Solis Hybrid "Allow Grid Charging"

[mart-mac]

I'm trying to find if this is any option already, and if not, weather it can be added

Within the "self use" menu there is another option to enable / disable grid charging, Can this be changed with this integration currently?

Thanks

@mart-mac check here #405 (comment)

[mart-mac]

#405 is just about turning the charge window on and off, I'm happy and got automations working with that

I'm currently trying to limit my charge amps during sunny days so my battery doesn't fill up so quickly by setting a charge window with limited amps. If my battery get full early in the day I'm limited to my 6kw out put, keep the battery slow charging I'm hitting 7-8kw when the suns out. The problem I've had some times is when big clouds comes over and I've set it to charge at 2kw, if my PV drop below 2kw it draws from the grid to charge. If I disable grid charge (on the inverter) I don't have this problem, but as soon as you activate storage mode "Times charge/discharge" on the integration it switched grid charge back on, with no way to turn back off

Changing to "Auto Mode" is switching the grid charge off.

Grid charging is enabled by bit 5 of the energy storage control switch register. By default, the integration sets the grid charging to on. I was able to set grid charging to off while in timed charge/discharge mode by writing 3 instead of 35 to the register. This retains the functionality of the timed charge/discharge mode but limits the battery charging to solar only.

I'm just adding these in:

Is this different to

Timed charge/discharge with no grid charge : 32

Might be easier if you just paste in your 33132 and 43110 registers then I can add them into the Integration

This is what I have:

SolisModbusSensorEntityDescription(
        name = "Energy Storage Control Switch",
        key = "energy_storage_control_switch",
        register = 33132,
        register_type = REG_INPUT,
        scale = {  
                1: "Auto Mode - No Grid Charge",
                3: "Timed Charge/Discharge - No Grid Charge",
                33: "Auto Mode",
                35: "Timed Charge/Discharge", 
                37: "Off-Grid Mode", 
                41: "Battery Awaken", 
                43: "Battery Awaken + Timed Charge/Discharge",
                51: "Backup/Reserve",
                },
        allowedtypes = HYBRID,
    ),

Is that correct?

Edit or should '3' be 32: "Timed Charge/Discharge - No Grid Charge",

[Cabocab]

This is correct. Apologies for the confusion. That was a typo in my earlier reply. Should be '3' instead of '32'. Have edited my earlier reply.

        scale = {  
                1: "Auto Mode - No Grid Charge",
                3: "Timed Charge/Discharge - No Grid Charge",
                33: "Auto Mode",
                35: "Timed Charge/Discharge", 
                37: "Off-Grid Mode", 
                41: "Battery Awaken", 
                43: "Battery Awaken + Timed Charge/Discharge",
                51: "Backup/Reserve",
                },
        allowedtypes = HYBRID,
    ),

I thought that was correct and what I released in the latest Beta yesterday.

[mart-mac]

I've just update to your latest Beta, and this is exactly what I wanted.

Thanks all
