Mastervolt Sunmaster XS3200 monitoring devices

[Ian B]

Can any of you guys help on this please?

We have one of the above that was installed as the quoted Power One inverter wasn't available, however the Power One should have had their Bluetooth Graphic Display included.

Is there something similar for the XS3200, or alternatively is there a way to connect the XS to a wired (PC) network, and then use a PC elsewhere on the network to display the info from the XS?

you probably need an rs485 to ethernet converter although you could just buy a long masterbus cable and plug it in. it is all possible but you need to play around getting the com port working.

Thanks, but I assume it would need some kind of web server?

Do you know whether there is a standalone monitor unit like the Power One Graphic Display, that would work with the Mastervolt XS?

Well if you wanted to connect it to a pc you only need to run the software supplied and use an ethernet to 485 converter. I take it you want it on all the time? I would just plug the pv system into a wattson solar or similar. Mastervolt aren't really that up to date with the software side as they have just stuck to the one range that works for them, apparently there is a new inverter they are bringing out with a cat5 out from it which should be interesting.

You could just install the Mastervolt Sunwatch
