FOX H1 Communication Cable Setup 

Required Materials: 

  • RJ11 cable (TAYLOR-GTW-C-03) 
  • Inverter communication connector (included in the packing list of the Fox H1 Inverter)

Installation Steps: 

  1. Connect the green wire from the RJ11 cable to Pin 4 of the inverter’s communication connector.

  2. Connect the red wire from the RJ11 cable to Pin 3 of the inverter’s communication connector.

  3. For installations with CT clamp: Connect the CT clamp to the same inverter communication connector.
    1. Use the 2-pole cable to connect CT+ of  CT clamp to Pins 8 of the inverter connector.

    2. Use the 2-pole cable to connect CT- of  CT clamp to Pins 7 of the inverter connector.
  4. For installation with Energy meter: Connect the energy meter to the same inverter communication connector.

    1. Use the 2-pole cable to connect Pin 24 of the energy meter to Pins 1 of the inverter connector.

    2. Use the 2-pole cable to connect Pin 25 of the energy meter to Pins 2 of the inverter connector.

    3. Configure inverter to 3phase energy meter (Menu -> Feature -> Meter\CT -> 3p meter.
  5. Plug the RJ11 connector into the Gateway (GW).
  6. Connect the inverter communication connector to the inverter’s METER/RS485 port, following the inverter installation guide.
