Communication issue SUNSYNK-12K-SG04LP3 using Waveshare RS485 to PoE (B)

[jeybee74]

Hi, Thanks for a great integration 💯 !
I installed it yesterday and made it work using the same settings as shown in the Getting Started - Adapers & Wiring section for the SS 25k HV inverter.

When I moved the Waveshare POE device over to a permanent position I noticed that the data was not read every 5sek as I was expecting and now I feel I have tried everything. I now think that I probably had communication issues all along.

I have tried both serial-tcp with waveshare protocol set to none, and tcp with waveshare device protocol set to Modbus TCP-RTU. With excact same results.
I have also tried 3 cables for RS485 and 2 LAN cables + tried without PoE and local power to waveshare device.

Does anyone else had same issues with this Waveshare RS485 to PoE (B) device, and found a fix?

RS485 is connected using the red cat6 cable

You have to use the same port as the battery. Not the ModeBUS port. You will need a splitter, see the guide on how to make one. Note that this is NOT just an ethernet splitter.

More infos about this splitter can be found here: https://solar-assistant.io/help/deye/2_in_1_bms_port

Thank you for the suggestion :) to connect to the BMS port,

However, I get the same issue, with the connection to the BMS port, pinout is the same, pin 1-3 for RS485.

Looks like the splitter only needs to be used on smaller inverters that is missing this ModeBUS port?

[proggaras]

Not 100% sure, but as I understand this splitter is just used for those models that have this CAN and RS485 port combined.

I did not recieve any data when I tried the BMS port. So I guess I am using the correct port.
Some wrong setting somewhere is probably the issue I guess..

From your logs you successfully connect & read the initial sensors (including serial) from the inverter

The next line successfully reads all your sensors. +mqtt connect and you should get initial values in HA

but then things start timing out.

So either you unplugged the RS485 cable after the addon started up, or the waveshare acts up in some way.

You could try:

• adding only 1/2 sensors (no groups!!)
• making the schedules muuuuuch less aggressive. See the solarman example in the docs as guidance.

Once either of the above is working, gradually increase things (more sensors, more frequent reads) until it is working as you expect.

If it's a device issue, you can also try playing with these settings: (but almost doubt it will make a difference, since that first read of all sensors was ok)

READ_ALLOW_GAP: 2
READ_SENSORS_BATCH_SIZE: 20
