@Benji Thanks for sharing your files. I see you use a temperature controller to switch the fans on. 1. Are you pushing the air down or pulling the air up behind the Sunsynk inverter? 2. Where have you placed the Temp sensor? 3. If you are pulling the air up, did you add fans at the bottom to push the air up to help? 4. Can the Temp controller be connected to the Sunsynk Inverter to measure the temperature? I like to see people's comments on this.

Guys, If I turn off my timer at night the Grid starts charging my batteries. I don't want the grid to charge my batteries, only want my solar to charge my batteries. I don't have GRID or Gen ticked. Pls assist Thanks

@iiznh Thanks for the excellent work, Can you tell me which sensors on the power flow card which is essential & which are None essential? I have a pool & geyser on the None essential and like to show the icon and the power ( watts ) separately. Thanks

Guys solved my problem. I forgot to remove R7 resister on the RS485 board and now all my Data looks good. No night solar power etc. I thought I had bought really good solar panels with nighttime solar power. So you must remove the R7 Resistor for Sunsynk 8k Invertor. @slipx @Sc00bs

Guys why would my Esp32 and rs485 be showing incorrect data. Example my solar showing 6700w and it Night time. My grid power is a negative -1,217 Could be my wiring in the boards etc Thanks

Thanks @Sc00bs appreciate it. Was thinking that when I watched your video earlier.

Well done @McGuywer, excellent. Also got min sorted today by adding a new RS485 board. For some reason the board got damaged even though the RED led lights up. I thought the problem was because of all the updates on Esphome and Dashboard updates. So now I bought extra boards. What do you power your ESP32 board with ?

Guys eventually got my Esp32 & RS485 working again. The problem was the RS485 board not sure what happened to it. Added a new board and all data started coming through. Something things I learned. 1. Don't need two pairs of wires coming from the your RS45. Only need the orange ( goes to A on RS485 ) and the orange/white (goes to B on the RS485) 2. If you get this error " 21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=150 count=1 " I was told to increase your Modbus_controller update_interval. When I increased this the error went away. 3. I read that don't add power to the RS485 from the ESP32 only connect the ground and not the 5v. Hope this all correct but it seems to be working fine now. What I am concerned about is that I read that you should power the ESP32 Dev board with 3v and not 5v ? I am using a phone charger and usb cable to power the ESp32 dev board, is this going to cause a problem ? Thanks

Guys on the Sunsynk 8KVA what must your MODBUS SN number be to use the ESP32Dev board & RS485 ? Must it be left as 1 or changed to 0 ? I struggle to get data from the inverter Everything was working fine for months, did ESPhome updates and Slipx updates and now receiving no data. Re-flashed etc a number of times etc. No luck Thanks

Guys, can you help, I see others get this error. 21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=150 count=1 [21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=154 count=1 [21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=160 count=1 [21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=164 count=1 [21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=166 count=4 [21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=172 count=1 [21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=175 count=4 Also, my sensors is unknown How did you resolve this error, duplicated Modbus ?

Hi Slipx, When you say the name has change? Which name has changed would that be ? Thanks

@slipx Hi slipx, can you tell me what this is, not sure where to find the problem and fix it. Its show in the logs of my ESP32 dev board 21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=150 count=1 [21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=154 count=1 [21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=160 count=1 [21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=164 count=1 [21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=166 count=4 Thanks

@slipx I have found this in my ESPhome : 21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=150 count=1 [21:51:58][W][modbus_controller:136]: Duplicate modbus command found: type=0x3 address=154 count=1

@slipx Hi Slipx I have not been on my system for about 2 months and now have upgraded Dashboard but now only my Sensors show as unknown ? What could have happened. Other parts of the Sunsynk are available. Thanks

@slipx Thanks truly appreciate it
