I’m trying to get the my pv-inverters visible in my Cerbo gx.
My inverters are connected to my domotica systen via modbus-tcp, I’d like to use the modbus-meter I have installed.
So far I’m reading the L1-L3 power outputs.
But I’m having trouble connecting it to the virtual device node in node red, since there is no input to connect to.
Am I doing anything wrong?
That node only creates the Virtual device, you do not connect to it.
You then need either the PV Inverter Control Node, or a Custom Control Node that you then add in and feed the data to that, choosing the device as your Virtual PV Inverter.
See my example virtual GPS called “Dummy GPS”, tje node to create it and the Custom Control nodes to set the latitude and longitude. This also shows the control nodes you need in the list on the left.
Do you know if there is a virtual device I can use as a external meter for loads?
I have seperate kWh-meters installed for the house, the garage and a technical building, which are now on AC-in and I’d like to be visible in the overview.
Is that possible?
There is a virtual grid meter in V3.70 beta series, I do not know if this is in V3.6x. You may be able to use that, I have not used it myself so.do not know if it can be used as a load or how to tell it is a load, perhaps on the Device setup on the GX device.
