  • CAN communication on Delta H-6 Inverter

    Can someone tell me something aout the CAN communication system, i.e can you see information on your home computer with this system?

    CAN is a bus network. It uses messaging to communicate between devices. I implied in my earlier post about the difficulty connecting an inverter and BMS. Actually connecting them is simple electronics with a terminating resister.

    The difficulty will be having your inverter and BMS react to the messages. There are CAN bus sniffers that you can hook up to your computer and watch the messages on the bus. The messages may be unique to each device. You may be able to get a list of messages and their meaning from the manufacturer. I have heard about some people with programming skills and an Arduino making an interface. That is all I know but the details are available through some internet searches. I have not seen many posts on this Forum about CAN communications but others with that knowledge may chime in.
