EnergyBridge Adapter
EnergyBridge integrates energy devices into ioBroker using templates (Category → Manufacturer → Template).
Supported transports (depends on the selected template): Modbus TCP/RTU/ASCII, MQTT, HTTP/JSON, UDP, M‑Bus, Speedwire, 1‑Wire.
Community edition scope: Industrial/utility templates are intentionally excluded (for example TESVOLT, SMA Core1 / STP125, Alpitronic DC fast chargers, and industrial I/O modules).
For a German version of this documentation, see README.de.md.

Requirements
- Node.js >= 20
- ioBroker js-controller >= 6.0.11
- ioBroker admin >= 7.6.20
- Network access to the devices (IP/port, and Modbus Unit ID if applicable)
Setup
- Install the adapter via the ioBroker adapter list.
- Create an instance and open its configuration in Admin UI.
- In the General tab, adjust polling interval/timeouts as required.
- In the Devices tab, add devices using the template wizard (Category → Manufacturer → Template).
- Optionally use Import/Export to back up or migrate your device list.
Notes
- Write access is optional and depends on the selected template.
- The adapter automatically creates the required objects/states in ioBroker.
It uses the libraries modbus-serial, mqtt and axios to communicate with devices.
