4.4 Communication Connection The monitoring module could transmit the data to the cloud server, and display the data on the PC, tablet and smart-phone. Install the WIFI / Ethernet / GPRS / RS485 Communication WIFI / Ethernet / GPRS / RS485 communication is applicable to the inverter. Please refer to "Communication Configuration Instruction"...
4.5 Zero-injection Smart Meter (Optional) Smart meter is an intelligent control equipment which is used for on-grid inverters. Its main function is to measure the forward and reverse power on the grid-connected side, and transmit data to the inverter through RS485 communication to ensure that the power of the inverter is less than or equal to the user's home load, and no current flows into the grid.
