During installation, the following dialog is shown:

It should explain to the user, that host, username and password are supposed to be entered.

As commented here it should also at least explain to include the http schema.

Please find attached the error message reported back by the system protocol.

Hi 👋
It looks like you were trying to add this to the Supervisor repositories. This is not an add-on repository for the supervisor.
You may either add this to your Home Assistant using the source code (which I do not recommend) or you will have to use HACShttps://hacs.xyz/ to be able to add this as a custom repository to your installation.
You can find documentation for that here: https://hacs.xyz/docs/faq/custom_repositories/

Hope that helps :-)

Hi there,

first thank you for your work on this project. I have a couple of questions as i don't get the Piko BA version to work.

I have installed the kostal integrations from gieljnssns which is working fine on 6 different Kostal Piko Inverters. But there is one more, a Piko BA 10.1 inverter which i can't get to work.

If i use platform: kostal_piko , it is unknown from HA, did gieljnssns changed the platform name from kostal_piko to kostal only?

Further i do not understand how the authentication is made in your version for the Piko BA inverter.

There is no such username or password, i have also tried with following as host:

http://pvserver:<YOUR_PASSWORD>@<YOUR_INVERTER_IP>/index.fhtml

Also not working. I would appreciate if you could give me a hint or any reply to get the last of this inverters into HA.

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

not all status are properly in line with HA, i know you added some new recently, i was able to capture event "7' , i looked in webpage

Event 7 = (Isolatie meting) (dutch translation) => in german => Isolationsmessung

I also see sometimes event 8 , but was not able to capture it yet from webserver

It turned out that username and password are totally optional for accessing the api and thus should be optional for the setup in HomeAssistant as well.
This needs double-checking for all values and possibly and update to the pykostal library.

hello im trying to setup the integration and has run into trouble, firstly the configuration wizard doesnt display any text, and when i insert the values (guessed which was which) i get this message "cannot_connect"

Hello, I have PIKO 5.5 with FW 5.44
and before I checked this one https://github.com/rcasula/kostalpiko-homeassistant
that was connect without problems.

Than I would like to try yours.

After
HOST: http://192.168.178.XX
USER: pvserver
PW: XXXXXXX

It came to no connection possible

The documentation needs to be extended:

• What inverters have been tested and what firmware do they run?
• How to install/ configure?
• Technical details if necessary

Hi,, as discussed this morning, seems those are the correct status...

  #0 = off
  #1 = idle (?)
  #2 = starting but DC current too low (?)
  #3 = injecting (MPP)
  #4 = injecting (limited)

Can you add those to your hacs version?

taken from:

https://github.com/sla89/hassio-kostal-piko/blob/main/docs/api.yaml
https://www.msxfaq.de/sonst/iot/kostal15.htm

Currently it is not possible to connect to the inverter when the hostname is typed in with a trailing slash (like 192.168.0.123/).
This should really be handled by the code.

Hi,

First of all thanks for your work!

I wanted to add the folder to the custom_components. Can you give a short example how to add this component to the configuration.yaml?

Kind Regards

Hi.
When i try to follow the instructions and installing it using HACS, i get the following when i try to add to as an integration.
Can you please describe what needs to be filled out at the different fields?

I didn't know where to put it, but I wanted to mention that you can add the Kostal Piko 4.2 inverter to your compatibility list. It just needs to run the latest firmware that has been released for it (the device is discontinued, I think):

Hello,
many thanks for this integration. I'm new with Home Assistant (previously used FHEM) and I'm currently testing whether all my smart home components work with HA.
I have a Kostal Piko 6.0 BA with firmware 02.22. The integration seems to be working so far.
But maybe a beginner question, how can I change the polling interval?
Thanks, Michael

I just wanted to report the integration working fine on our PIKO 12.

Hi,
I would like to encourage you to work an your project.
On my side I am trying to get a 2013 Kostal Piko 7 FW<5 working
with homeassistant, but I still did not manage it.
Greetings
Frank

When adding the git url to the add-on store repository, a failure "https://github.com/scheidtdav/homeassistant-kostal-piko is not a valid add-on repository" appears.

Am I missing a file or information? I used the repository add-on to tool before and it worked. However, in the meantime I use HA 11.5 core and the latest UI.
