  • Press "Add new plant with inverter Deye connected to DeyeCloud" if you have Deye Hybryd inverter connected to DeyeCloud
  • Press "Add new plant with Solarman" if you have Deye Hybryd inverter connected to program Solarman (and don't want to use HomeAssistant)
  • Press "Add new plant with Solarman" if you have Other Hybryd inverter connected to program Solarman and you know how to set registers for different modes from program.
  • Press "Add new plant with HomeAssistant" if you have Deye Hybryd inverter connected to HomeAsistant (with or without SolarAssistant) OR other Hybryd inverter connected directly to HomeAssistant. 
  • Press "Add new plant with GbbConnect" if you have Deye Hybryd inverter not connected to HomeAssistant and not connected to Solarman program

- Fill in all fields and continue with FastSetup. After fill in all fields press 'Make Changes'
- In 'Prices' module: you should setup your purchase and sell prices.
- In 'Profile of Loads' module: you can enter manually your house AC Loads or import it from Plant

After that:

  • Plant is in testing mode. To start sending setup to Plant you should  switch off 'Test mode' in 'Battery Forecast' module
  • 'Optimizer based on prices' is selected
  • It is best to wait a week for the load profile to update and for the correction factor to be calculated in the PV forecast.
  • Only after a week turn off  'testing mode'

Most important things to check:

  • If prices are correct. Remember to enter transportation costs for purchase prices. 
  • If PV forecast is correct. If not you can check other PV forecast source.
  • If Load profile is correct. If you don't want enter manualy profile than you should wait week to all get data.
