Fronius control via Victron Venus OS and NodeRed

Good Morning,


I am looking at using a Fronius Primo Gen 24 Plus inverter and a Victron Multiplus II GX.


I know that they play well together, as the Fronius appears in the Victron VRM, and there is a joint webinar of the interoperability of these two manufacturers by Fronius/Victron.


What I am trying to find out is if any of the Fronius functionality is available within the Victron Venus OS (NodeRed) for control/programming purposes, on the same lines that you can run Nodered scripts to control the Multiplus's?


Any help or guidance would be appreciated.


TIA,


Graham.

Yes there is a way to control a fronius using node red. I haven't tried with a Gen 24 but have a primo.

The newer firmware on venus os large already has some built in.

FYI modifications has moved to https://victron.discourse.group/

Currently playing with the power limit node (under victrons palette) and some math nodes using information from loads etc.
