Plugin to collect from Delta DC1 data collector and connected inverters via Modbus TCP.
Purpose
The purpose of this plugin is to collect data from Delta DC1 Logger and connected Inverters.
Usage
This plugin reads the data from Delta DC1 data collectors and connected Delta inverters. This plugin relies on the Modbus Ardexa plugin, and reads from the following Delta data collector models:
DC1, D1J
Inverters that are supported through this logger include:
It uses the Modbus Specification, and collects from IP connected inverters, using TCP protocol. It will be run every 5 minutes, by default. Logger and inverter data will be collected to the solar table. The inverter will be interrogated for the following data. Due to a software bug in the Sungrow inverter, ALL values where AC Power > 100 MegaWatts will be invalidated (ie; not sent to the cloud)

There are 5 files associated with this plugin, namely delta_DC1_inverter_config.txt, delta_DC1_inverter_config-12_strings.txt, delta_DC1_inverter_config-16_strings.txt , delta_DC1_inverter_config-18_strings.txt, and delta_DC1_logger_config.txt. The logger file collects general aggregated information. The correct inverter config file should be chosen based on the number of strings connected.
Arguments
Arguments are as follows:
endpoint. This is either a serial device like /dev/ttyS0 or an IP or DNS like 192.168.1.15
bus_addresses. An RS485 address in the range 2-63. This can be a hyphenated list like 3-10 or a list like 2,5,7,9
--port. This is an optional parameter used in an Ethernet gateway, and is the TCP port used for the gateway. Default is 502
--attempts. This is an optional parameter, and determines how many times to times to attempt to read an inverter value. Default is 1
--delay. This is the delay in seconds between inverter send and receive commands, AND if attempts > 1. Fractions like 0.3 can be used. Default is 0.05
