Additional Connection Options

To configure the RS485 communication bus:
All inverters are configured by default as slaves. If r econfiguration is required:
1. Turn ON the Safety Switch.
2. Make sure the ON/OFF switch is OFF.
3. Turn ON the AC to the inverter by turning ON the circuit breaker on the main distribution panel.
WARNING!
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. Do not touch uninsulated wires when the inverter cover is removed.
RISQUE D'ÉLECTROCUTION, ne touchez pas les fils non isolés lorsque le couvercle de l'onduleur est
retiré.
4. Use the internal buttons to configure the connection (slightly touch the black square buttons). To set
the inverter designated as master, select the following in the LCD menus:
Communication è Server è LAN, Z igBee, or CDMA
l
RS485-1 Conf. è Device Type è SolarEdge
l
RS485-1 Conf. è Protocol è Master
l
RS485-1 Conf. è Slave Detect
l
The system starts automatic detection of the SolarEdge slave inverters connected to the master
inverter. The inverter should report the correct number of slaves. If it does not, verify the connections
and terminations.
5. Verify the connection of the master to the SolarEdge monitoring portal, as described in Verifying the
Connection below.
Additional Connection Options

Creating a Wireless ZigBee Connection

This communication option enables using a ZigBee connection to connect one or several devices to the
SolarEdge monitoring portal.
The ZigBee device is provided with a user manual, which should be reviewed prior to
connection. It is available on the SolarEdge website at
http://www.solaredge.us/groups/us/products/communication ( under ZigBee).

Creating a Cellular Connection

This communication option enables using a cellular CDMA connection for connecting the
device to the SolarEdge monitoring portal.
The cellular kit can be purchased separately and assembled during system installation.
The kit is provided with a user manual, which should be reviewed prior to connection. It
is available on the SolarEdge website at
http://www.solaredge.us/groups/us/products/communication (under Cellular).

Verifying the Connection

After connecting and configuring a communication option, perform the following steps to check that
the connection to the monitoring server has been successfully established.
1. Close the inverter cover: Attach the inverter cover and secure it by tightening the screws with a
torque of 9.0 N*m/ 6.6 lb.*ft. For proper sealing, first tighten the corner screws and then the two
central screws.
