  • You need to have a USB type C phone charger to supply power
  • Take care to only connect one power source

The DeyeSolarDesktop will give you a plug-and-play starting point to monitor your solar system https://github.com/tomatensaus/DeyeSolarDesktop

 

**Note: When powering directly from the inverter 12V supply please observe the correct polarity. The SmartDeyeDongle can take input from 5.5-36V DC.

The 8kW inverter supplies + 11, and – 12 on the function port (positive on pin 11 and negative on pin 12) on the new generation this is (RSD  Positive 17 , Negative 18)

The 16kW inverter supplies RSD_out 12V on pin +15 & – 16 on the function port

The 12kW inverter supplies RSD_out 12V on pin +7 & – 8 on the function port (On the right)

The 3/5/6 kW documentation makes no mention of any 12V output, use an old phone USB C . Alternatively an old router power supply on the Dongle input takes 5.5V-36V
