Connect and configure Deye/SunSynk/Sol-Ark inverters

Overview

Follow the steps below to connect the following inverters to SolarAssistant:

• SunSynk
• Deye
• Sol-Ark
• Turbo Energy

Step 1 - Select inverter

On the configuration page, select "SunSynk, Deye, Sol-Ark" as your inverter model.

Step 2 - Select connection interface

Select the USB port where your inverter is connected. If you have multiple inverters, you need to multi-select all of them.

USB to WiFi/RS232

A USB serial cable can be plugged into WiFi RS232 port located on the bottom of the inverter. This is a normal USB serial cable available from most electronic stores.

USB to RS485

A USB to RS485 cable can be plugged into the RS485 port located on the inside the inverter. This is an RS485 cable with a specific RJ45 pinout that can be purchased in our online store.

Deye/SunSynk/Turbo Energy 5K

Deye/SunSynk 8K

Deye/SunSynk 12k 3 phase

Sol-Ark 8k

Sol-Ark 12k

Sol-Ark 12k Outdoor

On the 12k outdoor model the port labelled as CAN is both a CAN and RS485 port by containing the pins for both. This is the correct port to connect SolarAssistant to. The RS485 to the left of the CAN port will not work. If your CAN port is already used to read a battery via CAN, then you can use an RJ45 splitter to split the port into two. When it's split into two, you can use the CAN pins in one port and the RS485 pins in the other. Note the splitter should simply connect the pins of the ports, it should not be an ethernet switch.
