ReadyEdge
The ReadyEdgeTM accessory is an intelligent system controlling and reporting device meant to make monitoring your solar energy system more transparent. Paired with our online LiveView portal, ReadyEdge provides data from all compatible Morningstar devices in your system. It is designed to be paired with the three ReadyBlock options, up to six total, with the possibility to use multiple ReadyShunts and ReadyRelays.
The ReadyEdge is compatible with the GenStar MPPT and other select legacy Morningstar products. The following legacy Morningstar controllers and inverters can connect with the ReadyEdge via MeterBus port or RS-485 with a Meterbus-485 Adapter (MSC-1):
- SunSaver MPPT
- ProStar MPPT
- ProStar
- SureSine 300W
The additional legacy Morningstar controllers listed below can only connect with the ReadyEdge via RS-485 with a Meterbus-485 Adapter (MSC-1):
- TriStar MPPT 150V
- TriStar MPPT 600V
- TriStar PWM
