is it possible to control the amount of backup battery reserveration on solaredge through the app? i cant find it, if it doesn’t exist then this doubles is a feature request i see this in the documentation but no flow card E008 (F708) 2 R/W Storage Backup Reserved Setting Float32 0-100 % i have the new homehub recently installed ---

Hi, can’t seem to get it working and it i am getting slightly insane! 🙂 i have a growatt MOD 4KTL3-XH + battery i use a waveshare RS485-TO-ETH converter and connected pin 3 and 4 from connector to A and B (and switched them several times during faultfinding). set the waveshare to required settings ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/1/f1e8cc663380acf41c0db8f8071a599c4614d603.png) When adding the inverter in the app (tried all 3 since not entirely clear) i see RX data on my waveshare, (assuming homey is polling) but no TX (assuming no data from inverter) can it be “polling freq”? but where do i set this? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/2/026b41b9843697e0d27d2b061fbb4c093b4f7bb0.png) Growatt Tech Helpdesk has activated VPP upon my request. (ticket still open btw, since no luck, maybe there’s more?) removed USB (LAN) dongle when trying and -obviously- restarted inverter several times during the above excercise what am i missing here?? any help greatly appreciated diag report 49fe5f60-1bc3-49f8-ab58-27e14eaed6f2 if need be kind regards sander ---

Hi Edwin, thnx for the great work. I seem to have a similar problem, to solaredge converter, one a master one a slave, connected by rs485. I activated modbus tcp on both machines. I can read the data from the master without any problem. The data from the slave were ok, till it froze. Any suggestions. Thnx again Rob ---

@sandirt, Hi Sander, what I checked with my settings, Waveshare IP = same IP to use in the Homey APP. Serial port parameters are equal to mine. Your screenshots indicate IP x.253 whilst your waveshare is at IP x.99 This info any use to you? ---

have the same setup as you. read both out on own ip and its modbus port , master slave both have their own battery and master has the meter connected to it. maybe you can ask solaredge support. for me after some firmware upgrades it was a lot of work to make it stable, in the end factory reset helped for me. ---

Hello Edwin, I have a question with this app. I want to use the solar power value to switch other gear on and off but the value only seems to update occasionally. I can ping the inverter but the values in homey vary from 3 to 11 hrs ago. I already reserved the ip for my solaredge inverter in my router so that it will always be the same. Do you have any idea what i do wrong? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/d/f/dfb13632aa802177cedcf3e302359debf4b24f1e.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/1/f/1fb5e0295cae94f6c16ce7b064ff829a0d026548.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/2/326eeb89a9f08c619198b1f5b4ceaec4f6883ec0.png) ---

is the inverter on lan or on wifi.? solaredge is mostly stable or homey is too busy etc. ah , are you doing another app like home assistent or double on homey. so on modbus only 1 app can have the connection ( I release it when done , maybe others are not doing that ). others will get blocked. use a modbus proxy then. ---

Works like a charm with the regular/normal Growatt Inverter. Just asking here Edwin, but would it be possible to set refresh param on the Growatt + Battery device as well? Currently I have 2 diifferent devices, normal Growatt Inverter with updates every 10 seconds and Growatt+Battery device with updates every 30 seconds 🙂 If it’s not possible then don’t worry about it 🙂 Thanks again for your dedication 🫶 ---
