Grafana dashboard - Ideas

Hi.
I have finally got my VICTRON-Grafana dashboard running :-)

The devices in use are:
Venus GX
Quattro 48/8000
2x SmartSolar Charger MPPT 150/85 &
BYD Battery & BMS

I am using a Raspberry Pi4 running DietPi, InfluxDB, Telegraph plugin and Grafana Server.

I also installed the following plugins on grafana:

SUN and Moon (data source)

and

Carpet Plot


It is still work in progress but I am quite happy with outcome so far.
I have created a "Overview" dashboard where basically everything should be "green" - when OK.
So a quick look should tell me that everything is OK.

or Battery

2021-07-27-12-06-47-victron-vrm-grafana-mozilla-fi.pngor charger - current data & history

I borrowed some ideas from other dashboards and added some of my ideas.

This is just to give you some additional ideas for the layouts

Cheers

Hoping to do something like this at some point. Too busy converting a van to a motorhome at the mo.

Would you like to share the json for the Grafana dashboards?
They look very nice.

@juergen pflug would be really cool if you could share the json files for your dashboards!

I transformed the awesome dashboard from juergen pflug to match the data format of default victron influx logging:

VictronDashboad.json.zip

Hi and thanks a lot for providing the victrondashboard. I checked it on my side and most of them is working. But I've one special question which I'm not sure if you can reproduce it.

I would like to have the history yield of the solarcharger and it seems that these data are not in the influxdb. I see a lot of entries but not the history. I was searching the last days for a solution to reproduce it and it seems that these data are not requested from the docker victron-server.

In the initial and in your dashboard there is 1699191249713.png

and if I check it I can't get the data

1699191284135.png


When I check the measurements in influx, I can't see any measurement with the daily history:

1699191374190.png


Could you please check it for me as well? I guess, this was removed in the docker image?!
