Thanks @Thunderdolt - now i know who to contact if i don’t come right. 8 appreciate the help.

No, that's the correct image. The RS-232 goes to an external box which is WiFi. This post has an image wifi box

On the Raspberry Pi - there is a solution available locally. See https://centurionsolar.co.za/about/shop/

A couple of months ago I replaced the USB module on my Axpert inverter with their Wifi module. WIth factory options you connect directly to the box and set up you WiFi password, etc. Unfortunately I got this wrong so it isn't connecting to my WiFi and I have no way to connect to it. The documentation (see attached) tells you how to perform a factory reset by using a jumper on the board - the 2 problems with this are: 1) they don's supply a jumper thingy - I guess I you just use piece of wire//paper clip? 2) the described board differs from the actual board (see attached) and I have no idea which pins to connect? I have not been successful at finding a solution with Google so would be grateful if anyone has any ideas as to how I can get back to the WiFi factory settings.

There is definitely a WiFi module available for the Axpert inverters. A few months ago I purchased the module from my installer which replaces the USB module which comes with the inverter. You could contact dean at newfiled.co.za
