    SolarEdgeConnection problems may occur when using inverter firmware versions 004.019 and 004.020.  We are currently investigating this problem. The use of an external meter to record the inverter power is recommended. See Incompatible inverters

    Incompatible inverters

    For inverters not directly supported by the Manager, the power must be recorded via separate power meters or energy meters. Depending on Manager hardware used, different types of meters can be used for performance recording.

    There are also differences in the number of meters that can be configured as generation meters.

    S0 meters

    S0 meters are electrical energy meters that transmit their meter readings via electrical pulses.

    Meters that deliver pulses in accordance with EN62053-31 can be connected to the Manager by connecting them directly to the S0 inputs of the SOLARWATT Manager unit.
