This component simplifies the integration of a APsystems inverter:
- creates up to individuals sensors for easy display or use in automations
- collects power (W) and energy (KWH) every 5 minutes. There is also a sensor for daily total and max power.
- extract data from apsystemsema.com web portal instead of hack the ECU connection
- supports any kind of ASsystems inverter or ECU
- if enabled, pauses from sunset to sunrise (basically when there no sun)
- have a cache system to avoid individual sensors request the same data to apsystemsema.com. It is a great feature for I/O (HTTP) performance.
- there is a date sensor to identify exactly date/time refers each sensor data
Use your apsystemsema.com user to configure the configuration.yaml:
sensor:
- platform: apsystems
authId: apsystemsem_authid
systemId: apsystemsema_system_id
ecuId: apsystemsema_ecu_id
sunset: off
1 - set "Allow visitors to access to this system" and get the authid from here
2 - your systemId is found at apsystemsema.com. See the page source code and at the Settings Menu there is a code like that:
<span>Settings</span>
<ul>
<li onclick="managementClickCustomer('YOUR SYSTEM ID')"><a>Settings</a></li>
<li onclick="intoFaq(10)"><a>Help</a></li>
</ul>
Get the system id inside the managementClickCustomer()
.
3 - There is an ecu id data at https://apsystemsema.com/ema/security/optmainmenu/intoLargeReport.action
4 - sunset attribute could be on or off
To get debug info in the logs do
logger:
default: info
logs:
custom_components.apsystems: debug
and then grep the log for output
grep apsystem home-assistant.log
