Use account (username/password) from [SEMS Portal](https://www.semsportal.com/) 2. When you open detail in SEMS Portal, in url you find your SYSTEM ID required for creating device (something like [https://www.semsportal.com/powerstation/powerstatussnmin/xxxx-xxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxx](https://www.semsportal.com/powerstation/powerstatussnmin/xxxx-xxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxx) - these “xxx” represent number you have to copy as SYSTEM ID 3.

I suggest use **Virtual Devices**. This application will allow you to monitor individual parameters of the inverter on one screen. Virtual Devices [https://homey.app/en-gb/app/com.arjankranenburg.virtual/Virtual-Devices/](https://homey.app/en-gb/app/com.arjankranenburg.virtual/Virtual-Devices/) Here is guide how to setup it: [https://community.homey.app/t/howto-set-a-value-to-a-virtual-device/45883](https://community.homey.app/t/howto-set-a-value-to-a-virtual-device/45883) This is what the result might look like: ![photo_2022-08-01_10-36-46](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/5/8/58ae0d609e85aba28782451a118829265d91b109.jpeg) ---

@Lintin Default interval is 5 minutes, inverter also report only every 5 minutes, so it doesn´t make sense poll more often. ---

Hi, since this morning the app throws this error {“'language”:“en”“function”: ['ADD"“UNBIND”|, hasError":true’msg"“T , ““code”:“innerexception”“data”:”; comp onents”: ('para":“{'model":{'PowerStationld": 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx}”“langVer”:1 53 “timeSpan”:3131 6,'api":“[http://eu.semsportal.com:82/api/v2/PowerStation/GetMonitorDetailByPowerstationld](http://eu.semsportal.com:82/api/v2/PowerStation/GetMonitorDetailByPowerstationld)” … } When I restart the app the error shortly disappears, but then (I assume after using api to get the data the first time) the error is shown again (red sign with ! Next to the goodwe device). Anyone else experiencing this issue? ---

Suddenly the error disappeared. Seems to have been a problem on sems/goodwe site! ---

@Michal_Stranik Is this problem fixed? I got the same issue. ---

Around midday CEST the error didn’t appear again after I restarted the app. As I didn’t recognize any app update, I think the issue has been on sems/goodwe site. In parallel i tried to install another solar app which also connects with goodwe. I wasn’t able to do so at that time. I just tried a moment ago and it works now. ---

Hi @Thorpedo @rikadoo , sorry, but I can´t fix something, what is not broken : ) It seems to be problem of Goodwe, their API is not reliable. I suggest contact their support. When I contacted them some time ago, they wrote me, they can´t/won´t help me with API, so there is nothing I can do about these fails. App I made just use their API and if it fails … ---

Thanks for the reply, well then this app is useless for me ☹ I will follow this app, maybe in the future when GoodWe fixed his API i will be usefull. Thanks for the work! ---

Hi @Michal_Stranik , have you looked into to send commands via this app to GoodWe? I have the battery solution and would love to be able to choose from triggers (electric prize) when the battery should start chargning/dischargning.
