RS485 port

A purpose built USB 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.

If you buy any random USB RS485 RJ45 cable on Amazon, Ebay, Takealot, etc. which doesn't specifically state that it supports the Deye inverter, it will most likely not work.

The labelling of the RS485 monitoring port is sometimes not intuitive. Please see the list below for the correct port.

The BMS port is used for SolarAssistant monitoring and battery CAN communication at the same time. See the 2 in 1 BMS port

Steps in SolarAssistant

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

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

Parallel installations

With these inverters you will need to connect each inverter with its own cable.
