4. Multiple Energy Meters in one system

There are 3 options to connect multiple Energy Meters:
1.
Each wired to a separate RS485-USB converter. Which are then each plugged into a separate
USB socket on the CCGX.
2.
Multiple Meters wired on to one RS485-USB converter. In this case the modbus address of the
additional meters needs to be changed, so each is unique. See chapter 5.
3.
Wireless connection: the additional Meters are each connected to additional Zigbee to RS485
converters. There is then no second Zigbee to USB interface required. It is necessary to change
of the modbus address of one of the AC sensors, see chapter 5.
Besides adding an extra sensor, it is also possible, in a single phase installation, to use the, unused,
second phase to measure the output of the PV Inverter. See see the AC Wiring chapter in this manual.
