ET112 and Multiplus 2 GX

Just about to install a Multiples 2 GX and planning on installing it in parallel. I already have a grid tied inverter and want to limit my feed it to the grid.

Planning on installing a ET112 meter and wondered if this can be plugged straight into the multiplus as its a GX model, rather than going via a cerboGX?

Multiplus-II

Hi


Correct plugs into the USB port with an RS485 to USB adaptor.

Hi Team,

I'm currently buying MP 2 GX.

Is there a way to connect 2x ET112 to MP 2GX?
