Almost any documentation for Venus refer to “AC input 1; AC input 2; AC output” while there are 2 outputs and 1 input on MP2 documentation.
(Actually they are all input & outputs so is annoying to remain incorrect naming.)
According to my expectation above and documentation from here I would expect to configure my inverter to be connected to “0=AC input 1”.
If I do that, the inverter appears on connector 1 instead of 2.
To cover all basics and equipment, the Venus OS should take into consideration (at least) 2 inputs and 2 outputs.
2 outputs are on almost all devices, while 2 inputs are only on the Quattro range.
I guess i view it differently.
Physical counting in the real world starts at 1. Since you can’t have zero of something
In the software world the physical rules are not the same. We start at 0.
And since the output of the inverter is really the point of the inverter, that would be the start connection? (As it is the foremost reason the device exists.) all other connections are optional.
There is no question about start from 0 or 1.
I’ve labeled 1,2,3 and A, B, C. My issue is that’s not clear to me what you mean by “Input” and “Output” as connectors can be input or an output, depending on use case.
So what you mean by “AC input 1” A, B, or C? From the behavior it must be C, but from my assignment above it must be 2.
True, they are bidirectional, but in its base state before programming there is an in and out.
Even though now scripts or other programming change their use, there has to be a start state. The labels reflect them as such.
You are thinking like a programmer not an electrician. These labels are for the physical/electrical world.
Electrically the grid (or generator) is connected to ac input 1 as it would be the source input. C or 1.
Your correlation was correct.
That would mean was wrong, I need to configure my inverter to Position “1=AC output” (A or 2). Doing that the drawing looks as expected. However, now the calculation does not work anymore but that another topic.
