Growatt Hybrid Inverter

← PV, Battery, Grid, Meter

To use the active battery control, a one-time manual setup is necessary. The modbus registers 1100, 1101, 1102 need to be set to the values 0, 5947, 0 at the same time (via "write multiple", FC 16). This can be done by e.g. using the Modbus CLI: modbus [...] H@1100=0 H@1101=5947 H@1102=0. The active battery control uses the first "Battery first" timeslot, so it cannot be used otherwise.

Supported features

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