VSN700 Data Logger Product Manual
The port configuration for the Primary RS-485 port on the VSN700 Commercial must remain set to
Modbus RTU (default value). Configuration of the Primary RS-485 port only needs to be
completed when using an optional weather station.
Configure the Primary RS-485 port using the following procedure. Bring up the data logger's web
interface in the same manner as for configuring inverters (connect an Ethernet cable from the data
logger's Eth1 port to a laptop and go to http://172.17.17.1).
To add the VSN800 weather station go to the Home tab and push the Find button for the Primary
RS-485 port. Click on Start in the window that pops up to begin the device discovery process. The
default Modbus address for the VSN800 weather stations is 60. It is not necessary to let the scan
finish, once it has discovered the device the scan can be stopped and closed.
