Appendix Select Settings > ParallelSetting > Mode Select > Enable to activate the function for all the inverters. Please disable this function if not needed. >Mode Select >M/S Select Enable Parallel Power Select Master / Slave for the inverters in the system. Only one inverter in the same system can be selected as Master.
Appendix 15.1.3 Parallel System with DataHub In the parallel system with DataHub, at most 60 inverters can be connected. The DataHub will be the master of the system, and all the inverters are the slaves. The DataHub can communicate with all the slave inverters. Parallel Connection Diagram Inverter Inverter...

Appendix 15.2 Application of EV-Charger 15.2.1 Introduction of EV-Charger Application The EV-Charger is intended for charging electric vehicles. It should be installed in a fixed location and connected to the AC supply. The EV-Charger can communicate with other devices or systems (inverter, meter, CT, third-party charger management platform, etc.) to realize intelligent control of charging process.
Appendix • Connection steps a) Plug one end of the communication cable to the right pin of the EV-Charger and the other end to PIN a & b or c & d of the RS485 terminal of the series inverter. Figure 15-5 Connecting to EV-Charger b) Connect the meter to PIN e &...
Appendix 15.3 Application of Adapter Box G2 15.3.1 Introduction of Adapter Box G2 Application With the SolaX Adapter Box G2, users can effectively utilize solar energy by commanding it to power their heat pump using settings available on the SolaX inverter and SolaXCloud. This intelligent integration allows for optimized solar self-consumption and ultimately helps in reducing electricity bills.
