About

Solis Modbus is a HACS integration that connects Solis inverters to Home Assistant over a local Modbus link. It combines several register queries into single calls, which reduces overhead compared with the native Modbus integration. Connection is made either over TCP through a data logging stick or WiFi dongle, or over serial RS485. It provides number, select, sensor, switch and time entities, with separate fast, normal and slow poll intervals and a poll profile setting. Actions cover forcing battery charge or discharge, remote dispatch, programming scheduled dispatch periods, and reading or writing registers. A repair notice appears when the Solis datalogger is unreachable, and setup is done in the UI.

Actions

  • Write holding registerWrites a value to a holding registerFields: Address, Value, Inverter
  • Change the time of a entitySets the time of the entity to the provided oneFields: Entity ID, Desired Time
  • Read registerReads one or more registers and returns the raw values (register discovery / debugging)
  • Force battery chargeForce the battery to charge (hybrid inverters); reverts after the timeout
  • Force battery dischargeForce the battery to discharge (hybrid inverters); reverts after the timeout
  • Stop force charge/dischargeCancel an active force charge or discharge
  • Remote dispatchReal-time inverter dispatch: goal-seeking grid/battery control with inverter-side failsafe
  • Stop remote dispatchRelease dispatch — the inverter returns to normal operation immediately
  • Program dispatch schedule periodWrite one of six inverter-resident scheduled dispatch periods (survives HA restarts)
