Linking various IMT Si-RS485 series solar irradiance sensors to a single Victron GX device is feasible.
Nevertheless, it’s important to allocate a distinct Victron RS485 to USB interface for each sensor, as combining multiple units on a single interface is incompatible with the Venus OS software.
Configuration Details:
Generally, no special adjustments are necessary. The sensors are shipped with a default configuration that’s already set for integration with a Victron GX device.
However, if the IMT Si-RS485 series solar irradiance sensor has been previously modified or used with another system, reverting to the original settings is crucial. Utilize the IMT ‘Si-MODBUS-Configuration software tool’ for this purpose.
Consult the ‘Si Modbus Configurator Documentation’ for detailed guidance and ensure the following settings are correct:
- MODBUS Address: 1
- Baud Rate: 9600
- Data Format: 8N1 (10 Bit)
For any additional assistance or queries regarding the setup of the IMT Si-RS485 Series irradiance sensors, reaching out directly to IMT Solar is recommended.
