Hello,
I haven't received any hex data from a charge controller for some time. I haven't checked whether it can still be controlled via the hex protocol, and I haven't done anything to end this state, since I have way too many other things to do.
does anyone have an idea how this can happen? the firmware 1.17 is still installed. At the next opportunity I will probably update everyone to the latest firmware, but that currently has no high priority on my to-do list and it should probably cause problems with some charge controllers because of the pv voltage at night and the change of day.
I've only tried it once with a restart via vedirect, but that probably didn't work. the next attempt would then be to completely de-energize the charge controller in the hope that it will then work again. I also don't know whether a firmware update can be imported in this state. does anyone happen to know this?
goodbye
