Connect and configure Megarevo inverters

Overview

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

  • Megarevo
  • Amensolar NHX range
  • INVT Megarevo range
  • Vestwoods 8KW R8KL1NA

Step 1 - Connect inverter via RS485

A custom cable needs to be created for the COM port of this inverter. It's the same port that the WiFi dongle/logger reads the inverter data from. SolarAssistant and the WiFi dongle/logger can not be used at the same time.

Wire our uncrimped RS485 cable into your inverter according to the diagram below. Only RS485A and RS485B need to be connected. Ground can optionally be connected although it's not required.

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