[Inverter] Growatt via modbus

Driver name

growattinvertermodbus

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
