Re: [RE-wrenches] Old & new Enphase communication issues

The new inverters communicate at a different frequency then the older
units, you will need a new EMU to connect to the new inverters, as so many
of the older units have failed it might be best to upgrade all the
inverters at the same time if they are compatible with your older modules

You can have both M series and IQ series in a "system" if you have an old
Envoy and a new IQ Envoy. An Enlighten monitoring site can have multiple
Envoys of different generations. As always, Envoys should be as
electrically close as possible to the MIs.

As Dave mentioned,

We manufacture M215 and M250 microinverters that are based upon the IQ 7 design 
and include an adapter cable that allows the microinverter to plug into the 
legacy Engage cables and talk to the legacy Envoy-S.  We sell 40 drop lengths 
of the portrait Engage cable (ET10-240) as well as Engage Terminators, Engage 
Seals, Engage wire clips, and Engage Accessory Kits (which include the 
Disconnect Tools)

These are legacy components are available at an online store here:

Since Enphase stopped making the old M215's, they have been sending out M215's 
that look like IQ microinverters, with an adapter. These supposedly work with 
the old Envoy. I am not sure if they are only available as warranty replacents, 
or if you can purchase them new though.
