January 21, 20215 yr Hello Community, The RIOT Cloudlink is causing a stir in the market currently and we were hoping to announce in the next month more about it, however we have been inundated with questions and we have been asked to release a sneak preview for discussion. WHAT IS RIOT RIOT Systems with Hubble Lithium have developed a A.I. comms device that enables the Hubble range of Lithium batteries to have full CAN Bus and Cloud monitoring capability. The RIOT device is an optional addon to the Hubble X and AM range of products and will allow your Hubble to integrate with almost any CAN bus Inverter including SMA, Victron, Growatt, GoodWE, Sunsynk, Deye inverters on the market. This is made possible by the RIOT CAN bus protocol, which encapsulates 5 CAN bus protocols. Current Development The RIOT is in Beta testing to add Axpert and Phocos inverters for full communication and cloud monitoring for the Huble range of Lithium batteries. What this means is that there will be 2 way communication and full integration released in the next few weeks with a firmware update OTA for your RIOT device that will enable full Axpert integration with the AM Range, and X-200 batteries. (The X-100 is not supported for 2-way Axpert integration. Only monitoring). Whats next? We will release the Phocos Any-Grid firmware update OTA in the next 7 days for full 2-way integration between the AM-2 and the Phocos inverters. Our partnership with Phocos to integrate the Hubble range of batteries have been a priority since 2020. 14 days after that we should be ready to release Axpert MKSII, VMIII, KING & MAX Protocol firmware updates to enable full 2-way communication. Where can I get a RIOT? The Powerforum store will be a distributor of the product. We are looking forward to their review of the product. More information will be made available in due course. You can read more here or see a demo of the Cloudlink Dashboard in Action on the following link: https://www.hubblelithium.co.za/riot.html
January 22, 20215 yr Author Quick heads up to the community. We have completed full Phocos Axpert integration with the RIOT & Hubble Lithium batteries.
January 22, 20215 yr This is fantastic! When can be expect full compatibility with the Axpert range? @HubbleLithium Sincerely Jason

We expect to release the OTA firmware update to the stable branch in 2 weeks. Note that only the Hubble CANbus batteries is supported for Axpert integration at this point in time.

After 8 years of running this forum I have finally saved up to get a battery backup for now. It will be the sunsynk and the Hubble. I am going to definitely add the riot! In a few months when funds are available I will add the solar. Great work on a genius device! Sincerely Jason
February 9, 20215 yr I have my RIOT but can not log in or do anything. Still waiting for the UI to work
February 9, 20215 yr That's not great news, I have ordered a RIOT, quite keen to see it work with the Hubble-AM2 and Sunsynk

The AM-2 has built in CANbus. You can use the RIOT for cloud monitoring in your case.

February 9, 20215 yr Hubbles helped me out today.RIOT is working 100% now. Very nice to see all the details.
March 2, 20215 yr Author Hi All, Firmware update and changelogs have been added to the site for those that would like to see what new updates are added per over the air firmware releases. https://www.riotsystems.cloud/firmware-updates.html
March 17, 20215 yr My RiOT did a update and now its not showing info when I login. Any tips that i can try.. and when will the update for comunication between my axpert(kodak) vmiii be out. Thank you
March 17, 20215 yr Author Hi Jacques, You can connect the RIOT directly into your VMIII now and it will work. Do you have the RS232 to RJ45 connector? If not we can supply. You will also have 2 dashboards soon. One specifically for Inverter & Battery combined. Once you have it pluged directly into your inverter please let us know and we can check/update the graph. If you can please send the support request to [email protected] and the helpdesk technicians can resolve the issues. Edited March 21, 20215 yr by HubbleLithium typo
March 18, 20215 yr Hey. Thanx for the reply. I dont have one. Will have to order one from you. I did email support now. Thank you
March 25, 20215 yr Hey. Still not able to get Riot and inverter cobected. Have conected the cable between hubble and Riot an set Riot to Inverter. But not sure witch cable to use between inverter and Riot.
April 21, 20215 yr I have a Kodak VM3 and 2x Hubble X-100 with the riot. How should the 4 be connected to be most efficient? The Riot cloud link does not give me any info
April 21, 20215 yr Author Hi Nvw1104, You can download the latest manual here: https://www.hubblelithium.co.za/uploads/1/3/5/0/135079623/riot_cloudlink_installation_manual_2_1_8.pdf There is only 1 Serial port on the RIOT, so you can either plug into the X-100 Serial or the Inverter serial. I would suggest connect the inverter serial port and it will monitor the inverters and battery SOC through the inverter. The Cloudlink cannot do 2-way comms with the X-100. All the other models like the AM series can do 2-way comms through CANbus from the battery to the serial of the inverter. For more assistance please email [email protected] and they will be able to assit with setup on the portal and the hardware.
June 23, 20215 yr Hi @HubbleLithium, Do you have any subscription fees with the cloud platform? Or is this part of the device cost?
