Connecting Cerbo GX to read two Phoenix 3000 inverters

I have a situation where we have two Phoenix 3000 inverters in the system. Can one Cerbo/ GX70 display input and output AC loads from both units combined? If so what would I need to set this up and would the inverters require additional set up.

Any info appreciated

Thx

Only if they are configured in parallel. If they are in parallel, they will show as one big inverter.


If they are completely separate systems, they each need their own GX.

Thanks for your reply. I believe that they may be in parallel as there is only one remote panel controlling both of them. Ill set it up and see if it reads them as one.

Are they connected via an ethernet cable between their VE.Bus ports? If so, they are in parallel. If there is no data cable between them, they are not.
