Hello Sebastian,
have you had some time to look at this?
thanks
best regards,

no news on this one?

Hi Miguel! I hope you are fine. I've extended the protocol test by some commands of your split phase converter:

261dc2c

Could you flash the YAML and provide some logs? Thanks in advance!

You can just flash the YAML but you have to change the tx_pin/rx_pin probably. If it doesn't work out of the box please provide your current/working YAML. I will provide a drop-in replacement just for testing.

from esphome-pipsolar.

logs:
logs_mppsolar-inverter-0_logs.txt

current (test) yaml:
esp8266-test-protocols.txt

my (original) yaml:
mppsolar-inverter-0.txt

from esphome-pipsolar.

It looks like I messed up the timing of the procotol test YAML. I've pushed an update. Could you try to most recent version of the protocol test? The one with a 1 second delay between the commands instead of 2 seconds:

most recent version logs:
logs_mppsolar-inverter-0_logs (1).txt
same failure. :(

from esphome-pipsolar.

uart and logger are configured to the same GPIOs. Please set the baud_rate of the logger to 0 if you use GPIO1/GPIO3.

from esphome-pipsolar.

cant set to 0
please the options and advice

from esphome-pipsolar.

logger:
  baud_rate: 0
  level: DEBUG

from esphome-pipsolar.

logs_mppsolar-inverter-0_logs.txt

we got something now

from esphome-pipsolar.

Perfect! Please flash your production setup again. You have retrieved all required informations the extend the pipsolar component.

great!! do we need to create new sensors to read both phases?
logs from my production setup with your changes:
logs_mppsolar-inverter-0_logs (1).txt

from esphome-pipsolar.

Your production YAML has the same GPIO conflict. Please disable the serial logging here too and provide another log:

logger:
  baud_rate: 0
  level: DEBUG

from esphome-pipsolar.

ok see attached:
logs_mppsolar-inverter-0_logs.txt

from esphome-pipsolar.

This looks much better.

from esphome-pipsolar.

what will be the next step to add the sensors for both phases?
I was looking at the cpp and py files and looks very complicated.( to me )
or theres another way where not that much code editing will be needed?

Some (de)coding is required. ;-)

hello syssi, while waiting (if this ever happends lol).
can you explain me how the output component works with an example?
I will like to create a switch or a selector for charger_source_priority

output:
  - platform: pipsolar
    pipsolar_id: inverter0
    battery_recharge_voltage:
      id: inverter0_charger_source_priority

on_...:
  then:
  - output

but honestly dont know how to do it,
can you help me with the yaml code
thanks

i dont u desrstand much but I know there are some QPIGS2 commands in your code for pv2.
can you tell me what files deal with the sensors so I can try to make a version witb both QPIGS and QPIGS2 sensors for my split phase unit.
i know pipsolar.cpp is one of them. if i know what other files are involve i can try to modify them to add the sensors from the other phase of.my inverter (QPIGS2 sensors).
ill be using pip8048 as my base branch. all i need is a list of the files that needed to be modify and i start my trial and error from there
