As in the subject. Supposedly all my inverters (Deye Sun-3k-g, EASUN SMH-ii 7k, MPP 4.2 kw hybrid inverter) as well as all my Heltec black(rebadged JK) BMSes support RS-485 (modbus?).
There are various open source projects that talk to these devices when connected point to point (between a computer and a device).
My question here is, can they all be put on a single rs-485 bus? Or do I need 6 rs-485 interfaces to talk to them all at the same time?
This is supposed to be used by a small pc (or a raspberry pi) with custom logic to switch settings on inverters (source priority, charging/dc cutoff voltages, max charging amps) depending on time of day/year and various other things. Essentially I'm trying to build a fully automated off-grid-with-grid-support and on-grid elements system.
