How to use

SystemStatus class object is iterator containing all live status data of TS-MPPT-60. Try the following line.

print(SystemStatus("192.168.1.20").get())

The result is like following.

{'Amp Hours': {'group': 'Counter', 'unit': 'Ah', 'value': 18097.9},
 'Array Current': {'group': 'Array', 'unit': 'A', 'value': 1.4},
 'Array Voltage': {'group': 'Array', 'unit': 'V', 'value': 53.41},
 'Battery Voltage': {'group': 'Battery', 'unit': 'V', 'value': 23.93},
 'Charge Current': {'group': 'Battery', 'unit': 'A', 'value': 3.2},
 'Heat Sink Temperature': {'group': 'Temperature', 'unit': 'C', ...},
 'Kilowatt Hours': {'group': 'Counter', 'unit': 'kWh', 'value': 237.0},
 'Target Voltage': {'group': 'Battery', 'unit': 'V', 'value': 28.6}}

The above data is limited information. You can disable the limitter by setting False to the second argument as SystemStatus() class.

print(SystemStatus("192.168.1.20").get(False))

The result is like following.

{'Amp Hours': {'group': 'Counter', 'unit': 'Ah', 'value': 18097.8},
 'Array Current': {'group': 'Array', 'unit': 'A', 'value': 1.3},
 'Array Voltage': {'group': 'Array', 'unit': 'V', 'value': 53.41},
 'Battery Temperature': {'group': 'Temperature', 'unit': 'C', ...},
 'Battery Voltage': {'group': 'Battery', 'unit': 'V', 'value': 24.01},
 'Charge Current': {'group': 'Battery', 'unit': 'A', 'value': 3.2},
 'Heat Sink Temperature': {'group': 'Temperature', 'unit': 'C', ...},
 'Kilowatt Hours': {'group': 'Counter', 'unit': 'kWh', 'value': 237.0},
 'Output Power': {'group': 'Battery', 'unit': 'W', 'value': 76.0},
 'Sweep Pmax': {'group': 'Array', 'unit': 'W', 'value': 73.0},
 'Sweep Vmp': {'group': 'Array', 'unit': 'V', 'value': 53.41},
 'Sweep Voc': {'group': 'Array', 'unit': 'V', 'value': 60.05},
 'Target Voltage': {'group': 'Battery', 'unit': 'V', 'value': 28.6}}

JSON string can be got with following code.

$ python -c "from tsmppt60_driver import *; import json; print(json.dumps(SystemStatus('192.168.1.20').get()))" | jq '."Battery Voltage"'

{
  "group": "Battery",
  "value": 28.6,
  "unit": "V"
}
