Sofar#

Configuring a Sofar inverter with GbbOptimizer. The Sofar inverter is controlled in Passive Mode.

GbbOptimizer mode mapping to Sofar settings (Passive Mode)#

The program sets StorageMode = 3 (Passive Mode) and (when supporting 5 parameters) ManagementMode = 1 (Manual).

If the option “SofarSolar: Support for 5 parameters (not 3) in PassiveMode” is unchecked, the Gdzup and Gdzlo parameters are not changed (because they are not available in 3-parameter mode).
