Thanks for this information. Hey Mama! Look what I did! I'm using an USR-DR302 and here's how I set it up for working with this tool: First, IP parameters: Then, serial parameters: Then I ran the jbdtool.exe with this commands: jbdtool.exe -d 2 -t ip:172.16.10.99 -m...

Docker Container Ready! https://hub.docker.com/r/gabrielpc1190/jbdtool https://github.com/gabrielpc1190/jbdtool It's working perfect for me! Let me know your feedback!

Thanks! I have MQTT broker running inside my home-assistant now and I was able to get the data into it, only I'm dealing with separating the attributes by using templates. I'm totally new on this, so I'm learning my way into getting everything working. Fancy graphs you have on that topic! I...

I have the JDB for 8 cells and it works fine. It has the RS485 so I went and bought me an RS485 to Ethernet, that way and using USR Virtual Comm I'm able to use the JDBTOOL from my computer on windows. I would like to use the Linux version on a container to publish the MQTT topic and then being...

Thanks to Growatt USA Support I got this file. Now it's time to try it. Here's it for someone else that may have the same problem as me: File on Google Drive ISP for SPF3KLV_GW502.09_20210609_A.rar Also I'm attaching the file to this post, just in case the file on the link get removed.

On Windows it works great! Thank you! What is this jbd agent you're developing?

Good news! It worked! I have my inverter back! The only thing is: Now I have more options that are not on the userguide, so will have to learn new options, not a bug but a feature! Hope this post helps somebody else in the future!

Just fixed mine with the original firmware Growatt USA support sent me. Here's the link to the post. https://diysolarforum.com/threads/growatt-spf-3000tl-lvm-24p-original-firmware.33207/

The wire looks perfectly fine.

Hi everyone. Today I wanted to update the firmware on my inverter because weeks ago I got an error that says fault 08, and reading somewhere (don't remember where) it says to update the firmware. So I got this file: https://watts247.com/manuals/gw/Firmware/SPF3000TL-LVM-ES/ I guess it's a...

Can you tell me what is a ferrule? I'm not native english speaker and the translator is not helping that much!

It looks awesome! Thank you! I'll order them, hopefully will receive them after I fix my firmware! If anyone knows how to get the firmware for this, let me know. Growatt SPF3000TL LVM-24P

Do you still have the firmware for it? I'm now able to communicate with it using the USB port

How are you able to connect your Growatt to Home Assistant? I've been trying this for weeks now but no luck. None of the RS485 ports on the inverter sends data so I'm unable to get data from it. Also mine does have a serial connection but looks like a D-SUB for connecting other units in parallel

Seems like this one publishes more attributes on the mqtt topic than this other tool Then be carefull when extracting the attributes. One really useful attribute that is missing is RemainingCapacity, that I found totally essential for me. Example: jbdtool_win32.zip gives me this on this topic...

Anyone knows if this BMS is compatible with the JBD Tool ? BMS on eBay Or please point me to where to ask, or maybe a link to a JBD BMS on eBay?

Can this be used on windows and use the mqtt function? Or it only works for Linux?

Or if anyone knows how to get the information out of this and directly to home assistant, I'm all ears (or ?)!

Another question arrives: Does jbdtool_win32.zip for Windows have the same functionality than jbdtool_linux64_static.zip for linux? I'm planning on creating a docker container (no idea how, but will find out) that will run jbdtool_linux64_static.zip 24/7 on my Synology NAS to feed in real time...

This is basic information on how to use the JBD BMS (Overkill Solar) on RS485 connected to the RS485 to TCP adapter USR-DR302 in Home Assistant, using jbdtool or jbd for Windows to push to MQTT broker on Home Assistant: (sorry, I needed to include all key words for better search results ;-))...

Any idea on how to explode the two temperature values into separate sensors? Maybe too easy, but I'm doing copy and paste with little understanding on how json or yaml language works. Also, I noticed that JDBTOOL.exe on windows is not respecting the port number after the IP address of the host...

I don't know, and I wouldn't risk putting the wrong firmware, after I suffered some dark days without solar generation, Now I really value the stability of my inverter. You can ask Growatt support, to go for a safer route.

Today I'm noticiing a pretty similar problem on one of my cells. I have 8 100Ah LIFEPO4 cells. The 6th on the group is behaving totally crazy. I'm waiting for some additional charge on them to compare top charge voltage, but that 6th cell is going really high. My BMS is JBD-SP10S009

Mine is this one in 24V: Growatt SPF-3000 lvm 24 volts. I got the WiFi dongle and I'm able to see the information on server.growatt.com, but I was hopping to be able to extract the data by RS485 using MODBUS, it's a lot faster and not cloud-dependant, but I tried several configurations and was...

Home assistant, that is feed by an MQTT broker, that receives the signal from jbdtool, that receives MODBUS to TCP adapter, that receives the signals from my BMS. I just finish doing a manual balancing by using a light bulb. Here's what I got. Now time to wait and see what continues to happen...

Did it trip again? or it's finally solved? It happened to me too, but the GFCI was downlink the inverter.

Or maybe Will Prowse always had bad experience with those active balancers. He doesn't recommend them at all. I don't have experience with them

Can you connect to multiple BMS by using the same rs485 adapter? Can you change the address of the BMS?

OMG, so many tools to try now! Thanks! A question: Which TCP port is the utility using when connecting to the WiFi module?

I use Home Assistant on a a HASSIO VM inside my Synology NAS, seems to be the best suited version for my little knowledge :)
