Solis API with Control - only on first inverter

[Tadpole48]

I selected to have the Beta Solis Control, this works but I have two Solis inverters, the first in the list has "Controls" AND "Sensors", the second in the list only has "Sensors" (the second inverter is a hybrid with batteries and that is the one I really need control over)

Versions
HA OS Version 15.1
HACS version 2.0.5
Integration version 3.9.0

I am VERY new to HA and the Solis API - please be kind!

Looks more like the software is supposed to detect which (if multiple inverters) inverter has a battery attached. But it has selected the wrong inverter.

this is a duplicate of my issue/feature request i believe - the integration doesnt look for multiple inverters, so picks up only the first
#6

You are correct, sorry I missed it in the bug list when I read through. Do you know if there is a way I can simply reverse the order the Integration uses to read the inverters, so that control switches to the other inverter. My guess is that the Solis order is by serial number.

having had a fiddle with the API myself, i think the integration simply reads the first number presented, but i do not have a clue how that is chosen! maybe delete the non-batery inverter and re-add, hopefully making it the 2nd inverter on the account?

Yes, I did think of that, problem is that I have had the non-battery inverter for some time and I fear if I remove it from the account and then re-attach it I will lose years worth of data from Soliscloud - something I am reluctant to do (I know I could always download in to a csv but I would prefer that option be a last resort).
