Hi everyone, I have a question I hope someone can help me with or at least point me to the right direction. We have PV installed and they are connected to two inverters, StecaGrid 2500 and 2000. I can check the yield via 3rd party apps but it is not live data. However, I have been able to connect t…

Did you try all the Solar Apps that exist? Then maybe Webhooks is something you can use? Or else Homey Developer

Hi @JPe4619 Thanks for your reply. It should be possible to use this app Solar Panels App for Homey | Homey . But I do not have any of the listed inverters. The only thing I could maybe use is the PVoutput, but not sure how to upload data there and how to use it :slightly_frowning_face:

Hi, did you succeed in your intent?

I also have a stecagrid inverter (coolcept 4200) labelled als solar frontier. I have tried to read out this information using homeyscript. That looked very good and must be possible. The information can be stored in a virtual device to be used in homey app’s and flows. I didn’t complete this, becaus…

Well I found the homeyscript I was working on. It looks like it is working properly, getting current power and energy by local API-call to the inverter. It save’s these values in 2 tag’s that can be used in other flow’s/scripts. This way you can make a flow that triggers at your liking (f.i. once e…

I am interested as I got a Solar Frontier that seems to listen/expose itself as a Steca. Just got news from Solar Frontier platform they will quit end of march their service. I got bash shell scripts but I recon a Homeyscript would work better.

Hello @Jeroen_Tebbens Here you go (replace ip-address with your inverter) // Script die voor zonnepanelen het huidige vermogen en opgewekte energie (huidige dag) ophaalt uit de SF-WR-4200 omvormer // ophalen huidige vermogen let url = "http://<replace inverter ip>/gen.measurements.table.js"; cons…

Almost! Power: 0 Energy: 2.17 Warning: setTagValue(id, opts, value) is deprecated, please use tag(id, value) Warning: setTagValue(id, opts, value) is deprecated, please use tag(id, value) ——————————————————— :white_check_mark: Script Success :leftwards_arrow_with_hook: Returned: undefined

Ok, almost great ;-), I assume you can solve this yourself (see example-tag.js) I think most elegant solution is to create a virtual sola panel device and open that one in this script en set corresponding capabilities.

Fixed the tag. Yeah already have virtual solar device that I sync with webhook. Thx!
