Since it’s my data, I’d rather be in control myself, so here are some links that will help me going around the Zevercloud solution I posted about yesterday.
- Raspberry Pi based:
- Parse RS485 data
- eversolar-monitor/Introduction.md at wiki · solmoller/eversolar-monitor (including suitable RS485 hardware)
- solmoller/eversolar-monitor: Script to capture data and create statistics from Eversolar/zeversolar Solar Inverters. Includes easy install image files for Raspberry Pi. Working edition since 2012 :-)
- Upload to Domoticz · Issue #14 · solmoller/eversolar-monitor
- Some merges still need to be done: Network Graph · solmoller/eversolar-monitor
- In case of connection trouble:
- The above started out as this:
- eversolar-monitor/Introduction.md at wiki · solmoller/eversolar-monitor (including suitable RS485 hardware)
- Parse Zeverlution web-server
- Parse RS485 data
- Arduino based:
Some other interesting links of software supporting Zeversolar devices:
Note that PVoutput.org does have native ZeverCloud updating using the ZeverSolar API key:
- [WayBack] Zeversolar auto Updater – Auto Uploader – PVOutput Community
- [WayBack] 2017-04-20 Zevercloud Auto Uploader – What’s New – PVOutput Community
But these might help me:
- [WayBack] GitHub – solmoller/eversolar-monitor: Script to capture data and create statistics from Eversolar/zeversolar Solar Inverters. Includes easy install image files for Raspberry Pi. Working edition since 2012 :-)
- [WayBack] GitHub – smeyn/ZeverSolar: Python reader from a Zever Solar web server

[WayBack] Jeroen Pluimers on Twitter: “We are sort of lucky: The @Zeversolar 3860 problem was cabling; one of the connectors had come loose, dropped to the ground, got moist and had a bit of DC current earth leaking. The safety mechanism in the converter found this, hence Error Code 38: … 1/2”[WayBack] Jeroen Pluimers on Twitter: “This must have happened between sunset and sunrise, where also the lightning strike happened. All connectors have been re-fastened on 60 cm height. If this ever happens again, I know what to check first. 2/2”
Error Code 38:
- Check the PV array’s insulation to ground and make sure that the insulation resistance to ground is greater than 1 MOhm. Otherwise, make a visual inspection of all PV cables and modules.
- Make sure the grounding connection of the inverter is reliable. If this fault occurs often, contact the service.
