Home assistant integration help

I have been, unsuccessfully, trying to get home assistant to talk to my GX. The docs are confusing and dated.

Does anyone have a simple guide for setting up the configuration.yaml file?

HA keeps complaining about "mapping values not allowed here" and the various examples all differ from each other.

I have resolved the issue. Part of the problem is using a Mac (M1) with apple silicone.

HA tries to load Pymodbus and failed. It needed to be removed then reinstalled.

At that point I could successfully pull data off the Victron systems.

solved that error, was a syntax issue. Just cannot get anything from the Victron to appear (and Modbus is enabled on the GX).
