Solis battery

Batteries connected to a Solis hybrid inverter are not connected directly to the Currentt Navigator. The battery is connected to the Solis inverter and is controlled and read via the inverter.

Beta integration

Support for Solis is currently in beta. If anything does not work as expected, please contact customer support.


⚙️ How it works​

The battery communicates internally with the Solis inverter via the BMS of the battery. All battery data (such as state of charge, power and temperature) is available via the Modbus registers of the inverter. By connecting the inverter to the Currentt Navigator, you automatically also get access to the battery data and the Currentt Navigator can control the battery.


🔌 Connection options​

Connect the inverter to the Currentt Navigator using one of the methods below.

Option 1: Modbus RTU (RS-485)​

A wired connection via an RS-485 cable between the COM port of the inverter and the RS-485 Modbus connection on the Currentt Navigator. This is a direct physical connection and does not require network infrastructure.

Option 2: Modbus TCP (local network)​

A connection via the local network using the Solis DataLogger S2-WL-ST. Note: with this method the data logger loses its connection to SolisCloud.


✅ Compatible models​

Tested Solis equipment

This integration has been validated against a Solis hybrid inverter paired with a battery:

  • Hybrid inverter: Solis S6-EH3P10K (three-phase)
  • Battery: high-voltage pack reporting through the inverter's BMS

Other Solis hybrid models and battery brands may work but are not yet verified. If your installation differs or you run into issues, please contact customer support.

Important

The battery must always be connected via a compatible Solis hybrid inverter. Connecting the battery directly to the Currentt Navigator is not possible.

Power limiting works differently on Solis

On Solis, controlling the inverter power only curtails PV production once the battery is fully charged (100%). Below 100%, the excess is absorbed by the battery instead of being limited.
