ET112 + Multiplus II baud rate

I had to install an ET112 because one VM-3P75CT was not enough for my setup and I'm wondering if Multiplus II GX supports any baud rates apart from default 9600.

The meter works well with the default baud rate, I'm just curious if any other modes are supported.

Thanks.

The posts there seem to be misleading. I've tried to change the baud rate with Carlo Gavazzi UCS, although my Multiplus just doesn't see it. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but only 9600 works for me.

Not sure of your actual objective. The baud rate will only potentially impact the latency between the GX and ET112, which is berween 180-250ms at a 9600 baud rate. There are however other factors involved too, so not a given. This does not change the slow'ish 750ms refresh of the ET112 meter. If you are looking to improve the inverter response time, then search the forum on the topic which has been discussed in depth. Solutions include using a CT clamp (I do) or maybe look at the EM540 which has a 100ms response time.
