How to map the sensors to energy dashboard about sungrow-shx-inverter-modbus-home-assistant

[mkaiser]

totally missed this Issue... :/

do you mean the HA integrated Energy Dashboard?

for this you need to set the highlighted values in "Configuration" --> "Energy"

[johschmitz]

Okay but how to display the current PV generation in W instead of the total?

[mkaiser]

It seems that in Home Assistant the "Energy" dashboard is only meant to be showing the Energy (including the energy flow) in kWh.

For me, I summarized the momentary / current electrical power (in W) in an extra dashboard, to know if I should start heating / washing / whatever :)

[johschmitz]

Then could you explain how to do that?

[mkaiser]

Use the dashboard config file I provided in #2

When this works, I will add that to the README

[johschmitz]

So which sensor in there is the current PV production in W? I couldn't find a good documentation.

[mkaiser]

look for "total_dc_power"

[johschmitz]

Could you add the screenshot of the energy configuration with the different sensors also to the readme? For us everything works now. I hope with the extra information about the dashboard setup and the energy setup it will also become easier for other people.

Updated the readme. Thanks!
