Parameters

Modbus

Name	Description	Value	Level
`id`	Modbus ID Default: `1`	int	required
`device`	Device name USB-RS485 adapter Example: `/dev/ttyUSB0`		required
`baudrate`	Baudrate Default: `9600`		required
`comset`	ComSet Communication parameter for the adapter Default: `8N1`		required
`host`	IP address or hostname Example: `192.0.2.2`		required
`port`	Port Default: `502`	int	required
`minsoc` [%]	Minimum charge Lower limit as configured on the battery system. Used by optimizer. Default: `10` Example: `25`		optional
`maxsoc` [%]	Maximum charge Upper limit as configured on the battery system. Used by optimizer and, on some devices, for grid charging. Default: `100` Example: `95`		optional
`maxchargepower` [W]	Maximum charge power Highest power the battery system can charge with. The optimizer plans with charging up to this power. Some devices also use it as grid charging power. Default: `1200`		optional
`maxdischargepower` [W]	Maximum discharge power Highest power the battery system can discharge with. The optimizer plans with discharging up to this power. Smart mode assumes the battery supplies at most this power to vehicle charging. Default: `800`		optional
`capacity` [kWh]	Battery capacity Default: `2.11` Example: `50`		optional
`maxacpower` [W]	Maximum AC power of the hybrid inverter Default: `800` Example: `5000`		advanced
