Read out MPPT or Ve Smart Network State/Mode for Grafana

I wonder how to read out the VE.SmartNetwork state for the devices like the MPPT, Shunt and so on... for Grafana.

All i got is : No Data when querying: 
SELECT last("value") FROM "solarcharger/NetworkMode" WHERE ("instanceNumber" = '289') AND $timeFilter GROUP BY time($__interval) fill(previous)

Doesnt matter if i use an explicit instance or based on the whole name. Or even when using the "solarcharger/NetworkState"

Thanks for your help :)

I'm not familiar with how you would go about this via Smart Network.

I imagine you've already looked into but I'll say just in case. An easy work around if you have one could be adding a raspi running venus os.

Atm they're painfully pricey but would make solution much easier getting the data via MQTT/modbus and forwarding to grafana or using GitHub - victronenergy/venus-docker-grafana

Oh Thanks,


i am running Venus OS actually. but there are no entries or datapoints in VE.SmartNetwork.. even though "State" and "Mode" exist..

i just wonder if its generally not filled with data due to a bug or lack or whatever -.-

Thanks anyway
regards

What is the exact data you're looking for. I'll check my system see if I can see anything.


Do you have a preference of how you get the data in venus os? I can check MQTT, modbus or Node-red let me know which data you're after and if you've got a preference of which communication type in Venus os and I'll see if I've got anything.
