#Description This is a set of python scripts used for controlling a DIY battery storage for a Photovoltaic based system. Two python scripts plus a iobroker installation on a raspberry pi.

bms_post.py is used to parse the information coming via bluetooth from a china made Battery Monitoring System which is taking care of a 16s LIFEPO 100Ah bank. The type of BMS is ANT (can be found on aliexpress) The script reads info from the serial port and sends it via simple_api to iobroker signals

si_control.py is the main control script: It reads some information directly from the pI (ADC converter reading battery pack voltage) as well as grid and photovoltaic powers (using TCP Modbus from a Fronius Inverter). Some signals are read from iobroker via simple_api.

Work in progress.
