Hi, i probably need to change the “External EMS” parameter, because now i can’t control anything.

The problem is, that i have a case running @Growatt support, so i have to keep everyting the same for now.

From an HA post, i discovered the existance ShineWiLan-X2 for my MOD7000TL3-X inverter. So I purchased it last week and installed it yesterday, removing the white ShineLanBox from my meterkast :-). It also saves me a special Modbus connector and gateway.

Then, I discovered that you provided support form this. I have Homey Pro (2019). Nice.

Happy to test it !! (“have a Homey Pro with port forwarding enabled and configured in your router” - I have not set this up (yet).)

I want to limit the energy/export/output, in order to not export to the grid on my inverter (I have no battery - the TL3-X also does not support that).  
I have set the ‘doelvermogen’. It can be set in steps of 5% of 7000, which seems fine.  
The Homey app/device reflects this nicely.

The ShinePhone app seems to NOT reflect this. But that was a misconception from my part:

- the standard ‘Power’ graph gives the DC side.
- choosing ‘PAC’ (not sure what this. ‘Power AC’? ) nicely reflects the setting.
- (I think I need to create a CR for the ShinePhone) for this.

So for now, I am able to control 1 setting of the inverter. Nice!

I’ve also ordered a ShineWiLan-X2, which should arrive tomorrow. As soon as I have some spare time, I’ll install it, give it a test and share my findings.

Not shure why you’d need that, and it’s a major security risk.  
These connection types don’t need port forwarding:  
API: cloud connection  
ModbusTCP: local connection

Plus, the port forwarding feature is only available for Pro 2023 and newer models.

That is so that I can do a remote cli app install from my development station. That is the only feasible way to analyse and debug a local (modbus) connection for me, since I do not have the hardware myself.

Clear! I didn’t find any instructions concerning port forwarding.  
But it’s still not available for pre Pro 2023 models.

It is not needed for normal app users. Only one-time required for users that want to help me develop the modbus interface.

Yeah I tried to inform @johnv with that info, to save him from searching non-existent port forwarding settings on his

I did not enable this. It was not necessary.

Glad I could help! Thanks for taking the time to add new functions and fix things 🥳
