With the nodes sunposition and within-time I can detect in the morning when the altitude == 15 degrees and write down the time (with simpletime) to the dashboard.

My problem is that at this time I also want to get the azimuth to show in the dashboard.

How can I solve this?

Then I do the same in the afternoon und get the angle and duration of the sun when its shining on the PV System.

Regards Erwin

It has been some time since I have used the node-red-contrib-sun-position node, but I believe that it gives both elevation and azimuth information.
