read data from mastervolt

[JensBitt]

Hello
Is it possible to read data from a mastervolt inverter?
Does anyone have experience with it?

Hi,
I think you should be able to retrieve data from it. What is your model ?

Hello Jean Marc
the inverter model mastervolt xs6500
I have create an connection cable. Read from a windows computer works fine.
Now i want to run a raspberry pi to read the inverter data.
Can you help me? Can i use available scripts?

[jeanmarc]

I won't write a communication app but i guess you can do it with the link provided. Once you are able to get data from it, i can surely help to write the protocols files (easy task )

[jeanmarc]

i'am not sure it work with mastervolt but also take a look at Solget
