Capabilities
Everything you need
Built for Growatt SPH hybrid inverters with WiFi or LAN datalogger
TCP + UDP Protocol
Listens for incoming inverter connections on both TCP and UDP. Handles XOR-encrypted protocol 06, registration handshakes, ping/ACK, and buffered records automatically.
Home Assistant via MQTT
Publishes real-time inverter data as JSON to any MQTT broker. Includes automatic HA MQTT Discovery — sensors appear instantly with correct device classes and units.
InfluxDB v2
Write every reading directly to InfluxDB for long-term time-series storage. Pair with Grafana for beautiful historical dashboards and energy analytics.
PVOutput
Automatically upload generation data to PVOutput.org. Configurable rate limiting, temperature reporting, and energy/power values — all correctly scaled.
REST API + Web UI
Built-in live dashboard and REST API to monitor all connected inverters, browse raw values, inspect registry state, and configure MQTT on the fly.
Docker Ready
Zero-config Docker deployment. All credentials are passed via environment variables — no config files to manage. Runs on any ARM or x86 host.
Get Started
Up and running in minutes
