4. Select Meter Function, and choose one of the following options:
Export+Import: The meter is installed at the grid connection point and reads
pulses from both directions - export and import energy.
Consumption: The meter is installed at the load consumption point and reads
the energy consumed by the site.
Site Production: The meter is installed at the inverter output and reads the
energy produced by the inverters at the site.
Ext. Production: The meter is used for export limitation with 3rd party generators
and for AC coupling with non-SolarEdge inverters.
5. Select Meter Protocol, and select SolarEdge.
6. Set Device ID: 2.
7. Select CT Rating to set the CT rating to the value that appears on the CT. The default
is 5 Amperes. If the displayed rating is 0 or you cannot change the value, there is no
