EZMonitor

EZMonitor is an efficient KDE Plasma 6 applet designed to interface with APsystems EZ1 microinverters, providing users with real-time monitoring of solar panel performance. This tool connects directly to the local JSON API offered by the inverter, ensuring that all data is processed and displayed locally without reliance on cloud services or third-party backends.

Key Features:

• Real-Time Monitoring: Displays live power output in watts from each solar panel.
• Daily Yield Tracking: Keeps track of the total energy generated in kilowatt-hours (kWh).
• Frequent Updates: Data is refreshed every 10 seconds for up-to-date insights.
• Lightweight Design: Built with pure QML, eliminating the need for additional C++ or Python dependencies.
• User-Friendly Interface: Clean and elegant UI optimized for a seamless monitoring experience.
• Standardized API Use: Utilizes the APsystems EZ1 API Manual for straightforward integration.
