Monitoring for JFY solar inverter written in C for linux.
This is a simple program to read the inverter data from a JFY grid connected solar inverter.
This program was inspired by solarmonj by Adam Gray and John Croucher https://code.google.com/p/solarmonj/ and created to provide some different configuration and logging options. I have added some command line options to change the way the system connects to a serial port and logs the collected data. These modifications could also easily be added to the solarmonj program.
To build the application under Linux or OSX
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ make
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo cp solarmon /usr/bin
To test the application you can run the following
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ solarmon -d -p /dev
Failed to open serial port.
pi@raspberrypi ~ $
Then if you know which serial port you are using
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ solarmon -d -p /dev/ttyS0
==> A5A50100304400FE410A0D
==> A5A50100304000FE450A0D
Failed to register inverter.
pi@raspberrypi ~ $
And finally if you have the inverter attached to your system
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ ./solarmon -d -p /dev/ttyUSB0
==> A5A50100304400FE410A0D
==> A5A50100304000FE450A0D

pi@raspberrypi ~ $
You can then add the program to your system's cron to run every minute appending to a file, for example:
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo -i
pi@raspberrypi ~ # echo "# Run solarmon every minute" > /etc/cron.d/solarmon
pi@raspberrypi ~ # echo "* * * * * root /usr/bin/solarmon -p /dev/ttyUSB0 >> /tmp/solarmon-out" >> /etc/cron.d/solarmon
pi@raspberrypi ~ # exit
pi@raspberrypi ~ $
or this line to add to the system logs
pi@raspberrypi ~ # echo "* * * * * root /usr/bin/solarmon -p /dev/ttyUSB0 | /usr/bin/logger" >> /etc/cron.d/solarmon
