The local_sofar_inverter component is a Home Assistant integration that creates custom sensors for local monitoring your Sofar inverter.
It reads data from your inverter page, so you dont need to connect to any 'cloud'
When there is no sun, tthere is no PV energy so integration doesnt ask your inverter about it
Returns:
- current power
- today's energy
- total energy
- inverter errors
My 1st HA component so be polite :)
- Download the latest release.
- Unpack the release and copy the
custom_components/local_sofar_inverterdirectory into thecustom_componentsdirectory of your Home Assistant installation. - Restart Home Assistant.
- Configure in the normal way by adding integration via HA website
via HA webpage
- give ur inverter ID, username & password to login
- set how often ask ur inverter
- set minimal sun elevation when DONT ask inverter (he can be offline)
