8.8.2 StecaLink master setting (MPPT 6000-M only)
NOTICE!
– The master device in a StecaLink communication network controls the flow of data to the
StecaLink slave members.
–
The StecaLink slave members must be registered at the master device. Configuration of the
slaves must be performed at the master, depending on the type and functional scope of
each respective slave.
– See
Ä
Chapter 6.6 ‘StecaLink master connection (MPPT 6000-M only)’ on page 48 for
cabling information.
