Hi everyone, I’m New to OH and i want to connect my Kostal Plenticore Solar Inverter to OPENHAB. I found a binding plugin for my solar Inverter, but I’m Not able to get some data from the Inverter. I’ve done same aß descripted here . Could there be a problem With the updated Inverter Firmware? Bw …

Hi, another thread helped me to solve the problem with the Kostal Binding. Simple solution: Upgrade to openHAB 2.5.0.M4. The Kostal binding in this version is working nice with the current generation of a Kostal Plenticore 7 inverter. BW

Hi, I’m using this plugin (Version 2.4) with OH 2.4.0 on a Ubuntu LTS Server. I’ve done the setup exactly how IT is described at the plugin Website, but I’m Not able to connect to the solar Inverter… Bw Maximilian

Since you are new here, I need to ask. What version of Java? A common mistake is to use something newer than Java 8 which can cause issues. That page does not say how to install OpenHAB properly.
