I have now installed my Homey Energy Dongle. Now I have plan to Connect my Solar Panel Inverter(Sungrow), Battery(Sungrow) and EV Carger(Easee), but I can’t find any way to Connect them. I have an App for my EV Charger, but don’t know how to get it to be showen on the Energy page. In the buying advice for Solar Panel it says: To connect to the user’s home network and integrate with Homey Pro, Sungrow inverters require an external communication dongle, available in Wi-Fi or Ethernet versions. Once connected, users can monitor power output, battery levels, solar generation, inverter temperature, total and daily energy yield, and grid import/export data. They can also remotely configure operation modes, set export limits, and adjust charge and discharge parameters. I have an external communication dongle(Wifi) to communicate with the Inverter app iSolarcloud, how do I do to get the information from ISolarCloud to Homey?
There’s 2 apps you can use, one being the Modbus app, but the second app might be easier to use:
And as you can see, using the search bar for sungrow returns exactly that app, SolarEdge + Growatt TCP Modbus:
Yes I ment Homey PRO. The Buying Advice comes from the Energy page under Power ups and Learn More. If I will use Modbus, then I have to switch my Wifi-dongle to a Modbus-dongle and Connect it with a Ethernet cable?
No, modbus also can work via wifi connections.
F.e. I’ve a wifi connected SMA inverter connected to a wifi connected Homey, and read & control it with modbus using the SMA app
