Help with new integration (newbee)

[Pinojunk]

Hi,
I recently install a SAJ H1 inverter with a chint ddsu666 sec module, I am a total beginner with home assistant but loving the experience so far.
so I found this SAJ eSolar integration and been trying run it with very limited success. I have some good values but all mixed up, and the good one I am not able to configure properly.
Please help, I am shure is my lack of knowledge.
Thanks

Hi @Pinojunk ,

No problem, could you share your component setup (without username/password_

Hi Daniel,
Thx for your help, I really appreciate your work, hope this is what you need, please request any further info.

This is how I wrote the /config/configuration.yaml

HI @Pinojunk ,

Thanks for sharing. I can see you have some unavalible values. This is due to old entities. YOu proberbly tried adding the component by the first option, this has and resource called "todayGridIncome". Later you added the H1 sensor type to the config, this has a other set of resources. Old ones are kept by home assistant and have to be manualy deleted. In other words the H1 Component does not have the "todayGridIncome" resource.

in Youre case you have an H1 and a SEC module, i have never tested a setup like this so not sure if you could add both options at the same time in my component.

Only use the avalible resources linked to your setup.
In your case only the H1 part or SEC part

Thanks Daniel for you help, I will manually clean it.

Hi Daniel,

Could you help me too with correct configuring the configuration.yaml file

Currently it looks like as follows
sensor:

• platform: saj_esolar
  username: my user name used in eSolar app
  password: my pwd used in eSolar app
  sensors: h1
  resources:
  • nowPower
  • runningState
  • todayElectricity
  • monthElectricity
  • yearElectricity
  • totalElectricity
  • todayGridIncome
  • income
  • lastUploadTime
  • totalPlantTreeNum
  • totalReduceCo2
  • todayAlarmNum
  • isAlarm
  • status
  • plantuid
  • currency
  • address
  • isOnline
  • peakPower
  • systemPower

Unfortunatelly I have got the following error measage:

Invalid config for [sensor.saj_esolar]: value must be one of ['address', 'batCapcity', 'batCurr', 'batEnergyPercent', 'batteryDirection', 'batteryPower', 'buyElec', 'buyRate', 'chargeElec', 'currency', 'devOnlineNum', 'dischargeElec', 'gridDirection', 'gridPower', 'h1Online', 'income', 'isAlarm', 'isOnline', 'lastUploadTime', 'monthElectricity', 'nowPower', 'outPower', 'outPutDirection', 'peakPower', 'plantTreeNum', 'plantname', 'plantuid', 'pvDirection', 'pvElec', 'pvPower', 'reduceCo2', 'runningState', 'selfConsumedEnergy1', 'selfConsumedEnergy2', 'selfConsumedRate1', 'selfConsumedRate2', 'selfUseRate', 'sellElec', 'sellRate', 'solarPower', 'status', 'todayAlarmNum', 'todayElectricity', 'todayGridIncome', 'totalBuyElec', 'totalBuyEnergy', 'totalConsumpElec', 'totalElectricity', 'totalGridPower', 'totalLoadEnergy', 'totalLoadPower', 'totalPlantTreeNum', 'totalPvEnergy', 'totalPvgenPower', 'totalReduceCo2', 'totalSellElec', 'totalSellEnergy', 'useElec', 'yearElectricity'] @ data['resources'][19]. Got 'systemPower'. (See ?, line ?).

What is wrong with my config?

Thx in advance!
