Hi bertreb,
can you tell me more about the configuration of your pimatic-sma plugin, please? My photovoltaic system consists of a SMA Energy Meter, a SunnyBoy SB-5000TL inverter and a SunnyIsland for energy storage. Which device IP address should I use for the device config? Using the IP of SB-5000TL gives me no values all the time. Enabling Debug gives me no messages.

Kostal Inverter data

The plugin is loaded and active.
Device looks like this:

I found an issues with release 0.0.11, seems the package wasn’t updated.
I released version 0.0.12, that should solve that.You have a battery installed. I could add the battery data? (if its available).
Can you see battery data on the startscreen when you go to the inverter ip? -
I only came to test it today. Release 0.0.12 behaves exactly like 0.0.11, no values …
What do you mean with “startscreen when I go to the inverter ip?” -
IPs are in the same subnet.
I am beginning to think where the problem lies. SMA inverters of the old generation, like my SunnyBoy TL5000, do not allow direct access to a web interface. They don’t have one at all. Only the newer generation of devices like Sunny Boy 3.0 … 5.0 have an integrated web server for configuration.
The devices of the old generation can only be addressed via a specific protocol and read out via third-party applications such as SBFspot. -
That would be great!
This is a good place to start : https://www.sma.de/produkte/sma-developer.html Look for SEMP protocol

No, I don’t have Modbus on my inverter. The Inverter (and the battery inverter too) has an ethernet interface, called Speedwire/Webconnect module (SMA SWDM-10).

No, I don’t think so. I configured all the PV systems (inverter, battery inverter, energy meter, home manager) with static IPs of the same subnet (192.168.1.x) . SBFspot works with the static IP of the inverter. I will stick to this solution.
