Re: H3 Inverter & ModBus help

In short after chasing FoxEss support for a definitive answer to the F5000 failure to supply data I eventually got an answer that the F5000 has no capability to export data i.e. the manual and several versions of tech specs that can be found on the web are incorrect. I have finally resorted to repla...

Re: H3 Inverter & ModBus help

Happy to help once I get the necessary connector in place. I don't have a great deal of knowledge in this area but can run modpoll commands and supply the responses. I have two iterations of the FoxEss-Cloud integration running, one for each inverter so I imagine they must be generating similar outp...

Re: H3 Inverter & ModBus help

Data flowing!! tracked the last problem down to a broken core in the cat 5 pair I was using between the H1 and 610s. Rewired with new cat 5 and the integration configured as described. Next step is to set up a dashboard and understand the various values. Once I get the communications connector for t...

Re: H3 Inverter & ModBus help

The pre-release version has taken me a step closer. Now encountering a time out error. I suspect this may be because the inverter settings need to be changed so that comms is set to RS485 instead of Lan. I will try that tomorrow. I haven't changed the work mode setting to either TCP or UDP as HA see...

Re: H3 Inverter & ModBus help

I have acquired two USR-TCP232-410S and set the local lan address as static for both following the wiring guide. I have connected one to the H1-5.0-E inverter. The work led is blinking as expected. I have connected to the 410s and can see an RX count on the status page but not any Tx. I have install...

Re: H3 Inverter & ModBus help

Thanks for the quick reply, I will follow your advice and put the 410s close to the inverters. This will be a two stage project since the installers omitted to leave the coms plug for the F5000 so have to source the correct plug which will no doubt take a bit of time :( Each inverter has 10 x 400wat...
