Will this work without the zigbee repeater? Just by connecting the zigbee from the inverter over to my SmartThings hub with zigbee?
We were originally in a lease with sunrun before we purchased. They came out a few years ago to upgrade their cellular monitoring from 3G to LTE. They told us we didn’t need the solar edge zigbee communication anymore. But now that we bought the system and I’m trying to monitor it through solar edge, there’s no communication and solar edge is telling me I have to go back to sunrun to get the zigbee repeater set up. But I was able to get my API key from solar edge so I would like to try this method of monitoring through smartThings. If I can do it without having to replace the zigbee repeater that would be best. Then if I do have to replace the repeater, I don’t know if the existing zigbee antenna in the inverter is keyed or paired up and has to be matched identical to the original repeater or if a new repeater can take the place and be connected…
I appreciate any help from anybody who has experience with this thank you.
