I had my panels and Fox Ess H1 3.7 and HV25 batteries installed a couple of days ago. I was aware that the app wasn't very user friendly so I installed Home Assistant on a RPi3. I installed the HACS and then the FoxEss Cloud integration and that seems to be connected to the inverter via the Foxcloud.
The problem I have on the Energy Dashboard is the Energy Distribution display (4 circles showing energy flow) is not correct. I believe that it is using the wrong sensor data for solar. It's using total daily generation not 'live' solar generation. When I try to change it in the Energy Dashboard the correct sensor isn't available.
Is there any way to add the correct sensor or would it be best to get an RS485 to USB and use the FoxEss Modbus code?
Thanks for any help you can give.
Energy dashboard - energy distribution wrong?

There is a new release of the Foxess cloud integration which it says addresses mismatches in energy generation.
I prefer to use this mod to add additional sensors that sum the strings pv1 and 2, you then add the pv1/2_sum sensors in the solar generation section of the energy dashboard replacing the existing foxess_solar feed.
