Send data from Hoymiles photovoltaic installation to Home Assistant through MQTT broker.
* GitHub:
* PyPI:
* Free software: MIT
The tool periodically communicates with Hoymiles DTU (Pro) through ModbusTCP and sends gathered data to MQTT broker.
Data to MQTT broker are sent with topics that can be recognized by Home Assistant.
In a result DTU and each micro-inverter can be represented in Home Assistant as separate device with a set of entities. Example:
DTU device represents overall data for the installation:
- pv_power - current power - sum from all micro-inverters
- today_production - today energy production - sum from all micro-inverters, for each micro-inverter last known
good value is cached to prevent disturbances in statistics when part of the installation is temporarily off
or off-line. This entity can be used in Home Assistant energy panel as a production from solar panels.
An example chart:
- total_production - lifetime energy production - sum from all micro-inverters
Each micro-inverter has the following entities:
- grid_voltage
- grid_frequency
- temperature
- operating_status
- alarm_code
- alarm_count
- link_status
Depending on the installation (number of micro-inverter), the tool may create many entities. One may limit the entities
or with the option _--mi-entities_.
A micro-inverter can support multiple ports (PV panels), their states are represented by:
- pv_voltage
- pv_current
- pv_power
- today_production
- total_production
Publishing of these entities can be controlled with _--port-entities_.
The following entities are sent only when the inverter's operating status is greater
than 0: grid_voltage, grid_frequency, temperature, pv_voltage, pv_current, pv_power.
Additionally, today_production and total_production are updated only when the inverter's
operating status is greater than 0 and the new value is greater than the previous one.
This is to prevent drops in measurements which shall be only increasing.
## Usage
### Prerequisites
- DTUs' _Ethernet_ port connected to a network
- DTU has assigned IP address by DHCP server. IP address shall be reserved for the device
- running MQTT broker, for example https://mosquitto.org/
- MQTT integration enabled in Home Assistant, https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/mqtt/

options:

-c CONFIG, --config CONFIG
Config file path (default: None)
--mqtt-broker MQTT_BROKER
Address of MQTT broker [env var: MQTT_BROKER] (default: None)

port 8883 [env var: MQTT_PORT] (default: 1883)
--mqtt-user MQTT_USER
User name for MQTT broker [env var: MQTT_USER] (default: None)
--mqtt-password MQTT_PASSWORD
Password to MQTT broker [env var: MQTT_PASSWORD] (default: None)
--mqtt-tls MQTT TLS connection [env var: MQTT_TLS] (default: False)
--mqtt-tls-insecure MQTT TLS insecure connection (only relevant when using with the --mqtt-tls
option). Do not use in production environments. [env var: MQTT_TLS_INSECURE]
(default: False)
--dtu-host DTU_HOST Address of Hoymiles DTU [env var: DTU_HOST] (default: None)
--dtu-port DTU_PORT DTU modbus port [env var: DTU_PORT] (default: 502)
--modbus-unit-id MODBUS_UNIT_ID
Modbus Unit ID [env var: MODBUS_UNIT_ID] (default: 1)
--query-period QUERY_PERIOD
How often (in seconds) DTU shall be queried. [env var: QUERY_PERIOD] (default:
60)
--microinverter-type {MI,HM}
Type od microinverters in the installation. Mixed types are not supported. [env
var: MICROINVERTER_TYPE] (default: MI)
--mi-entities MI_ENTITIES [MI_ENTITIES ...]
Microinverter entities that will be sent to MQTT. By default all entities are
presented. [env var: MI_ENTITIES] (default: ['grid_voltage', 'grid_frequency',
'temperature', 'operating_status', 'alarm_code', 'alarm_count', 'link_status'])
--port-entities PORT_ENTITIES [PORT_ENTITIES ...]
Microinverters' port entities (in fact PV panel entities) that will be sent to
MQTT. By default all entities are presented. [env var: PORT_ENTITIES] (default:
['pv_voltage', 'pv_current', 'pv_power', 'today_production',
'total_production'])
--expire-after EXPIRE_AFTER
Defines number of seconds after which DTU or microinverter entities expire, if
updates are not received (for example due to communication issues). After
expiry, entities become unavailable in Home Assistant.By default it is 0, which
means that entities never expire. When different than 0, the value shallbe
greater than the query period. This setting does not apply to entities that
represent a total amount such as daily energy production (they never expire).

--log-to-console Enable logging to console. [env var: LOG_TO_CONSOLE] (default: False)
Args that start with '--' can also be set in a config file (specified via -c). Config file syntax
allows: key=value, flag=true, stuff=[a,b,c] (for details, see syntax at https://goo.gl/R74nmi). In
general, command-line values override environment variables which override config file values which
override defaults.
### Docker
Build an image
docker build https://github.com/wasilukm/hoymiles-mqtt.git#v0.8.1 -t hoymiles_mqtt
Run (change IP addresses)
docker run -d -e MQTT_BROKER=192.168.1.101 -e DTU_HOST=192.168.1.100 hoymiles_mqtt
Please note, depending on the needs more options can be specified with _-e_. See above for all possible options.
For example to enable logging to console with DEBUG logging level:
docker run -d -e MQTT_BROKER=192.168.1.101 -e DTU_HOST=192.168.1.100 -e LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG -e LOG_TO_CONSOLE=true hoymiles_mqtt
> **_NOTE:_** DEBUG level is very verbose, so should be used only for troubleshooting.
## Troubleshooting
- Hoymiles DTUs are not the most stable devices. Therefore, from time to time the tool may not be able
to connect to DTU and will print the following exception:
>Modbus Error: [Invalid Message] No response received, expected at least 8 bytes (0 received)
The tool will continue its operation and try to communicate with DTU in the next period.
If the exception is constantly repeating and data is not refreshed in Home Assistant:
- power cycle DTU
- try to update DTU's firmware
- `libseccomp2` library may be missing on some operating systems, ensure the library is installed
