* Level: 2 - This should be everything your inverter supports
* Level: 3 - This will try every register, you will get lots of 0/65535 responses for registers not supported.
* smart_meter: True - Set to true if you have a smart reader installed, this will return power usage at the meter box, without it you can not calculate house power usage.
* smart_meter: True - (_Only needed for SG* Models_) Set to true if you have a smart meter installed, this will return power usage at the meter box, without it you can not calculate house power usage. Hybrid inverters will provide this by default (load_power_hybrid)
