Note:
The RS485 communication bus must be terminated at both cable ends.
Note:
The two network types cannot be mixed. The inverters can only be connected in networks
which are either solely RS485 or solely Ethernet.
Note:
Each inverter has a unique RS485 address when it is delivered. This address is defined at the
time of production.
Note:
Ethernet connection is recommended for faster communication.
RS485 connection is required when a web logger or data logger is connected to the inverter.
