Connect and configure Growatt MIC/MID/MOD/MAC inverters
Support for Growatt MIC/MID/MOD/MAC inverters is currently only available in the
latest beta version of
SolarAssistant.
Overview
Follow the the steps below to connect one of the following inverters to SolarAssistant:
- Growatt MIC/MID/MOD/MAC TL/X
Step 1 - Connect inverter monitoring cable
The USB port on the inverter can not be used for monitoring. You need to connect it via a RS485 cable by screwing the RS485A and RS485B wire into pin 3 and 4 of the communication port. Each inverter will require it's own USB cable.
You can also explore alternative RS485 adapters that might be available locally in your country.


Step 2 - Configure SolarAssistant to connect to a Growatt MIC/MID/MOD inverter
On the configuration page, select "Growatt" as your inverter model.

Each RS485 USB cable will show up as a USB device. Select all ports that are connected to Growatt inverters and press "Connect".
