ello Victron Community,

I’m working with a Fronius Eco inverter (light version) which was supplied without the integrated Datamanager. I understand that this model has an RJ45 port that is typically used for Fronius-to-Fronius communication (for example, in master-slave setups).

My question is:
Can this RJ45 port be used to connect the Fronius inverter directly to a Victron GX device (e.g., Cerbo GX) over Ethernet, for Modbus TCP or PV Inverter integration, even though the inverter lacks the Datamanager?

Alternatively, would I need to install an external Datamanager (e.g., Datamanager 2.0) to enable communication between the Fronius and Victron systems?

You do need the Datamanager 2.0, you can either retrofit the plug in card version or use the external box.
