Physical connection to the Inverter
Posted: Wed Jan 04, 2023 11:23 am
Hi, I've just got my PV system installed yesterday (after 9 months wait!!), and I'm already desperate for more stats now the sun has come out today!
I've been looking at the various methods, and I'm a little reluctant to use LAN as it seems a firmware update could very likely break it.
So looking at wiring in the modbus, I'm just wondering how youve actually made the physical connection. Have you bought a connector and soldered wires to it, or have you just jabbed wires into the holes?! I haven't had a chance to get in the loft and look at whats there, but from my understanding there is already something using the COM port, so how to I make my connections alongside it?
Thanks
Nik
