Correct, the beta version is still overdue to become stable. I am not 100% happy with the new modbus rewrite I did. I have spent a number of hours rewriting it again, just to throw that code away since I was still not happy. Now vacation for a week, maybe I will manage a third rewrite once back ![]()
Hello Richard,
The only thing i would like to read from Victron are the GPS Latitude and Longitude.
Is there a way you kan make those coordinates available?
Hello
I have a problem with this card. It says it is false but battery SOC is 65%.
When i first made the flow it worked but not now.
Try values for percentage betreen 0.01 and 1.00 for 1 to 100 percent. Homey usually uses that internal notation.
Did not help unfortunately.
It seems that homey loses connection with the app after a while. I need to restart the app to refresh the data.
Other app, but want to share Iâve the same issue with modbus and a wifi connected Homey (SMA app, but itâs not an app fault). A user reported it works fine again with an ethernet connected Homey.
Howâs your Homey connected @Dirk_vdM ?
Itâs connected through ethernet.
OK. You could consider installing Net Scan app to monitor the Homey > router and the Homey > Victron device connections.
Perhaps the connection drops sometimes.
I would like to ask when the new version of the application will be available? The current testing version is very unstable and difficult to work with on a regular basis.
If it becomes possible that a hacker gains access to my Homey-Pro, I do not want him to be able to switch off my Quattro 10kVA or change any settings. Can the APP be separated in a monitor ONLY part (plus separate Settings Part) ? Or can a Password be set to prevent changing any settings or switching off the Inverter ?
I am not sure, but is Minimum SoC not the value you set where mains or generator should start taking over the load? (e.g. 25%). Should it not be just SoC ?
I think it is a bit confusing, wonder who wished for this condition to start with - donât recall. But this is not comparing agains current SoC, this is checking the âESS Minimum SoC (unless grid fails)â setting. Since long the built in battery capability is used for displaying SoC.
No thoughts on something similar today. If you have modbus enabled on your GX device an attacker doesnt need to use your Homey - it can go straight to the GX device from anything on your local network.
Athom has updated to the Energy concept and for a home battery we need to provide energy import and exported from the battery as well. Anyone knows which modbus registries we could use for that?
- Imported energy refers to the energy charged by the battery.
- Exported energy refers to the energy discharged by the battery.
New test version has just been released with improved Modbus socket handling. The EV charger has also been updated to comply with the Energy concept.
I donât think there are any specific registers for Consumed vs Charged Kwh.
In my Home Assistant setup I have to check if reported register is negative then its consumption and if its positive its charging, and do some calculations on that for Home Assistants Energy measuring stuff to get it right.

Hello,
In the Homey âEnergyâ section, the âElectricity Totalâ graph shows only âImportedâ and âExportedâ data from the grid (blue line), but it does not accurately display the true total household consumption that includes energy from my solar panels and battery (as seen in the attached screenshot). The graph for âTotalâ seems to be showing only grid data.
How can I configure Homey to display this actual total household consumption data from my Victron GX in the Energy sectionâs graph, combining all sources (grid, solar, battery)?
Not sure I follow completely, but you need to add to your Homey all the devices from all your providers. If you have energy meter, solar and battery connected in Victron then you add a Solar device, a Battery device and a Energy Meter device using the Victron Homey app and make sure they are included in Homey Energy.
I you scroll up a little you see I asked for cumulative import and export to the battery. If we cant show that we canât show the complete picture. Seems like Victron doesnt offer that through modbus.
Hi and thnaks for a great app. I have added a temp sensor as a device from victon in homey and works perfectly. But when i try to add one more temp sensor i get âunit not foundâ. Same ip adress. and used the id that shows in victron vrm. Is it limited to only one temp sensor in Homey?
