Provides a configuration, control and management connection to a
locally connected PC or laptop, or to an external modem for
connection to the SolarEdge Monitoring Portal. You may refer to
the
Creating an RS232 (UART) Connection
section on page 52
for
a description of how to set up this communication option to the
SolarEdge Monitoring server.
You may refer to the
SolarEdge Monitoring Portal User Guide
for
more information about the monitoring capacities.
Other Communication Options (Ethernet (LAN), RS485 or
ZigBee):
Three other types of communication options can be used to
connect the inverter to the SolarEdge Monitoring Portal. They are

To connect AC wires to internal Three Phase Inverter
terminals:
1
Turn OFF the AC on the AC wires to be connected to the inverter by
disconnecting the circuit breakers on the main circuit board.
2
Turn off the ON/OFF switch at the bottom of the inverter.
3
Turn off the DC switch on the main circuit board, if one exists.
