In this tutorial I would like to show you how to read out the data of a Hoymiles Microinverter with an OpenDTU and corresponding Homey apps via MQTT.  
My equipment:

- Homey Pro (early 2023)
- [Hoymiles Microinverter HM-1500](https://www.hoymiles.com/de/product/microinverter/hm-1200-1500/)
- [Diamex DX-DTU-Klassik](https://www.diamex.de/dxshop/DX-DTU-Klassik-mit-kleinem-OLED-Display-096-242-cm) incl. [OpenDTU](https://github.com/tbnobody/OpenDTU) software

**Disclaimer**  
As I’m not an IT expert and I mainly learned about MQTT myself, it is quite possible that I didn’t take available safety features into account or didn’t take them into account correctly. Anyone who uses this tutorial acts at their own risk. I take no responsibility for any security problems. Experienced users can always make suggestions to improve security. I would check these and update the tutorial accordingly if the integration is still working.

# Requirements

> **Summary**
>
> - Homey Pro
> - Hoymiles Microinverter
> - OpenDTU or AhoyDTU
> - [MQTT Broker](https://homey.app/en-de/app/nl.scanno.mqttbroker/MQTT-Broker/test/) (Test version v3.0.4)
> - [MQTT Client](https://homey.app/en-de/app/nl.scanno.mqtt/MQTT-Client/)
> - [Device Capabilities](https://homey.app/en-de/app/nl.qluster-it.DeviceCapabilities/Device-Capabilities/test/) (Test version v2.15.4)

> 
> Instead of the _ **MQTT Broker** _ and _ **MQTT Client** _ app, the [MQTT Server](https://homey.app/en-de/app/net.weejewel.mqttserver/MQTT-Server/) app can also be used as an alternative.

# Advanced Virtual Device

> **Summary**
>
> Now you should begin to think about what data you need from the Microinverter to visualize them in Homey, because the next step is to create a corresponding an **A** dvanced **V** irtual **D** evice.  
> Information on how an AVD is generally created can be found in the topic [[APP][Pro] Advanced Virtual Device (Device Capabilities App) with Unique Text Status Indicator](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-advanced-virtual-device-device-capabilities-app-with-unique-text-status-indicator/68198). Therefore, I will only mention a few important points here. If you still have problems with the creation, you can of course ask for help.

# Flow

> **Summary**
>
> In order to transfer the values from the Microinverter resp. from the OpenDTU into the AVD, a flow must be created. This is possible with both the standard and the advanced flows, but I will only show it using an Advanced Flow.  
> As trigger flow card (When…) the following flow card of the MQTT Client App is needed:
> 
> ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/9/f/9f29af26b1ed429454a99d78c7fc288d405f1a53.png)
> 
> As action flow card (Then…) the following flow card of the previously created AVD device (Capabilities App) is needed:
> 
> ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/9/4/94d4af3982ebf7c57b9d10c0ff360803d576861b.png)
> 
> Use this scheme to create as many flows as you have created number fields in the AVD. In the AVD flow card select a predefined number field for each flow and set the second drop down selection to _ **nothing else** _.
> 
> It should look like this:
> 
> ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/5/350d1e3e1643854f4326c4ea6768b17b58f22a70.png)
> 
> Now we have to find out which “message”, the so-called topic, has to be filled into the MQTT Client Flow card. To do this, we open the MQTT Explorer on the PC/Mac and connect to Homeys MQTT Broker:
> 
> ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/0/30212eef9d14cddebdc598066dadcd48a97bcff9.png)
> 
> If the Homey MQTT Broker and the MQTT Explorer have been set up correctly, a new window will appear which looks like this:
> 
> ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/b/5/b53a59fcf0721e537bf899644797ade114fb69db.png)
> 
> If you haven’t connected any other devices via MQTT yet and haven’t changed anything in the MQTT setup in the OpenDTU, you should see below the Homey IP address and an entry named **solar** :
> 
> ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/4/b/4b68053e5690d99005ee17754cc2c2649c786978.png)
> 
> If the entry has a different name, please check in the menu _ **Info → MQTT** _ or the MQTT settings (pls. see screenshot in the **OpenDTU** section above) of the OpenDTU what the Base Topic is called.  
> Now search for the data you want to integrate. To do this, click on the arrow ▶ in front of the name of the Basic Topic to open further submenus.  
> What is important to me is how much power and energy the Microinverter feeds into the house power grid. That’s why I want to import the data from the ac submenu to Homey:
> 
> ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/a/fae007c38e818edeb52f0c1bfe4da99efd61c2bf.png)
> 
> To find out the full name of the topic, e.g. “Power”, simply click on “Power” and the complete topic will appear in the top right-hand corner. Then just click on “Copy to clipboard” and insert the topic into the correct flow card:
> 
> ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/8/8869fe7c40c1943c01f3ee0270167883e5c676e8.png)

> 
> After the topic has been filled in, you have to select the corresponding Tag 🏷 in the AVD flow card:
> 
> ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/d/c/dc6d1cdabdb537d73705f593436c9bc0b907ba44.png)  
> (Make sure that both Flow cards are already connected first!)
> 
> Repeat the same steps for the next flow cards.  
> As already pointed out in one of the screenshots, my inverter/OpenDTU provides YieldDay in Wh. If you want, you can use an additional logic flow card to convert this value into kWh automatically.

I have 2 micro inverters with integrated WiFi (HMS-2000DW-4T) and on the OpenDTU page it says that they are not supported (All inverters with integrated WiFi which can be identified by the “W” in the name (e.g. HMS-xxxW) are not supported by OpenDTU). Is there any other solution?

</div>

That’s right, they aren’t supported by OpenDTU and AhoyDTU.  
But I don’t know if there is an other way to integrate them, sorry.

The only thing what comes into my mind is to use a SmartPlug or an in-wall module to get the energy consumption.

Dear Dirk,

Thnks for the very nice guide, so I have finished all the steps except the " Advanced Virtual Device " I cant find a device class solar in the app?

Can you help me please?

Device Capabilities Test version v2.15.4 installed.

Thanks,

- mobile app: longpress device tile \> maintenance \> try to repair
- web app: right click device tile \> Repair
- 

It’s a bit odd, but the “repair” function is used by the dev to create a custom app settings page.

Hi @Senad_Aruc,

I’m glad that @Peter_Kawa was able to help you.

It may be because the “Exclude from energy” switch is set to “Yes” in the AVD’s advanced settings, but I’m not sure.  
What is more likely is that after adding a device, it takes a while for the values to be displayed in the Energy Dashboard.

So please check the setting and be patient. Values should be displayed in the Energy Dashboard by tomorrow at the latest.

Dear DirkG,

Thanks for the help and “Exclude from energy” switch is “No” at the AVD. I setup everything from the last night, and still nothing at Enery tab on Homey.

On the web app of Homey I can see the current production on statistics, but not in the Power tab in mobile app!

I can’t tell you why, but I think ticking the “create real field and flowcards” boxes for both power & energy sensors might be the difference.

About the top right indicator: Your “Home” isn’t using any energy?

Man, that energy thing is the worst product ever made by Athom. In my humble opinion that is.  
And “of course” there’s no logs available to discover what’s going wrong?

Now you can still wait until tomorrow, like @DirkG advised.  
I’ve read somewhere some “day” measurements are calculated at the end of the day, and thus only visible the next day.  
But I can’t find that post with that info anymore.

any plans to make a hoymiles app which would simplify this whole setup?  
also do we have access to dim the output? (curtailment)
