Hi, thanks for the suggestion. Looking at https://github.com/Louisvdw/dbus-serialbattery/blob/bd20bd57052023f6a88ac4bb7e5ea0bf09bb9464/etc/dbus-serialbattery/dbushelper.py, it should be possible to replicate the same dbus paths. I don't have access to a suitable battery system to test against,...

This looks like a good start. So I assume you have added these battery fields to the ~~settings.yml~~ services.yml file? If so can you provide a copy for me to...

Each section in the services.yml file is for a different service, so you want to start a new section something like this: ``` # https://github.com/victronenergy/venus/wiki/dbus#battery battery: ProductId: default: 45069 #...

It looks like you are going in the right direction. My advice would be to create a minimal set of parameters first then add to it if the simpler set...

I think you misunderstand the registration protocol. The "services" object is a collection of chosen names and service names. The service name is the name in the services.yml file. So...

I just realised, I incorrectly called the configuration file _settings.yml_ instead of **services.yml**, I have corrected my replies in case anyone reading this later is confused.

You have to install the driver and make sure it is running. It is the driver that receives the status messages and registers your device on the dbus for you. ...

No need to re-install or restart. Check the log file and the troubleshooting instructions in the readme. ``` more /var/log/dbus-mqtt-devices/current ```

~~No.~~ edit: that was incorrect assumption by me, **YES** you do need to run setup again.

At least, I don't ~~think so~~ know, until I (or someone else) test it 😀
