Created by Quan Dang, Modified on Wed, 6 Nov, 2019 at 11:11 AM by Quan Dang

RS485 Connection:


  • Yes with 2 RS485 ports for Master-slave configuration


  • RS485 is used for the connection of multiple SolarEdge devices on the same bus in a master-slave configuration. RS485 can also be used as an interface to external devices, such as meters and third party data loggers.

  • RS485-1: Enables the connection of multiple devices (inverters/Commercial Gateway) over the same bus, such that connecting only one device to the Internet is sufficient to provide communication services for all the devices on the bus.

  • RS485-2: Enables the connection of multiple SolarEdge devices and of nonSolarEdge devices over the same bus.


Ethernet Connection:

  • Yes

  • Direct connection to the router, the maximum distance between the inverter and the router – 100 m


WLAN connection:

  • Yes, 

  • wifi card built-in but need to order an antenna kit separately. 


Cellular (GSM, CDMA) connection:

  • Yes, 

  • Need to order GSM/CDMA Plug-in separately


Zigbee connection:

  • Yes, 

  • In 3-phases SetApp inverters, ZigBee card built-in but need to order an antenna kit separately. 

  • In 1-phase SetApp inverters, both ZigBee card and an antenna kit must be ordered. 


Note:

  • Communication built-in board 1-phase inverter setapp 

  • Communication built-in board 3-phases inverter setapp
