Data updates
This integration establishes a persistent TCP connection with the EVT800 in TCP server mode and listens for incoming data packets containing the latest sensor values.
Known limitations
- The integration does not support any actions for the device.
- To execute any actions on the inverter, use the official EnverBridge or EnverView mobile app.
- Requires sufficient solar input for operation. The inverter is not reachable at night or in low-light conditions.
Troubleshooting
Problem: Data shows “Unavailable”
Cause
Incorrect configuration or the device is not powered.
Resolution
- Ensure the EVT800 is receiving enough sunlight to power on.
- Verify that your Home Assistant instance is on the same local network as the EVT800.
- Double-check the following:
- Correct IP address and Port.
- TCP server mode is enabled on the inverter.
- No firewall or router setting is blocking local TCP connections.
Losing connection to the device
- If you frequently lose connection to the device, consider assigning a static IP to your EVT800 in your router’s DHCP settings.
Removing the integration
