RS485 Communication with Danfoss TLX solar inverter and REST server

I use it for Home Assistant integration where each parameter/value can be read as a sensor.

See DanfossTLX-RS485.h for parameters

sensor:
  # Danfoss TLX
  # Energy
  - platform: rest
    resource: http://[IP-Address]/TotalE
    name: "TLX Total Energy Production"
    method: GET
    value_template: "{{ value_json.value |round(3)}}"
    unit_of_measurement: kWh
    device_class: 'energy'
    state_class: total_increasing

But since HA would fire request for all entities almost at the same time it could'nt keep up and some would end up unavailable. So instead of having each value returned in a seperat call i've added them all in stame same json return. See configuration.yaml for all rest sensors

rest:
  - resource: http://[IP-Address]/All
    sensor:
      # Info
      - name: "TLX Operation Mode"
        value_template: "{{ value_json.OpMode }}"
      - name: "TLX Operation Mode Text"
        value_template: "{{ value_json.OpModeTxt }}"
      - name: "TLX Product Number"
        value_template: "{{ value_json.Product }}"
      - name: "TLX Serial" 
       value_template: "{{ value_json.Serial }}"        
      # Produkction Energy
      - name: "TLX Total Energy Production"
        value_template: "{{ value_json.TotalE |round(3)}}"
        unit_of_measurement: kWh
        device_class: 'energy'
        state_class: total_increasing
        ...
        ...
