SimplerDeyes Solar Manager

Making managing your solar installation simple, easy, and efficient.

Who is this for?

Anyone using a Deye inverter and a Solarman logger

SimplerDeyes is only compatible with Deye Hybrid inverters with a Solarman logger.

Anyone wanting to get the most out of their solar investment by tailoring the systems behaviour to their requirements

Many installations are not necessarily 100% off-grid with various configurations, some of which don’t allow for maximizing the potential of the system without micromanaging the settings. For example, running the pool pump off the excess solar during a good day but not on a cloudy day. Some installations have all the heavy costly load on non-essentials, being able to supply these when conditions are good saves money.

Anyone needing email alerts from their system

Getting alerts from the conventional systems has some challenges, if your inverter stops you may or may not get alerted via the conventional providers. SimplerDeyes, polls and alerts via email in the email communications with the inverter stop or if there are fault or grid changes.

Anyone wanting to use SNMP to monitor their installation

Monitoring tools use a variety of mechanisms to collect data. One of the most common is SNMP. SimplerDeyes collects the metrics from the inverter via the logger and makes them accessible via SNMP to external monitoring systems.

Inverter Settings

It is not always easy to discern which are the best settings to use and these may change over time depending on the season. For many people, trying to figure out which settings best suit their needs can be challenging. SimplerDeyes provides usage metrics from which to derive the settings which suit you.

FAQ

Is it Free?

No, well, maybe... Depending on your requirements. If you’re looking for a solar manager that will supply non-essentials when conditions are good and only supply essentials when conditions are bad, then this is for you! For these requirements, the trial license should save you in one month what it costs for a whole year, so "Cost Mitigated" is what we’re shooting for.

Does it support SNMP?

Yes, SimplerDeyes supports SNMP v1/v2 polling from external monitoring systems.

Do I need a Raspberry Pi?

No, SimplerDeyes runs on Microsoft, Linux, Android ... AND, yes, RaspberrryPi (Linux ARM64) to. However, whatever platform it runs on needs to be permanently connected to the network the logger is on. This means that installing on an android device in use won’t work. However, if you have an old phone/tablet, even with a cracked screen sitting in a drawer somewhere, then you’re good to go.

Does SimplerDeyes replace Deye Cloud or Solarman?

No, SimplerDeyes currently only retains 1 week (7 days) of data. For long-term data analysis, Solarman/Deye Cloud would still be required. It does not interfere with or replace the conventional cloud providers.

Does SimplerDeyes need an internet connection?

No, for normal operation, SimplerDeyes requires no internet connection, with the caveat being email alerts will not work without an internet connection.

What personal data does SimplerDeyes collect?

Only the serial number of the logger and the email address of the purchaser are stored by SimplerDeyes. No credit card information, phone number, addresses, etc., are stored or even processed by SimplerDeyes. Payments are done via Payfast, a secure third-party payment gateway.
