Settings¶
These are the fields on the Setup > Hardware page when you add or edit the myenergi Monitor hardware. The settings page itself is always in English, regardless of the Language setting below.
Connection¶
| Setting | Type | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hub Serial Number | text, required | The serial number of your myenergi hub, shown in the myenergi app and printed on the hub. Used as the API username. | |
| API Key | text, required, masked | The API key generated in the myenergi app (Account > Advanced > API key). Grants full control of your charger and is stored as plain, readable text in the Domoticz database. See Security. |
Charger control¶
| Setting | Options | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Allow Control | No / Yes | No | Turns on the charger control devices (charge mode, boost, min-green). Off by default: the plugin stays read-only until you turn this on. Once enabled, the control devices become writable in Domoticz; use Domoticz's own per-user device permissions to control which Domoticz users can operate them. See Charger control. |
Language¶
| Setting | Options | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Language | English / Nederlands | English | Language used for device names and status text (for example "Fast/Eco/Eco+/Stop" versus "Snel/Eco/Eco+/Stop"). Does not affect the settings page itself. |
Polling¶
| Setting | Range | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Live Poll Interval (s) | 15-300, step 5 | 20 | How often, in seconds, the plugin fetches live power and status from the myenergi cloud. myenergi data updates roughly once a second, so 15-30s is plenty and keeps requests gentle on their cloud. |
| Counter Refresh (every N live polls) | 1-60, step 1 | 6 | How often the plugin refreshes the cumulative kWh counters from myenergi's per-minute energy history, expressed as a multiple of the live poll interval. At the default 20s live poll and a value of 6, counters refresh every 120s. A value of 1 refreshes counters on every live poll, which is the heaviest setting on myenergi's cloud. |
Advanced¶
| Setting | Range / options | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Max System Power (kW) | 1-100, step 1 | 25 | A safety limit for the energy counters, roughly your combined solar, grid, and charger capacity in kW. The plugin uses it to spot and reject an unrealistic jump in a counter; it does not limit the live power readings themselves. |
| Debug Level | None / Basic / Verbose | None | Logging verbosity written to the Domoticz log. Use Basic or Verbose only while troubleshooting; the API key is never written to the log at any level. |
Harvi Names (optional)¶
Four optional serial/name slots let you give a harvi a friendly, restart-proof name instead of
its default Harvi <serial>. All eight fields are optional and blank by default.
| Setting | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Harvi 1 serial | text, optional | Serial number of a harvi, copied from its auto-created device name. |
| Harvi 1 name | text, optional | Friendly name to use for that harvi instead of Harvi <serial>. |
| Harvi 2 serial / name | text, optional | Same, for a second harvi. |
| Harvi 3 serial / name | text, optional | Same, for a third harvi. |
| Harvi 4 serial / name | text, optional | Same, for a fourth harvi. |
You usually don't need these
The simplest way to name a harvi is to rename the auto-created Harvi <serial> device
directly in Domoticz; the plugin never overwrites a name you've set. Use the Harvi Names
slots instead only if you want the name to survive deleting and recreating the device. See
Monitoring devices for details.
Settings changes restart the plugin
Saving hardware settings restarts the plugin's connection to Domoticz. As part of that restart, it checks the current Allow Control setting and shows or hides the charger control devices to match. Expect a short gap in polling right after you save.
