Release v3.0.1

This release updates an internal constant to use the UnitOfReactivePower class that was introduced in HA 2024.9.0. There are no new features or bug fixes in this release.

If you are using a v2.x.x release please read the release notes for v3.0.0 before updating.

Minimum required Home Assistant version for this release is 2024.9.0.

What's Changed

Release v3.0.0

Release v3.0.0 is a major update which adds the ability to configure a list of modbus device IDs to support sequential and non-sequential ID configurations, or a combination of both. If you're upgrading your inverter settings will be migrated to the new Device ID List configuration. v3.0.0 and future releases can't be downgraded to a v2.x.x release.

List: 1,2,3,4 or 1,3,10
Range: 1-4 becomes list 1,2,3,4
Combination: 1-3,5,10 becomes list 1,2,3,5,10

Entity naming for meters and batteries will now include the inverter Device ID in the name by default for new hubs or new devices. Existing entities will remain unchanged. Some entities had units removed from the default entity name. These changes may require updates to templates.

The Auto-Detect Additional Entities option will now be disabled by default. If you remove or re-add the hub or integration, the new default is disabled. Upgrades will maintain existing settings. See #653 for details.

Thanks to @thargy for functions to handle inverter device ID lists.

Release v3.0.0-pre.2

IMPORTANT: v3.0.0 is not backwards compatible. Back up your Home Assistant Core configuration if you need to downgrade to a 2.x.x release. Installing this pre-release will migrate the integration config to the new inverter ID list.
