Scenario with a Smart Array Controller Huawei smart array controller, also a communication box, is an outdoor cabinet that controls the communication of the PV array in a PV plant. The cabinet can house the SmartLogger, ATB, POE module, and POE SPD. Page 23 1000 V and a cross-sectional area of 10 mm for each core wire. Connect this cable only.

Often, one communication port is occupied by the Smart PV Inverters, the other one by a Power Meter and perhaps we are in the situation when only one communication port is available.

If we want to connect many EMI devices (Eg. pyranometers) and only one RS485 communication port is available is important to know that we can connect all these devices on the same COM Port. A maximum of 5 devices can be connect through this method.

Find below all the conditions that should be accomplished in order to succeed with this operation:

Step 1

Be sure that all devices have different addresses - usually, EMI comes by default with '1' as address. In order to connect many devices on the same communication port, this address should be different for all devices. Otherwise we would face a conflict address. If you are in the purchasing step please tell the EMI's provider that you need different addresses for all these devices. If you have already purchased these devices, contact their provider and ask about the address change tool;

Step 2

Be sure that all devices have the same baud rate - usually, baud rate for EMI devices is 19200;
