  1. You have to restart the script or do it on reboot...
  2. Hi See mine attached. dbus-pvoutput new.py
  3. Hi I created a folder on my CerboGX and then run the script by doing the following. > nohup /usr/bin/python /data/dbus-pvoutput.py & >/data/pvoutput_output.log Please note - I have little clue about how or why etc. It has worked and I don't fiddle...
  4. Plonkster has it here in GitHub. "This is something I've wanted to do for a long time. This is very raw still, probably needs a lot more work, and of course you need a CCGX, Venus-GX, or you need to run Venus on your Raspberry Pi. Nevertheless, here it is." Enjoy!
  5. Hi Jason Do you still have any of these available. I'm happy to pay Postnet... Regards Mark
  6. Thanks plonkster... wired spec'd for breaker would be a better option for me... in the 1 N and out the other.
  7. What type of fuse and size cable do you wire from N to N? Thanks Mark
  8. Mine with original fans hovers between 25 and 50 deg...
  9. The GX Touch might work if you are close enough but I think you have to supply the USB power. https://www.victronenergy.com/panel-systems-remote-monitoring/cerbo-gx
  10. I have added an old cellphone as my display in the kitchen with remote display from the GX. Cheapest option I think, and does exactly the same thing! An old tablet would be bigger
  11. Thanks for the help @plonkster - much appreciated. I have a feed working and hope to refine a improve it a bit!

  13. Hi @plonkster Thanks for reply... to clarify and I see above I forgot to mention I have no multi connected (sorry for misinfo). 2x MPPT's and a battery (Pylon) on the BMS CAN. A Cerbo received yesterday and I would like to capture MPPT production to PVO and EMONCMS. Using your PVO code and Paul's EMONCMS modification of your code... I have tried the hard coding of the above: vebus = 'com.victronenergy.vebus.ttyS4' But I guess it still needs the multi to respond... Regards Mark
  14. @plonkster I don't have an energy meter and was wondering if you could advise. I get the following error... Th Thanks for the reply. Is there a chance I can "give it a value" in some way to get over this issue? or get rid of this check Regards Mark

  16. Hi @jjordaan If the user has specified coordinates correctly then go to the map on their PVO page (click their name on the list). It will pull up their location. Regards Mark
  17. Hi If the PT's are OK and can be switched on then hopefully the Kodak MPPT will charge them when the sun rises (even if its off) Thats how the Axpert used to work. Try and get them (PT's) started ie into standby mode. I assume they are now below the cutoff voltage of the Kodak and so the inverter doesn't start. The next thing is to try and get the inverter to start on Grid only... I don't know if this is possible with the Kodak but if it's similar to the Axpert Hybrid it should be possible if its not damaged. Hope this works... Regards Mark
  18. Hi @GreenMan Grahamstown, EC.
  19. Used but in great condition. Moved to Lithium so don't need the Mid Point monitoring anymore. Comes in original box with all original cables and manuals. Small mod to the plastic nut to allow for a thicker mounting surface. Not visible and has zero effect on functionality. R2500 (slightly negotiable) - Buyer pays postage. https://www.victronenergy.com/battery-monitors/bmv-702
  20. Are any of these still for sale Chris?
  21. This new addition looks great as well! https://www.victronenergy.com/panel-systems-remote-monitoring/cerbo-gx Got everything!
  22. Hi Jaco Yes it is... DM me please Regards Mark
