Charge current sensor for WS-8-250-DC

Thu Sep 10, 2015 9:57 am

This switch does almost everything that we need. But I don't have telemetry on my charge controllers. If there were a sensor that I could put in series with my batteries that could plug into a new port on the WS-8-250-DC that would show up in the GUI and SNMP.

Maybe even an ADC port and we could supply our own shunt for measuring current..

Does your charge controller have a serial port?

No, and I don't know that they have a shunt anywhere. But they are inexpensive, efficient, and reliable. Just no telemetry...
