Ok, so is that also the reason there is only becomes greater than or less than cards? Feels like a “changed” card would be better since you can use the built in logic cards to check if the value becomes higher or lower than a given value when it changes.

Will have a look to see if I can find any info regarding the modbus doc and what is available.

are you not seeing “The solar power changed” change trigger? and “Total Yield changed”

I guess you can calculate this . or I can do this and reset this value at midnight like I do for solaredge

Nope, I only see a lot of becomes greater or less than. Would rather trade all of them to changed cards. Only one changed at the bottom of the list for the battery level.

Replying myself here, found some info in [this thread](https://community.home-assistant.io/t/sig-energy-system-integration/760448/76) over at the HA community. Seems that Sigenergy is working on something, but I guess time will tell unless I get a response from them.

Since yesterday i have some strange behaviour on my Solaredge intervers. I have a flow which changes the Export limit to 0 if the timber price is below 0, and back to 17250 if it is above 0 again. Since yesterday the Active Power Limit is also set, and on 100%.. so now only the battery is charged and no more export. tried to change is back to 0 with a flow, but it automatically changes back.. I’m not sure but have the idea that this is since the latest update.. Experimental 3.0.196 By the way, doe anyone know if i should set the power Control on RRCR or CosPhi?

I have this flow but solar panels did not stop:

The SolarEdge app itself stopped the panels to soon and now not at all.

need to test it but I think export or production limit changes the active limit all the time to honor the export value. this is done by the inverter

there is no change on solaredge for a few years. I think active limit was the last change.

so what do you want to achieve here. no export but still charging to the max? and back to the default. ( disable limit mode and max self consumption should be ok for that )

I believe you cannot do both , handle by solaredge and by you. solaredge will revert your changes.

Indeed, it seems that the following function no longer works.

active power limited to 0

The idea was when i set export to 0 that all the power used AND battery charge is done bij solar. but as you can see on the pictures only the battery is charged, and the power use is taken from the net.. I have let Solaredge set my firmware back to 4.17.46 because the newer firmware’s don’t work with homey anymore.

Then the setapp and connect direct to the inverter. (scan the QR on the side of the inverter)

let me check it also, got latest firmware with 2 inverters and 2 batteries. I expect set export limit to 0 and max self consumption should work. ( or maybe set charging to 1500w with remote control and a fixed charging).

> Purpose The difference of this app and the already existing solar panels app is that this app reads the data directly from the inverter. The solaredge api and others are mostly limited to 300 calls/ day, so you get only updates every 10-15 minutes. The modbus app receives data every few seconds. If you have the Solaredge energy monitor installed you can maximize your self-consumption and limit your exported power by using it. You can make flows based on your generated solar power, exported p…

thanks for the information. i have been using the app for years to my satisfaction. the function has also worked in the past but not anymore. i do not know since when it stopped working because i have not used the function for a year of 2

I think it has something to do with the new dynamic prices app feature plus new firmware upgrade.  
else disable that part in the app and make a solaredge support call to fix it from their side. if default values on power control does not work.
