Q4 Can I use the Fronius Smart Meter?
That depends on the type of system and software configuration.
A Fronius Smart Meter can be used in these two situations:
1. when used only for reporting to Solarweb
2. when used for limiting export, in a system where the Victron system is not configured as an ESS
system.
The Fronius Smart-Meter can not be used for the Fronius built-in export limiting feature when part of a
Victron ESS system. Instead, use the Victron ESS Fronius Zero-feed in feature, see chapter 4.3.11,
Fronius Zero Feed-in, in the ESS manual.
Q5 How can I get the Fronius firmware that improves flickering?
Fronius has a special firmware available, on request, that fixes light flickering issues that occur on
certain installations under certain circumstances.
For Fronius PV inverters produced after 2018-week 16, contain the flicker-fix already straight from
production.
To update earlier and/or already installed PV Inverters, contact Fronius Tech Support for the file. The
required file is fro29130.upd. Which works for all snap-inverter models (Primo, Symo and Eco). There
is no, and will be no, fix available for Fronius Galvos.
