← PV, Battery, Grid, Meter

The battery's local mode must be enabled in the manufacturer's app. Furthermore, the device's IP address must be set to a fixed, permanent IP address in the router. If the grid mode is used, an external meter (e.g., Shelly) must be connected to the battery to measure the grid connection point (via the manufacturer's app).

Supported features

Battery control: External control of home battery charging and discharging via evcc.
