Solar PV Monitoring

Hi Guys,

I wonder if anyone has any advise with regard to Solar PV monitoring.

We have just had installed a 4KW 16 Panel system. The HA nerd inside my
really really wants to get some kind of monitoring going. At the moment I
have to go into the loft and take a look at the inverter.

The inverter is a Diehl Ako Platinum 3800. I couldn't see any kind of
serial port, but it was so hot in the attic I didn't stay long :D

It also has a meter to the side of it that has a flashing LED (I seem to
remember something about using that for HA but can't remember)

So, there *must* be a HA way of monitoring this. I current have a Homeseer
system and would love to see graphics in that, but would love to just get a
way to see whats being generated without going into the loft :D

Any help appreciated.

Marc
