No response

Your inverter stops responding and is timing out the integration:

2024-04-02 13:41:26.298 DEBUG (MainThread) [custom_components.solaredge_modbus_multi.hub] Registers received requested : 40 40
2024-04-02 13:41:38.311 DEBUG (MainThread) [custom_components.solaredge_modbus_multi] Finished fetching SolarEdge Coordinator data in 12.345 seconds (success: False)

The long delay between 13:41:26 and 13:41:38 should be where the integration polls the inverter for data.

Try turning off the option "Auto-Detect Additional Entities" under "Configure" button in the integration panel.

You are the best! now I was able to detect the meters, but can't find the battery. I believe there is a way to extend the time out query? thanks!!

You have battery turned off.

yes, the issue is that I'm getting the time out again when I turn the option to look for the battery on

Unfortunately that's not an integration problem I can fix, if your inverter does not respond to some modbus registers then that might be a firmware issue.

got it.. anyway thanks for your help! just to share I'm running the latest version of the firmware, just in case if someone else face the problem (there is a screenshot with all the versions at the top). thanks again!

You should read this discussion where other people have issues with battery related registers not working on some inverter models: Battery integration #63

The "Auto-Detect Additional Entities" setting is related to battery registers, so if that doesn't work then it makes sense that batteries won't work either.
