Setting battery charge/discharge profile

[nerfherder]

It is possible to control battery charge and discharge profiles by setting values to modbus register 63242 provided register 63236 is set to remote control.

I have set this up using the default modbus integration in hassio but this would be better setup as a default control in this integration.

The registers and settings are defined in https://www.photovoltaikforum.com/core/attachment/88445-power-control-open-protocol-for-solaredge-inverters-pdf/

Nice - I haven't seen the Solaredge documentation but that should help me fine tune my PR #35 - although my LG battery does not seem to exactly fit the documented register behaviours.

It would be awesome to add support for changing the storage mode - we probably just have to add a service that can be called to switch it by writing the appropriate registers. I'm certainly keen to do this myself as I have a problem right now with the inverter dumping the battery charge into the EV when it starts charging during hours of cheap import. If I could have HA switch the profile automatically, then I can hold on to the battery charge for when the import rate is expensive again.

Yeah it's very handy to be able to change. I am using it for an LG Chem resu10h battery.

Currently I just write to register 63242 in an automation based on a input_select field.

My automation yaml for that is below

@nerfherder Thanks for the link to the documentation! I've used it to implement control of my battery's charge / discharge profile :-) I now have control!

Implemented in #38
