[QUOTE="denmancentral, post: 542452, member: 36023"] According to that diagram, the Solax inverter needs to monitor both the grid import/export and the other inverter, so it knows when to charge and discharge the battery. They are proposing to use 2 of those CHINT meters with a RS-485 bus (parallel connection). So assign a Modbus address of 1 to one meter and address 2 to the other. Presumably in the inverter settings, it wants to know the address of the two meters so it can tell which signal is which. The signals won't get mixed up if you do that correctly. [/QUOTE]
