cannot set payload to my grid-Value from Solax-Inverter

[nothu71]

Hello,
I've just tried the code for the automations.yaml which is given as an example, but had no success.
My entity from the solax-inverter: sensor.solax_srmhc6vjq3_feed_in_power.
I would have to invert the value (because the inverter gives negative values for grid-imports) and feed it to the payload.
For test-purpose I tried out
payload: '{"pGrid": 3000.0}'
It worked, the charger tried to reduce his power-consumption to 3000 W (however he returned to 10kW because the pGrid-value of my testing-payload did not react as a result of his change.

The suggested line in the doku is
payload: {{'{"pGrid": '}}{{states('sensor.meter_active_power_raw')}}{{', "pPv":'}}{{states('sensor.total_dc_power')}}{{', "pAkku":0}'}}

when I replace the entity and shorten the payload (all we need is pGrid) this would lead to
payload: {{'{"pGrid": '}}{{states('sensor.solax_srmhc6vjq3_feed_in_power')}}

However this gives an Error bad indentation of a mapping entry (24:32)

In the template section of homeAssistant I tried out
{{'{"pGrid": '}}{{states('sensor.solax_srmhc6vjq3_feed_in_power') | multiply(-1)}}{{'}'}}
This gives a perfect json-format: {"pGrid": 987.0}

Unluckily it doesn't work when I copy this line to my payload-line in automations.yaml

Can someone help me??

Hi, use this one that is working for me, someone from a FB group helped me with it as I am no programmer (change your charger serial number and sensors names, I have a Huwaei invertor) https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fpastebin.com%2FvRmsjJ8X%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR3b9Y-h2nPbWKaPiiz-tnHVsrSCIhJ5QVISRWm5B-LL0oDbZZCNGGvc_tE_aem_AU8eydYWA3iafrFpyVfAO8A_g1n3oMBbi-qhXy2-egLWNg_Df1pGmD1Oqt8YcDzTIzpNM3wUWwCTllYAJK8_Bg5x&h=AT0vEBHsBDD2oOgKH9k1GzY82Q2PdYXiLJzQR90ne_qLXAx0x7taJbslTEbmfW1J3-kXcOmb03hJSqVDeY4w0SZg3Z4HP_oepv173P2FopteybbKOXyAO7Cvuu3TNTD4nQ&__tn__=R]-R&c[0]=AT3bDm6I9VSz5TyVSsRW8790Z-QbWVgGuldPMDe2TdG0Zzl5t0wjtSAai1YCo6mWinP25SR4BWavQyn-vNthY9QPyv-_1rIRdU52pWkBZcFmyKJoQYEApys9TrLGBcHofd0bRsPn_yNSDfsS2H77TXA15iIfmtx5kesf7qcGsOIdDYcpIdFhdDg8nQ

Hi, did you solved the problem? Because i need the same i have a invertor from Solaredge

[mihaimihai18]

Yes, as I said now it works ok with my Huawei inverter and go-eCharger. Sent from Mail<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for Windows

Where do I have to implement this? Unfortunately, I don't have much experience with Home Assistant :)

And you mean the code:
alias: go-e Surplus Charging
description: "Simple automation to update values needed for using solar surplus with go-e Chargers"
trigger:

• platform: time_pattern
  seconds: /5
  condition: []
  action:
• service: mqtt.publish
  data:
  qos: "0"

  Change to your charger ID here

  topic: go-eCharger/106455/ids/set

  Please provide your own entities here, as described above

  payload: |
  {{'{"pGrid": '}}{{states('sensor.power_meter_active_power')}}{{', "pPv":'}}{{states('sensor.inverter_input_power')}}{{', "pAkku":0}'}}
  retain: false

[mihaimihai18]

The below code should be /homeassistant/automations.yaml file, make sure the indentation is correct: alias: ' go-e Surplus Charging' description: Simple automation to update values needed for using solar surplus with go-e Chargers trigger: - platform: time_pattern seconds: /10 condition: - condition: sun before: sunset after: sunrise - type: is_on condition: device device_id: dbf7e9dc92384b89ff2195a917b0f4bf entity_id: 47e37f0df9d68f4e94a1c776191af880 domain: binary_sensor action: - service: mqtt.publish data: qos: '0' topic: go-eCharger/xxxxxx/ids/set payload: '{{''{"pGrid": ''}}{{states(''sensor.power_meter_active_power'') | multiply(-1)}}{{'', "pPv":''}}{{states(''sensor.inverter_input_power'')}}{{'', "pAkku":0}''}} retain: false I added „|multiply(-1)}} “ to change the energy available from solar from -xx to +xx (depends on how the inverter consider the injected energy sign). Also I added two conditions, the sun is up and the car is connected so it will works only if the above conditions are both met.
