How to set home assistant to control discharge/export?

[dpw123]

Hi

Thank you for a great integration, seems to be much more responsive than the main app! I've already got some nice widgets on my phone and a working In Home Display on a CYD. I'll pop the yaml in for that when I'm happy with the visuals!

In the meantime, how do I set up some homeassistant automations to control charging from and discharging to grid?

Ultimately I want to predict tomorrow generation and usage based on my calendar and history, then only charge enough. Maybe overthinking the project🙃.

My understanding is that this functionality is not implemented, or at least not enabled by default. If you navigate to Settings ==> Devices and Sensors ==> Sigenergy ESS ==> Sigen Plant ... there are 3 disabled entities under "Controls" and 28 disabled entities under "Configuration". You can enable these entities, play with their values, and report back here what happens :P Without any documentation, I haven't been too keen to poke around yet.

Actually ... we're in luck!

https://sigenergy.annable.me/ - can the battery control be done without disabling smartshift?

ie if I just want to trigger a battery charge if Solcast is forecasting low and Amber rate is reported low?
