Hi @DanieldaCosta2000 , If you want to be able to change battery settings etc, the Kellerza integration is a good place to start, if you have a Solarman dongle (depending on firmware version but most work) you can change settings, you are however a little restricted on the refresh rate as you can bog the dongle down. Next option is to add a USB-RS485 adapter which are pretty cheap and will allow for a faster refresh rate. 3rd option is to use ESPhome with a ESP32/RS485 Shield, allows for a bit more flexibility with total kwh calculations etc being done on the ESP and takes the load of the Hassio box. The Sunsynk dongle doesn't allow for settings changes (or it didn't last time I looked anyway) and you would need to use a USB-RS485 adapter to change the settings.
thanks, found it later last night, somewhere in the feed i'm loosing values as some of them is 0, waiting for the sun to come up to see if it was Mr moon or if i have a problem.
Hi Just a update on Slipx Dashboard, I also got a blank screen but after a number of hours struggling I managed to sort it out. I had Frigate running on my HA and my CPU was running at around 90% , after stopping Frigate the Dashboard came alive. I run HA on a DELL wyse 5070 with on 4 Gigs ram. After refreshing the Dashboard , all the Data started to reflect. Thanks again for your videos
Hi Thanks for a great video ? Appreciate the time and effort, the Dashboard look great and that's to everyone and the creator. One question, Do you know if I will be able to have Two Sunsynk systems on two separate Dashboards. My system and another person system ? Just worried about the sensor name's etc , that I have duplicated sensor name's ? Thanks again for you time and effort.
Hi, you mention you made a video how to build the Solcast integration, as I have been able to install it, but unable to understand how to create the forecast card, do you have the video please?
Hi @sabkvr , if you go to Integrations, Solcast and then click on the service, it will show you all the entities available from the Solcast integration and give you the option of adding them all to your Dashboard. You can also go to the Github page for the integration where the author has some nice ideas on graphs etc for your Dashboard. github.com/oziee/ha-solcast-solar
Hi @dustins4194 , which ones are you referring to? There are links to the github and dropbox page. Things have also moved on a bit since I did this video so I would suggest downloading the latest files from the Github page.
Hi Harvin, you will probably find that one of the names you have for the entities in the card is incorrect and as a result the card is not displaying. Easiest way to check it out is to open another tab with the Developer Tools/states menu open and check all the entities you have in the card exist and have values there.
Hi @nephelyn123 , not that many people with multiple inverters so there is less information about setting them up etc. Best is to get onto the Powerforum.co.za and have a chat to the guys there. What integration are you using to get your data?
Hi - getting the following error when trying to add the: #######HorseShoe Total Solar Card######### type: custom:flex-horseshoe-card ERROR: No visual editor available for type 'custom:flex-horseshoe-card'.
Hi @marcuskotschan3036 , that is correct, there is no visual editor fore the Horseshoe cards. I struggled with them as well. You need to make sure that all the entities names are correct in your cards YAML file or it will not display which I would guess is probably what your problem is. You can go to developer tools in Home Assistant and check that all the entities being called in the Dashboard are correct. Once you have all the entity names correct it will start displaying straight away. Good luck, let me know how it goes :-)
Thanks @Rattikus I am glad you found it useful, I was concerned about it not being useful to new users. It is a difficult topic as it is way to easy to end up with a 4hr long video and still will not be close to covering 1/2 the options.
For the adjustable grid settings for the inverter , is that accessible via the normal dongle or do you need the fancy direct connection?

Hi @georgelza , did you manage to sort your problem out?
@@SolarIntegrations nope... I'm on Powerforum and EnergyTalk (as georgelza), lets rather talk there.

Glad to hear my video helped and that you managed to work it out @VaughanLundin , it is always a learning process :-)

Hi @VaughanLundin, you can definitely do it but would need to have different sensor names for the second inverter. What integration are you using?

Sure wish all of those links were in the description section

hi , Firstly TQ for your videos - currently after adding first card - got Cannot read properties of undefined (reading state) . Can you help?
Hi Harvin, you will probably find that one of the names you have for the entities in the card is incorrect and as a result the card is not displaying. Easiest way to check it out is to open another tab with the Developer Tools/states menu open and check all the entities you have in the card exist and have values there.
Is there a guide I can follow when I have more that one inverter?

Hi Thanks for the great efforts. I can't seem to be able to access the files in your dropbox ?
That is strange, have you managed to sort it out? I double checked and am able to access them without logging in.
@@SolarIntegrations Apologies ... the error was on my side !!!
@@230tex No problem, glad you are sorted, thanks for letting me know.
