No data from SMA Tripower X 15-50

Dear Colleagus,

We have a PV system with a PV inverter SMA X15-50 + Cerbo and RS450/200 + inverters Multiplus.

We follow all instruction and we test all according to the manuals.

Ping over LAN - is OK

PuTTY connection port 22 ot Cerbo - OK

telnet connection from Cerbo to SMA port 502 - SMA return connected.

The Cerbo can not find SMA inverter automatically and manual. No data no info.

We test with Cerbo firmware 3.10-8 from yesterday 11-June-23 and no changes.

So ideas?

With kind regards.

Galin

Following the information form one SMA dealer, the new SMA inverters are with the new TCP modbus standard and Victron MUST change their prototol so read the data from SMA and other brands.

E WHEN Victron will do this???????

Hello,

I have the same problems with this " SMA Inverter detection from Victron ".

We had to upgrade an already built installation with a SMA grid inverter by adding batteries and Victron devices.

Since both companies are members of at least SunSpec, our expectations are that there IS communication!!?

I have an installation coming up soon with a KOSTAL grid inverter (another SunSpec member).

when should we expect development?

Hi All,

We have just released a new version of Venus 3.14 for GX devices which expands support for SMA PV inverters, and others that use Sunspec data-models in the 700 series (IEEE1547) - https://professional.victronenergy.com/news/detail/235/

For me is still not working neither with 3.14 firmware neither with 3.20~43 beta firmware. (SMA Tripower 10.0 SE with latest firmware. Worked before updating the SMA to the latest MODBUS protocol.
