Chapter 6: Setting Up Communication to the
Monitoring Platform
The inverter sends the following information to the monitoring platform:
Power optimiser information received via the DC power lines (the PV output circuit)
Inverter information
Information of any other connected devices
Car charging information
This chapter describes how to set up communication between:
The inverter and the monitoring platform through the Internet (wired/ wireless)
Multiple inverters for a master/slave configuration
Communication setup is not required for power harvesting, however it is needed for
using the monitoring platform and for first time charging and activating the cable.
NOTE
It is recommended to connect communication connections before
connecting the AC, for easier access to the communication board.
CAUTION!
Communication Options
The following types of communication can be used to transfer the monitored
information from the inverter to the monitoring platform.
Only communication products offered by SolarEdge are supported.
