W-Modbus Solar Kit is here!

LumenRadio is launching W‑Modbus Solar Kit, a pre‑commissioned kit designed to bring true plug-and-play wireless Modbus connectivity to solar installations. Connect power and RS485, and you’re done.

Wireless that works from the moment you open the box

W‑Modbus Solar ships as a matched, pre‑commissioned Gateway and Node pair, purpose-built for installation next to the inverter and smart meter. There is no network commissioning to perform, no wireless setup to step through, and no lengthy manuals to read before getting started. The kit arrives ready to work.

The only connections required on site are power and RS485 and the system takes it from there.

A Solar mode built for how inverters actually communicate

At the heart of W‑Modbus Solar is a patent-pending Solar mode, specifically designed to handle the Modbus polling requests that inverters generate. Inverters are demanding Modbus masters: they poll frequently, they expect fast responses, and they don’t tolerate missed packets. Solar mode is preconfigured to meet those demands, straight out of the box, so installers don’t have to tune anything to make it work reliably.

This means faster commissioning on site, fewer callbacks, and installations that simply behave the way they should from day one.

Interference-free by design

Solar installations don’t exist in a radio vacuum. Inverters, smart meters, and the wider building environment all contribute to a busy RF landscape. W‑Modbus Solar is built on LumenRadio’s patented cognitive coexistence technology, which continuously monitors the radio environment and performs intelligent channel hopping to avoid interference. The result is high packet delivery reliability even in congested conditions, without any manual frequency management required from the installer.

The fastest path from unboxing to a working installation

W‑Modbus Solar removes every step that doesn’t need to be there. No network pairing, no configuration software, no site survey before you can start. Pre-commissioned devices mean the Gateway and Node already know each other. Solar mode means the Modbus behaviour is already configured. RS485 wiring is all that remains.

For installers working across multiple rooftop or ground-mounted sites, that kind of repeatability matters.
