Inverter information
Information of any other connected devices.

This chapter describes setting up communication between:
The inverter and the monitoring platform through the Internet (wired/ wireless),
or through a cellular connection.
Multiple inverters for a master/slave configuration.
Communication setup is not required for power harvesting, however it is needed for
using the monitoring platform.
CAUTION!
When connecting the communication cables, make sure that the ON/OFF
switch on the Safety Switch is turned OFF, and the AC is turned OFF.
When configuring the communication parameters, make sure that the ON/OFF
