Sadly, I have decided to remove this app from the store as I have not been able to get any support from Solarman regarding the rate limit. I knew about the rate limits per 10 seconds and coded around that, but there was no mention of a total limit in the documentation. Solarman support has increased…

[image] Mannni: Would it be possible to add an user-input for the API-Key I did consider that but obtaining a key from Solarman is not easy and Athom wouldn’t allow that method for Homey (cloud). My code for the old app is still in my GitHub repo GitHub - AdyRock/ady.solarman so if anyone wa…

[image] Rrrr: FYI also problems here, perhaps join the effort? The MODBUS app won’t work with the Sofar inverters as the MODBUS packet is wrapped inside their V5 packet.

Yes, but it seems like the guys there are trying to add more inverters like the Huawei to the SolarEdge+Growatt TCP modbus app. I was hoping to find some synergies to your efforts.

Unfortunately, I have to admit that I lack the skills to connect otherwise. Did I understand correctly that if I want to transfer data to the Homey device, I will not be able to see it in the Solarman cloud?

I appreciate your trying to help and it makes me think, so thank you for that, and please keep suggesting things and asking questions as it could spark an idea. But at the end of the day, the issue is tracking down register maps for each model of inverter. I have found the misleading https error m…

[image] Vahur_Tamuri: Did I understand correctly that if I want to transfer data to the Homey device, I will not be able to see it in the Solarman cloud? No, that’s not the case. The inverters can update both local Homey and Solarman cloud. I can see my data in both, but I never use the Solar…

Here, in fact, the Homey developers themselves could show their good sales work and make it clear to Sofar the possible added value of their product in cooperation with Homey and Adrian. Thank you for your efforts - Adrian. I just managed to add a panel and inverter with Sofar 1.1.13 SUPER - Hope…

Great! That means your SOFAR 15000TL-G2 MODBUS TCP address 01 is now sharing its data with the cloud (rate limited) and locally (unlimited) with your Homey. @Adrian_Rockall Great job and thanks so much for your hard work!

The data didn’t start showing until the morning when I had to restart the Sofar app. Is there a possible solution here, or does Homey have to restart the app every morning?

Could you check the log to see if there are any errors? I normally have the app running for weeks at a time and it only gets restarted if I’m adding new features or when Homey updates.

No, that’s not the case. The inverters can update both local Homey and Solarman cloud. I can see my data in both, but I never use the Solarman app anymore as it’s too slow. The local connection updates Homey every 10 seconds whereas the cloud is limited to about 10 minutes.
