I'm trying to decipher why an existing system installed by others has three Comboxes. There are 4 XW+, 9 MPPT80, and an AGS. That sounds like 18 Xanbus devices, so I can't figure out why they used two slaves (one for XWs and AGS and the other for MPPT) and a third combox as master. The master has never aggregated data properly.
I'm thinking of scrapping everything and just using a single Conext Gateway.
