For the hybrid inverter to establish communications with the
power meters through its RS-485 port, the address of the
RS-485 port inside the power meter must be changed from its
default setting of “0075” to:
•
0001
for power meter 1;
•
0002
for power meter 2.
The process for setting the communications parameters
is the same for both power meters, with the exception of
their assigned addresses. Enter the programming mode as
described:
1. Power up the meter and irrespective of the
measurement message displayed (see display
example) keep pressing the navigation keys and
for more than three seconds until the word “Code ”
appears on the LCD display.

installation diagrams
Once the electrical installation has been carried out, the
power meter must be properly configured in order to ensure
the activation of the correct measuring mode and the correct
communications flow to the xStorage Home system, i.e. to
its hybrid inverter unit. The following illustrations explain the
communication configuration for the power meters, i.e. for
power meter 1 and power meter 2, whose purpose is explained
in the xStorage Home installation manual. Please be sure that
power meter 2 is installed on the same phase of the xStorage
Home and the existing PV inverter.
