Hello,

I still try to use a shelly Outdoor PlugS Gen3 as Power Meter for an micro inverter.

On the shelly Webserver I see for example “-300 W” = ok

shelly settings,

- (Input/Output settings - Action on power on for Output (0) - Turn ON)
- Wifi: connect to Cerbo AP
- Outbound websocket: “ws://172.24.24.1:8000” or “ws://venus.local:8000”
- … for later use, (with Network, NTP connection):  
(- Schedules - At sunset - Output (0) - off) to save PV inverter night standby consumption  
(- Schedules - At sunrise - Output (0) - on) to switch on PV inverter at daytime

Cerbo GX  
Solar yield Box is now shown on the Cerbo Brief and Overview 🙂 ,  
but no values “-- W” ☹

- Settings - Devices - Shelly energy meter - “AC totals: 0W” = ☹
- Settings - Devices - Shelly energy meter - Role: PV inverter
- Settings - Devices - Shelly energy meter - Position: AC Input 1  
(further more I still don´t find a option to set the shelly PM position to L1; L2 or L3)

Hardware setting:

- grid supplyer 3-phase power meter
- Victron VM-3P75CT power meter (fw. 1.8)
- Cerbo GX (fw. 3.55 and 3.60~86)
- 3-phase home grid, RCDs, fuses, power sockets, …
- micro PV inverter (connect to L3)
- shelly Outdoor PlugS Gen3 (fw 1.2.3 and 1.7.0-beta1) and shelly 1PM Gen4 (fw 1.6.2)

I still try classic UI and new UI.  
Solar yield “-- W”

How can I get the shelly PV measurement figures on the cerbo display?
