This fork has been created to support the ZCS Azzurro HYD5000 HP inverter (and HYD3000-HYD6000 HP models of course), using the provided inverter definition file zcs_azzurro_hyd5000_hp.yaml
.
These feature have been added:
- Display of Modbus addresses in HEX format in the logs (PR: StephanJoubert#495)
- Fix for the YAML file selection on the UI (PR: StephanJoubert#496)
scale
parameter automatically defaulted to 1 (PR: StephanJoubert#497)- Status entities moved to Diagnostic category (PR: StephanJoubert#498)
- New
scale_division
parameter for unit conversions, such as operating hours instead of minutes (PR: StephanJoubert#501) - New sensor with the last event ID together with date and time (to troubleshoot inverter faults afterwards)
- Last update sensor date format changed to YMD, to match with last event ID
- Complete rewrite of the inverter definition file for HYD5000 HP with useful sensors only
Home Assistant component for interacting with Solarman data collectors used with a variety of inverters. The integration allows Home Assistant to connect in direct-mode over the local network to the collector to extract the information, and no cables are required.
It has been created with a 5kW DEYE/SUNSYNK inverter and since integrated with a variety of other inverters that uses the Solarman data collector.
This component uses Pysolarman by Jonathan McCrohan for the underlying protocol, and also provides service-access to the library for advanced users. See advanced.
Feel free to discuss the integration by joining the Discord server.
This method is prefered.
For this, it is highly recomended to use the "Samba share" add-on (you will need to enable advanced mode in your user profile).
Clone or download the repo, and copy the "solarman" folder in "custom_components" to the "custom_components" folder in home assistant.
After that, the folder structure should look as follows:
custom_components
├── solarman
│ ├── __init__.py
│ ├── const.py
│ ├── manifest.json
│ ├── parser.py
│ ├── solarman.py
│ ├── sensor.py
│ └── inverter_definitions
│ ├── {inverter-definition yaml files}

- Get the IP and Serial Number to use in the configuration.
Find the internal IP of the logger on the DHCP server, and then open a browser and navigate to that address. If you are prompted for a username/password, use "admin" as username and "admin" as password.
Once logged in, expand the "Device information" and note the Device serial number, as well as the IP used.
-
Check the version of the solarman logger. If the serial number starts with 17xxxxxxx, 21xxxxxxx, 29xxxxxxx or 40xxxxxxx (protocol V5), the component should work. If not, you may need to try the component for V4 of the protocol mentioned above.
-
On your DHCP server, reserve the IP for the WiFi data logger so that it will not change.
This integration can be configured using config-flow, or by manually configuring using the configuration.yaml file. Both methods are described below:
- After the installation of this component, click on the "Configuration" tab on the left, then on "Devices & Services".
- Select the "Integrations" tab on the top of the screen, then on the "+ ADD INTEGRATION" button on the left-hand corner.
- Select the solarman integration.
4.Configure the entity by filling in the details.
In your configuration.yaml file, add the solarman platform under "sensor".

inverter_mb_slaveid: 1
lookup_file: deye_hybrid.yaml
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
name | This name will be prefixed to all parameter values (change as you like) |
inverter_host | The IP address of the data logger. (* see: autodiscover) |
inverter_port | Always 8899 |
inverter_serial | The serial number of the data collector (* see: autodiscover) |
inverter_mb_slaveid | The Modbus Slave ID of the inverter. Defaults to 1 |
scan_interval | Time in seconds between refresh intervals |
lookup_file | ** The yaml file to use for parameter-definition |
** This parameter is optional, and if not specified will revert to deye_hybrid.yaml. If you customize the parameters, create a lookup file "custom_parameters.yaml" and refer to it so that it will not be overwritten during updates.

The component has the option to auto-discover the logger IP and serial number.
To use auto discovery, the IP should be specified as 0.0.0.0 and/or the serial as 0.
NOTE: This should be used as a temporary or debug measure since the discovery only happens when the component starts and, if the logger is inaccessible at that point, the entities will unavailable until restart. This will not be the case when the IP and serial number were specified.
The section below shows an example configuration done using manual configuration. This is an option for those that want to customize the component for inverters not supported out of the box.
sensor:
- platform: solarman
name: DEYE
inverter_host: 0.0.0.0
inverter_port: 8899
inverter_serial: 0
inverter_mb_slaveid: 1
lookup_file: deye_hybrid.yaml
Once the component is running, it will add the following entities to Home Assistant.
Apart from the inverter-parameters, it will also add status entities to view the status of the solarman component (in the Diagnostic category).
The entities includes the device classes to enable it to be added to the Energy Dashboard introduced with Home Assistant Core 2021.8.
To configure the energy dashboard with the infirmation provided by this component, see configuring energy dashboard.
This integration was tested against the DEYE 5kW inverter, and it is possible that the parameter-definitions for other inverters may differ. If you want to try your hand at it, refer to customizing parameters.yaml/
