What inver-type to use in grott.ini

Open Aad3229 opened this issue 2 years ago • 7 comments

I am trying tot get grott working in docker. One of the things I need to set in the grott.ini is the inverter-type. I have a Growatt 3000MTL inverter, Which of the following inverter-type must I use: default, sph, spf, max, tl3

Originally I used 'default' but not all the entities were published to MQTT. I had a look on the side of my inverter for the model and its an SPH, changed the grot.ini to SPH inverter type and all the entities were published :-)

@Aad3229 - I suggest using this approach.

I think I may have the same problem as @Levanterman . I also have an SPH inverter. Currently I have 'default' set, however I wasn't sure if I was getting all of the entities or not. If I change it to SPH does it matter which case it's in? e.g. should I replace default with sph or SPH? How many entities should there be? I have an SPH3600 with two GBLI6532 batteries.

sph, all lower case, that's what I have/use and there's in the region of 70 entries for me.

@muppet3000 When I set everything up I used the @egguy grott-home-assistant-add-on (Edge version) in combination with your home assistant-grott. My Grott device has 66 entities for my SPH. Consisting of 45 Sensors and 21 Diagnostic.

Awesome, that sounds about right. If there's anything missing or has behaviour you wouldn't expect just let me know.

Muppet3000 - Thanks for you hard work, I finally have this working. I have a Min6000TL-XE, Grott works as long as I have my grott.ini set to type "TL3". It doesn't seem to work with TL6. But, it went dark and the inverter went to sleep so I can't do anymore until tomorrow!
