Hello,
Do anybody know the meanings of two values:
1. Load Consumption in the mobile app -> it is described as value refering to house load consumption
2.sum of LoadYield in the statistics plot from
https://www.foxesscloud.com/bus/dataView
Why are they different? For example 'Load Consumption' = 12,5 kWh and 'sum of LoadYield ' = 10,1 kWh

Load Consumption is an absolute value reported by the inverter for today.
LoadYield is derived from all of the 5 minute samples throughout the day, they each suffer rounding errors and we believe don’t handle samples around midnight very well - so when you add them together you will have a different result, sometimes if you increase the period to ‘Months’ you get a more accurate value as that includes the missing midnight samples.

thx for explanation.
What is the accurate data source for mobile app? API:

If you are using the OpenAPI you have to do a production report (see here
https://www.foxesscloud.com/public/i18n ... 03e203ca3e) and the variable is 'loads'
i.e. the request body example would look like this {"sn":"60BH60xxxxxxx9","year":2025,"month":10,"dimension":"month","variables":["feedin","generation","gridConsumption","chargeEnergyToTal","dischargeEnergyToTal","loads","PVEnergyTotal"]}

'loads' from api -> gives different value than in mobile app (Load Consumption)
I'm wondering how mobile app calculate that value.
I guess it's question to people who made mobile app.

Fox have access to the ‘load today’ register through their own api, the OpenAPI had never exposed that one so you will always see small differences - if you switch to modbus you will get all the inverter ‘total’ registers exposed
