Driver name

Compatible devices
Growatt xx00-S series inverters
Growatt MIC xxTL-X series inverters
Tested devices
Growatt 1000-S
Growatt MIC 1500TL-X
Remarks
These Growatt inverters have a too high startup voltagen for usage with a low voltage battery system, so this driver is intented for usage in a solar plant without battery.
The RS-485 add-on board is necessary to connect the inverter.
When the slave IDs are set correctly, multiple inverters can be connected to one add-on board channel. But since the inverters are not fully compatible to the modbus RTU specification, mixing them with other devices might not work.
Installation steps
configure the slave ID of the inverter, see your device manual for more information
connect the inverter to the RS-485 add-on board
edit the configuration as documented in driver configuration
