Inspired by @Peter_H69, I added a `Set export limit` action for the Energy device. I also wrote some [instructions](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-sma-energy-my-home-my-energy-our-climate/696) in the first post of this thread. ---

Hello everyone, I’ve had the problem for 3–4 days now that my inverter no longer displays any values. I’ve had this issue before. Back then, I simply “reinstalled” the device in Homey. Unfortunately, this time it didn’t work. As soon as I search for the inverter in my network, either automatically or with a reserved IP address, it doesn’t find it. Via Sunny Explorer, the settings are still correct. ![Screenshot 2025-08-31 095255](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/4/5/45d74b679728fc88b53c938e5326f4519e71ac30.png) Do you have any idea? ---

Try this, disable and enable the Modbus service @ your inverter ---

**The solution worked, but unfortunately only for three days. After that, I had to repeat the whole process. Does anyone have a permanent fix?** ---

Did you [reserve](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=how+to+reserve+IP+addresses&t=euandroid&ia=web) the inverter’s IP address at your DHCP server? Do you use any network tools like AdGuard, PiHole? Does you inverter send error reports? If not, what do the inverter logs say? Especially at the moment the connection got lost. ---

Hello! I have a Sunny Boy 3.6, a Smart Energy Meter 2, and a Sunny Home Storage system. I asked the installer to enable Modbus for me, which he did. However, when I try to add my battery, the system only detects the ‘‘Smart energy 3.6’’ and shows very few parameters. How can I add the Sunny Home Storage so that I can see its parameters as well? Thank you in advance! ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/2/d/2d3c8a51062f2985da08ec2d1e16af70dba4879a.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/0/007b2ddc06461a25af088380778cb0b3d010fc76.png) ---

> #### Usage of the set export limit action > > To only produce solar power for your usage and not export any power, invoke the action with the value 0. To reset the value back to its original setting, set it to 100. The unit is in %. So, I’ve already an active limitation on my system because the PV production is higher than the grid connection. So, If I put in 100%, what is 100%? Is that, my currently set grid limitation setting OR the maximum available PV production? ---

This are two different things. I set the limitation to 1% and back to 100%. My plant automatically keeps the limitation at 71%, (I have also grid limitation) ---

I’m afraid this is going to be a stab in the dark as I see no references to it here, but… Can this app be used to get data out of the SMA Sunny WebBox? ---

@Richard_B My inverter (Sunny Boy 3300TL HC) is too old (2009) to use with your app since it has no option to enable the Modbus. I however made a connection between PVOrg and the SMA Sunny Portal (that is fed through my connected SMA WebBox). I tried then to connect with your Homey SMA app via the PVOrg option but I get the message that to do this I need to have already an inverter installed. Is there a way to get around this and get my PVOrg production data into my Homey (with energy dongle)? Is creating a virtual device an option? Your guidance is much appreciated. Thank you! ---

I made a connection between PVOrg and my Webbox/Sunny Portal. I’m now looking in getting this PVOrg data into Homey (see my post/question earlier today). ---

Hi, I did find a way to import org data. There is an app PV output that does just that. @Greuntesop If you need help to set this up from your WebBox, let me know. ---

Yes. This is what I did: 1. Activate in your WebBox (transmission page) the SunnyPortal creation. 2. Make an PV org account based on your SunnyPortal (I just followed the steps in the documentation you can find in the About tab) to pull the data into PVOrg a first time. ([Overview — PVOutput documentation](https://pvoutput.org/help/overview.html#getting-started)). 3. Then I followed the steps in the auto-uploader section of the manual to automatically upload to PV Org and connect with the WebBox (use the SMA WebBox as “device”). 4. In the settings page of my PV Org account I Enabled API access and used the API key and system ID to activate the PVoutput app in Homey I hope this helps 🤞 ---

In EnnexOS v2 there is a new feature that allows charging the battery within specific timeframes. Does anyone know if these timeframes can also be changed via the Homey app? It would be great if they could automatically adjust each day based on dynamic prices and weather forecasts. ---

Is there anyone else who is getting the issue with their Homey Pro 2023 or Homey Self Hosted Server crashing doing the below steps: 1. Fresh install on Homey Pro/SHS using either 12.10.0 or 12.10.1 2. Add SMA Energy App 3. Add SMA inverter or power meter 4. Go to Homey energy tab 5. Crash…. My crashes started with the update to 12.10.0 firmware and I am no longer able to use my Homey. This also affects other users using the HomeWizard app, not SMA Energy. Athom blames the apps even though this started with the upgrade to 12.10.0 and it is not only the apps crashing, it is the Homey itself. There is another thread going on for this, but I am not sure I am allowed to cross link to that one ‘Homey keeps going offline since 3 update days ago’. Anyone else seeing this behaviour?
