Inverter status alarms

[kyuzumaki]

Hi first off thanks for this integration it's brilliant! My idea is really just to read status messages and alarms. The only thing compared to the ginlong Solis app im missing are the inverter messages, e.g. no grid, over voltage grid ( i get this occasionally due to my location).

Would it be possible to read this info out? I'm using a Solis 5G inverter, i believe the registers are just on off for each state alarm. This document is probably not new to anyone but at least for my inverter the registers seem to be listed for the alarms.

It would be really useful to be able see these messages with a timestamp.

@kyuzumaki good shout, but the document is now outdated

I see this as more relevant https://213.136.68.177/assets/uploads/files/1619515984065-_without-control-hybrid-en-2020.9.15_rs485_modbus-esinv-33000id-hybrid-inverter.pdf

Which values are you after in particular?
33095 - Appendix 2
33116, 33121 & 33132 are reliant on #200 (comment)

33095 looks straight forward enough to implement.

I have just released 2023.03.2b11 and included a few "Inverter Status" results for 33095
@kyuzumaki can you let me know if they display correctly for Grid Loss and Grid Overvoltage.

@wills106 missing description in your b11 release for https://github.com/wills106/homeassistant-solax-modbus/releases/tag/2023.03.2b7 and b7 seems to have the wrong headings too. Sorry just spotted that

[wills106]

I know b7 was wrong (Just corrected the title). But b11 shows up ok to me?

Edit: I see what you mean now, it's missing the description of the change in b7
Edit 2: Just added the changes into b11 readme

[kyuzumaki]

Ok B11 didnt show the sensor but B14 has it and it is working as expected. I cut the grid to my inverter and it detected it instantly. I'm not sure about grid over voltage and battery overvoltage I will have to monitor for those as I cant simulate them

[kyuzumaki]

Thanks for adding that. I thought it would be useful to have all the potential error codes in there in case of a fault. I've copied them all out from the document into my local version and it seems to work fine.

Have added a pull request for the extra status codes.

@kyuzumaki which document you used?

[kyuzumaki]

The one you posted in this thread

[alienatedsec]

@kyuzumaki thanks. I have not checked your PR yet but that would be also my reference document for input registers.

Working well now. I've combined this with a notification Automation and its essentially replicated the Solis app functionality. This adds an entry to the home assistant notifications section and sends one to a mobile device.

It's set up for iOS devices so might need slight alteration for android.

The only thing I noticed is the inverter status entity dosent show a logbook. Not sure why that is. The HA docs dont go into much detail on that popup.

@kyuzumaki I got a similar but integrated with Telegram bot - check out here https://github.com/alienatedsec/solis-ha-modbus-cloud/wiki/Sample-Automations

but I like your push notification, which I may include too.
