SMH Top Features
We’ve spent the time making sense of solar so that you don’t have to. Have a look at all the features you get with SMH!

Destkop Client
There is a completely new desktop client that runs on the Pi, where everything has a tooltip. If you don’t know what something means, simply hover your mouse over it and a popup with an explanation will appear to help you along the way.
Among the data you are used to, we have also included a field for “Battery Time to %” and “Battery Time to 100%”. If you use a compatible battery, we will calculate an approximate runtime based on the load to get to the configured % SOC (when running in battery mode).
This is brilliant for load shedding, as it will indicate when to start using electricity more sparingly in order to extend the runtime!
SMH Mobile App
We are proud to introduce the SMH Mobile app for Android and IOS, which allows you to monitor your system directly on your phone or tablet. It has built-in analytics and statistics about your system, and also include the ability to switch your system between modes like SBU and Utility, all from the palm of your hand!
It’s also the ONLY app in the world that updates in less than a second, providing 100% real-time updates directly from your system to your mobile device.
Web App
SMH comes with a beautiful web-app, designed to give you real-time values (±2 seconds update time) of what’s happening in your system. The entire app is responsive, meaning that the look and feel will automatically adjust to fit the screen its being used on.
You can even have the values from your inverter sent straight to your phone over the internet if you prefer!
Value Display
The Value Display shows the minimum and maximum values for the day, together with the most common data to draw a conclusion of how your system is performing, including the efficiency as well as a doughnut chart showing a breakdown of utility versus renewable energy.
This display takes care of the “at a glance” requirement if you want a quick overview of your solar system.
Inverter Performance
Keeping track of which inverter is doing what can be a daunting task, but with support for up to 9 inverters, SMH makes this easy. The inverter display give you the total values of all inverters together, and then takes it a step further by showing you the individual performance data for each of them, all in real-time!
Users and Roles
A user-management module is also included, allowing installers to create lesser-privileged accounts for their clients, or higher privileged accounts for other team members, further ensuring that no change happens without showing what changed, where, when and by who.
Batteries
The most important part of any solar system is the performance of the batteries. SMH therefore has an entire display dedicated to just that, where the combined performance data of all the batteries are shown at the top, with the data from each battery at the bottom.
Managing the energy in and out of your batteries has never been this easy!
Analytics
SMH also includes a very advanced analytics engine, allowing the user to see what his system performs like today versus a year ago for instance. The same is done with the batteries, showing the amount of energy in or out of them for any given day, as well as a graph depicting the state of charge versus the battery voltage.
The analytics engine also includes a cost recovery module, showing you what the system cost to put in, what your daily savings are (based on your usage), together with how long it will take to recoup the money spent on the system. You can also look at the data that make up these figures for every day, week, month or year.

Battery Discharge Rate
We have also included a field for “Battery Time to %”. If you use a compatible battery or an inverter that gives the battery values (like a Sunsynk or Deye), we will calculate approximately how long you can run on your batteries based on the current load before reaching the configured % SOC.
This is brilliant for load shedding, as it will indicate when to start using electricity more sparingly in order to extend the runtime!
