After some test and the infinite patience of mr kincony I managed to get the rs485 to work totally with the a24 via the rs485 port (model 80a). At power up the device says the address in my case 222 which in the hex code is address: 0xDE (I will attach the yaml anyway).
Things to keep in mind, the physical device shows in KW so for testing it is possible that it will show 0 if it has little W. Do the test with a hairdryer or something that consumes a lot of power. Remember that it is for the board so I doubt that you have less than 150w base consumption in a home.
I would like to ask mr kincony a question. Is it possible to change the power from KW to W? This would allow me to show more clearly the values in H.A. This could be done by connecting it to the rs485 via a usb cable? It would be great if we had the option. @admin
Another issue is that if you want to show it in the energy dashboard you have to put state class and device class (it goes in the yaml).
Well I hope you all can use it and thanks again to the forum for the help.
