Can you please explain how to enable it on a solaredge converter? I once tried it but didn’t succeed in using the modbus app ---

please try this [[APP][Pro] SolarEdge + Growatt TCP modbus](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-solaredge-growatt-tcp-modbus/45487) and send me a diagnostic report. mostly it is hard to find the ip address . but maybe you can check if mdns is broadcasted on your phone or laptop . with ip, port and modbus. ![Screen Shot 2023-08-08 at 21.30.07](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/6/f6803125951bef0f7f9ceeef2975fd084460bfb2.png) plus don’t know if they update your firmware regurly ---

did you enable modbus on the inverter see 1st post on the solaredge forum? plus check port , modbus id and if ip is reachable from homey. ---

@Edwin_Biemond @Sjalabert This is off topic as it is about the solar panels app an that doesn’t support Modbus. Please move your messages to the correct thread. ---

Geurt, my apologies. ‘I sat with my hands in my hair for a while’. This is because there are a few flows that this (solar panels) app depends on. Due to my impatience I did not follow the forum rules for a while. My apologies. I’ll move it to the right section. ---

Hi @Diederik can you update us on providing an earlier version of the app through the community app store? That way Omniks user like myself can still use the app like before. Thanks for all the work! 👍 ---

Yes I did. When typing in the wrong password on purpose the app reported that it was wrong. Because of that I did not suspected my firewall. But is was the firewall blocking the communication. Homey is on a different vlan then Envoy. So after permitting communication between the two it was solved. ---

Hello @Diederik is it maybe possible to support opendtu? > **[GitHub - tbnobody/OpenDTU: Software for ESP32 to talk to Hoymiles Inverters](https://github.com/tbnobody/OpenDTU)** > > Software for ESP32 to talk to Hoymiles Inverters. Contribute to tbnobody/OpenDTU development by creating an account on GitHub. That would make many users of Hoymiles&Tsun inverters very happy. 😃 🤩 😍 It would be great to be able to control the output power so that no more than 800w is fed into the power grid. ![pv4](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/c/c/cc17b10cf11814d9d6b709604d6c316bd914ffd1.png) (sorry 800W) ![pv5](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/2/a/2aa36b4302f73f87bc3573955652dd78b7c1f180.png) I could also send you an ESP32 with software opendtu. But we won’t help you much, since there is no inverter attached. Here is a project running on a raspberry: [https://solaranzeige.de/phpBB3/solaranzeige.php](https://solaranzeige.de/phpBB3/solaranzeige.php) Currently I use opendtu and shelly EM for control.

My Solaredge worked fine through Homey for several years. Lately i get message “An unknown error occurred (status 404) while fetching inverter data.” Flows keep working but i cannot view the device directly. Tried reinstalling the app en reconnecting to the Solaredge; that went well… for 10 seconds and the device is unavailable again. But now with differnet error message: Invalid Capability: measure\_voltage.ac Report sended: 71f494ef-9470-4e44-863a-4d87ce3a02d3 [Previous page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-solar-panels-let-the-sun-power-your-home/44273.md?page=14) [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-solar-panels-let-the-sun-power-your-home/44273.md?page=16)
