# Sonnen Binding

The binding for sonnen communicates with a sonnen battery. More information about the sonnen battery can be found here (opens new window). The binding supports the old deprecated V1 from sonnen as well as V2 which requires an authentication token. More information about the V2 API can be found at http://LOCAL-SONNENBATTERY-SYSTEM-IP/api/doc.html

# Supported Things

Thing Type Description
sonnenbattery Monitoring of a sonnen battery

# Thing Configuration

Only the parameter hostIP is required; this is the IP address of the sonnen battery in your local network. If you want to use the V2 API, which supports more channels, you need to provide the authToken.

# Channels

The following channels are yet supported:

Channel Type Access Description
batteryChargingState Switch read Indicates if the Battery is charging at that moment
batteryCharging Number:Power read Indicates the actual current charging the Battery. Otherwise 0.
batteryDischargingState Switch read Indicates if the Battery is discharging at that moment
batteryDischarging Number:Power read Indicates the actual current discharging the Battery. Otherwise 0.
consumption Number:Power read Indicates the actual consumption of the consumer in watt
gridFeedIn Number:Power read Indicates the actual current feeding to the Grid in watt.0 if nothing is feeded
gridConsumption Number:Power read Indicates the actual current consumption from the Grid in watt.0 if nothing is received
solarProduction Number:Power read Indicates the actual production of the Solar system in watt
batteryLevel Number read Indicates the actual Battery Level in % from 0 - 100
flowConsumptionBatteryState Switch read Indicates if there is a current flow from Battery towards Consumption
flowConsumptionGridState Switch read Indicates if there is a current flow from Grid towards Consumption
flowConsumptionProductionState Switch read Indicates if there is a current flow from Solar Production towards Consumption
flowGridBatteryState Switch read Indicates if there is a current flow from Grid towards Battery
flowProductionBatteryState Switch read Indicates if there is a current flow from Production towards Battery
energyImportedStateProduction Number:Energy read Indicates the imported kWh Production
energyExportedStateProduction Number:Energy read Indicates the exported kWh Production
energyImportedStateConsumption Number:Energy read Indicates the imported kWh Consumption
energyExportedStateConsumption Number:Energy read Indicates the exported kWh Consumption
