LVX6048 (and the like) split phase information

[smrruby]

Has anyone been able to read the L1 vs L2 (Amps, Watts) information separately on these split-phase inverters. I'm having luck with most of the protocol 18 (P18) functions but the "GS" function returns "ac_output_apparent_power" that doesn't look correct as combined or only L1 or L2. Unfortunately I don't see a means to see L1/L2 separately in the P18 docs but since they are both available separately on the unit's display I figure it has to be in the data somewhere.

You need "communication protocol"
Infini-Solar WP LV6K_3P 10-15K and TWIN Series protocol 20220921.xlsx

PR accepted, if you can write this extra features ;)
else @jblance need to answer how/when this can be done.

[smrruby]

I might be able to take a stab at it. Is this an extension of protocol 18? Or does it need to be added as a new protocol?

Post result of:
sudo mpp-solar -p /dev/hidraw0 -P PI18 -o raw -c QID#QPI#QMN#QGMN#QVFW#QVFW2#QVFW3
/correct /dev/hidraw0 if your port is different /

[smrruby]

sure!

The attached is for a protocol that identifies as PI17, this inverter IDs as PI18
though some PI30 commands work eg QMN responded with VMIII-6000

[jblance]

this is what the `--getDeviceId` command is for (though it was only added in version 0.15.30 or later

the inverter is at a remote site with a slow cell modem but I did a pip -upgrade and that got me to 15.28 which claims to have a --getDeviceId option

root@raspberrypi:/home/stever # mpp-solar --version

[jblance]

yeah, still needs a protocol unfortunately (one day I'll make it generic)

[jblance]

try `mpp-solar -p /dev/hidraw0 -P PI18 -o raw -c PI#VFW`

wierd as the PI command worked by itself

Oh sorry, PI only works under PI18SV, not just PI18
