2 inverters one needs 1 string the other needs 2 set in ini file

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I have 2 inverters T1 4000E1.00 TL4300  works correctly with 2 strings set in 
eversolar.ini 

I also have an  1500E1.00 TL1500 AS which needs 1 String set in the ini.

I cant have both working at the same time,

Would it be easy enough set the strings based on what type of inverter it is 
instead of in the config>option
s

cheers

i have added the %DATA_BYTES= under 
foreach $inverter (keys(%inverters)) {

simply checking against my serial numbers to decide which config to use.

cheers.


foreach $inverter (keys(%inverters)) {
        $response = send_request($inverter, $CTRL_FUNC_CODES{"READ"}{"QUERY_NORMAL_INFO"});
        if($response) {
            # good response - reset response_timeout_count
            $inverters{$inverter}{"response_timeout_count"} = 0;

            $serial = ($inverters{$inverter}{"serial"});

            if($serial == "8891500A40B05707"){
            print "Serial: $serial\n";

            %DATA_BYTES = (
            "TEMP"        => 0,
            "E_TODAY"     => 1,

            }

            if($serial == "A984300A128P0066"){

Well spotted, I'll see if I can come up with a more sturdy solution for mixing 
single string inverters with multiple string inverters in the next iteration

I will be needing this enhancement soon as I put up my third array. Thanks

[solmoller]

I doubt I'll find time to look at this for you, but I can assist if you attempt to change the code

[LeighAS]

ok I will see how I go. My languages are c++ and c# so perl is a bit foreign. will be next week before I get my new panels and I have to build a pergola for them too but after that I will definitely be looking into this. I was also wondering about a 3rd or 4th inverter but again I will have to try it for myself.
