Connecting Lumel ND30IoT to EkranoGX

Hello.
I am trying to connect the Lumel ND30IoT network analyzer as a grid meter to the system managed by EkranoGX. ND30 supports Modbus TCP. Communication set to port 502 and address to 1. Unfortunately, Ekrano does not detect the analyzer. Has anyone connected Lumel to Ekrano before?

@michal.tylki These are the Victron supported grid meters and Lumel is not one of them. Maybe the modifications space is a better fit for this question.

Supporting a standard protocol does not mean that it will automatically work, it needs support in the GX which is not present.

Moving to modifications.

Hi @michal.tylki

Modifying this for your meter might work or at least be a good starting point:
