Summary

  • Ports sourceful-hugin/device-support/drivers/lua/fronius.lua to 42W's v2.1 Lua host idiom as drivers/fronius.lua.
  • Read-only driver for Fronius Symo / Primo GEN24 hybrid inverters over Modbus TCP (SunSpec).
  • Emits PV (MPPT V/A, lifetime Wh, temp, rated W), Battery (W/V/SoC from charge/discharge-rate × max charge power), and a meter-shaped emission derived from inverter AC values. Scalar diagnostics (MPPT, Hz, heatsink, per-phase V/A/W, battery DC V) land in the long-format TSDB.

Port notes

The hugin driver leaned on host.decode_f32 and host.scale, which 42W's Lua host does not expose. Both are inlined:

  • decode_f32_be(hi, lo) — IEEE 754 single-precision via bit-math on the two u16 registers (big-endian word order). Treats NaN/Inf (SunSpec 0x7FC00000) as 0.
  • apply_sf(v, sf) — SunSpec int16 scale factor: v * 10^sf (split on sign).

Other API drift fixed: host.log(msg) → host.log("info", msg); host.decode_u32/i32 → _be variants.

Device identity anchors on SunSpec Common block serial number (holding 40052, 16 regs / 32 chars). Falls back to MAC/endpoint when the gateway doesn't expose the common block.

Battery/MPPT control was never implemented in hugin's fronius.lua either — GEN24 Modbus control needs the paid Modbus-control licence; left as a logged stub.

Test plan

  • go test ./internal/drivers/ passes
  • go test ./... passes (full suite)
  • make e2e passes
  • Lua parses cleanly via gopher-lua
  • LoadCatalog picks up the metadata: id=fronius, name="Fronius GEN24", protocols=[modbus], capabilities=[meter,pv,battery]
  • Live test against a real Symo/Primo GEN24 (follow-up — no hardware in CI)

Port of sourceful-hugin's fronius.lua to the forty-two-watts v2.1 Lua
host idiom. Read-only driver for Fronius Symo/Primo GEN24 hybrid
inverters over Modbus TCP (SunSpec).

The hugin driver leaned on host.decode_f32 and host.scale, which 42W's
host does not expose. Both are now inlined: IEEE 754 single-precision
decoding via bit-math on the two u16 registers (big-endian word order),
and SunSpec int16 scale factors applied with 10^sf / 10^-sf. Also
swaps host.log(msg) for host.log(level, msg) and host.decode_u32/i32
for the _be variants — matches the v2.1 API.

Emits pv (with MPPT + lifetime + temp + rated_w), battery (w/v/soc
derived from charge/discharge-rate percents × max charge power), and
a meter-shaped emission derived from AC values so per-phase data shows
up in the TSDB. Sign flip at the boundary: dc_w → -dc_w for PV;
discharge_rate drives bat_w negative, charge_rate drives it positive.
Scalar diagnostics (MPPT V/A, heatsink temp, grid Hz, per-phase V/A/W,
battery DC V) land in the long-format TSDB via emit_metric.

Device identity anchors on Fronius SunSpec Common block serial number
(holding register 40052, 16 regs / 32 chars); falls back to mac/endpoint
when the gateway doesn't expose the common block.

Control is intentionally a stub — Fronius GEN24 battery control needs
the Modbus-control licence and is out of scope here.

Verified: make e2e + go test ./internal/drivers/ + catalog entry
parses (id=fronius, name="Fronius GEN24", protocols=[modbus],
capabilities=[meter,pv,battery]).

P1 Badge Do not publish inverter output as site meter power

meter.w is currently set to ac_w, which is inverter AC output rather than net grid import/export, even though the comment says this block is not a grid-side meter. The control path reads the configured is_site_meter value as the grid feedback signal (go/internal/control/dispatch.go), and config validation requires at least one site meter, so Fronius-only (or misassigned) setups will run dispatch against the wrong signal and command batteries in the wrong direction.
