Compatibility · Ready for GridZeno

Solplanet hybrid with GridZeno.

Through the Ai-Logger, GridZeno shows the solar production and lowers the inverter's output at negative prices. The battery can only be read and controlled with the dongle connected directly to the inverter. Applies to ASW H-S2, H-T2, H-T3, H-T2/T3-DG, SH and TH with Ai-Logger.

Solplanet hybrid on the compatibility list, updated 31 October 2026.

  • Live overview of solar, consumption and gridAll subscriptions · Grid and consumption only with an Ai-Logger from version 006R. An older logger only gives the solar production.

  • Stop selling at negative pricesSmart and Pro · Requires the installer to have turned export limiting on in the inverter. GridZeno only lowers a limit that's already set. Solplanet's limit applies to the inverter's whole output, not just the export. With an older Ai-Logger, the logger's own limit is used, which applies to all inverters on the logger.

02

How the inverter is controlled

Through the Ai-Logger, GridZeno can read the inverter and limit its output, but not control the battery.

The battery
The Ai-Logger gives no access to the battery. If you want the battery controlled, the dongle must be connected directly to the inverter with an RS485 cable.
Stop selling at negative prices
The inverter's output is set quarter by quarter by the selling price, but only where the installer has turned the limit on. Solplanet's limit applies to the inverter's whole output, not just the sale to the grid. The dongle sets the installer's value back afterwards.
Older Ai-Logger
Here the dongle uses the logger's own limit. It applies to all inverters on the logger, and grid and consumption aren't shown.
Manual
When the control is on Manual, the dongle changes nothing on the inverter. It reads, and if GridZeno has changed something, it puts the inverter's own settings back, including your own charge limits.
03

What is special about the Solplanet hybrid

The model name in input 1018-1025 starts with ASW or SOL, and the model code 11-16 in 31073 is a hybrid.

The Ai-Logger's software
From 006R the logger answers with the inverter's own RS485 address, and the export limit is controlled through the inverter's 45403. A logger with 003R-005R answers on unit 239 with a block of 390 registers per COM port, and the dongle then uses the logger's own limit in 60003, which applies to every inverter on the logger.
The battery
The logger gives no access to the battery's registers.

What the dongle allows for

  • The logger wants traffic every 1-3 seconds, so the dongle asks every second. After a closed connection, the dongle waits 5 seconds.
  • The logger takes only one client at a time.
  • The logger's own limit in 60003 is written again every 10 minutes.

How it differs from its neighbours

From the dongle's firmware and our notes on each inverter, not from the datasheet.

04

How to connect the dongle

Over your network, without a cable to the inverter. Approx. 15 minutes.

Connection
Solplanet Ai-Logger (Modbus TCP, port 9999)
Where
Solplanet's own logger, which is connected to the inverter's RS485 port Monitor (on the TH: Third_485) and to your network. The GridZeno dongle only needs power and network.

Before you buy

This one works.

Solplanet hybrid is the inverter GridZeno has been tested on. Check that your model is under ASW H-S2, H-T2, H-T3, H-T2/T3-DG, SH and TH with Ai-Logger. If it still doesn't suit you, you have 100 days' free return.
