "xxxxx"
      sellTime1: "01:00"

      sellTime4: "13:00"
      sellTime5: "17:00"

TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable

Hi Morne

I have been running Solar-Sunsynk for many months without problem - Many Thanks! But it now has started hanging with the error below. If I restart Home Assistant it works for a few minutes, then the error recurrs.

Please can you help?

I am running v1.05 on 3.6Kw inverter in UK.

=======================================
This error originated from a custom integration.

Integration stopped working

It was working just fine, but last 19 hours it's done nothing.

Sunsynk platform is accessible, is there a way I can refresh the integration or has something changed?

Sorry, duplicate post.

Sensors using wrong units (kWh insted of W)

I've just grabbed the latest version and can see it's looking great!

I think units kWh are being used instead of W and also device class "power" should be "energy" on some sensors.

Sensors such as sensor.sunsynk_X_gridormeterpower are showing kWh where they should be W. They have the correct device_class: power

Sensors such as sensor.sunsynk_X_emonth has the correct units but device_class: power should be device_class: energy as they are power over time (energy) - aside from a slightly different icon I don't really know what difference it makes but I'm mentioning it anyway!

Thanks for the great work.

API documentation

Thanks for your API documentation it's proving invaluable for a solar optimization project I'm involved in. In return, can I offer something I've gleaned from elsewhere - I believe json key for 'Use Timer' is {"peakAndVallery": "1"} (including spelling mistake!)
Also, according to my testing for Work Mode:
0 = Selling first (= Zero Export off, Solar Export off, Limit to Load only off)
1 = Zero Export + Limit to Load Only (= Zero Export on, Solar Export on, Limit to Load only on)
2 = Limited to Home (= Zero Export on, Solar Export on, Limit to Load only off)

cheers
Mark

Thank you.

Thanks for creating this.

I also found https://github.com/slipx06/sunsynk-power-flow-card which gives a nice UI to the data. I've not managed to line up all the numbers properly yet - but thought you might like to see it.

1.0.8 fails to start

HA reports that 1.0.8 fails to setup.

Reverting to 1.0.6 fixes the problem.

Error doing job: Future exception was never retrieved

Not available in HACS, I had to add it as a custom hacs repository.

I have no synsynk sensors and my home assistant log is filled with this repeating error:
