Integration of the Solis inverter with Trydan

The Trydan e-Charger is compatible with the entire range of Solis inverters. The Solis inverters are installed via RS485 Modbus communication. The connection has to be made by cable directly to the inverter and cannot be made without the inverter (via WiFi), which makes the configuration more stable.

Steps for cable connection to the Solis inverter

For RS485 Modbus communication to be possible in this case, a special connector provided by the manufacturer/distributor and a UTP cable are used. Both cables shall be connected according to the diagram in step 2 and the one connected to the Trydan e-Charger shall have a RJ-45 connector correctly crimped according to the diagram shown in step 4.

First of all, connect the cable shown in the following image included in the product to the port (COM CABLE) of the inverter. If it is not included, ask the distributor for RS485 Modbus communication.

The special connector has two wires belonging to RS485-A (yellow colour) which will be connected to pin 5 of the RJ-45 and the RS485-B (blue colour) which will be connected to pin 4 of the RJ-45.

Once connected to the inverter, it sends a two-wire feed to the recharge point. To achieve this, it is recommended to use a UTP cable terminated with an RJ-45 connector, only one pair of wires is required to minimise losses and facilitate the connection. The crimping of the RJ-45 connector should be done according to the diagram below: pin 4 (blue wire – RJ-45 Trydan) is connected to pin B (blue wire – special connector), and pin 5 (white/blue wire – RJ-45 Trydan) is connected to pin A (yellow wire – special connector).

The RJ-45 connector must be connected to Trydan via the RS485 input on the cover.

Solis inverter configuration in the V2C Cloud App

Access the V2C Cloud application, choose the charging point and access the configuration section.

Go to Dynamic Power Control and choose ‘inverter’ in the device type tab. Select Solis in the ‘inverter type’ section and the appropriate installation in each situation.

It is essential to save the configuration to ensure the correct operation of the dynamic power control.

Once properly configured, you can customise it according to the specific requirements of each situation.
