Second inverter integration with Hime assistant

I’ve just had my second inverter installed which should now mean that I can charge my batteries to 100%. My installer tells me that it has been installed as a slave to the primary inverter ( it is exactly the same as the first inverter giving me 12 kw of charging capacity) . Does this mean I don’t need to integrate this second inverter with home assistant separately? And the home assistant automations should still run but for both inverters ? Thanks for the help on this

I’m not entirely sure on the parallel operation, Will would be better answering that question, in principle if one is told to force charge I would expect both to follow - but if you want to see independent sensors for each inverter, the statistics, charge/discharge etc.. you’ll need to have both inverters being monitored by home assistant via modbus.

It didn’t seem to work but am not sure that this was an errror or whether my installer has got the settings wrong - I do know that my installer has set up a schedule without telling me and that has messed up my home assistant and am now back to trying to fix the fragile work scheduler.
I don’t presently have a stable environment to test the two inverters but do still want to try and integrate both and control them with HA rather than the fox app
