This is a Java translation of the C++ SBFSpot program, https://sbfspot.codeplex.com/. It can read data from a SMA solar inverter such as power production, device temperature and a whole lot more.

It only works for ethernet connections, bluetooth is not supported in this version. Also logging to various solar sites as well as csv and sql are removed for now.

The plan is to transform this project into to some form of api so it can be uses in a more flexible way. The current version does basically the same as the original SBFspot project.

To use this project you need Java version 8 and a SMA solar inverter, no additionally libraries are needed. Use the argument -v[1-5] to set the level of logging and -d[1-5] to set the level of debug information.

Major props to the creators of the original SBFspot project.
