Does Hub:One cause extra load on manufacturer or device apis?

Hub:One does not place any additional load on the servers of device manufacturers, as it does not connect to their APIs. Instead, we utilise the Modbus RTU protocol to gather data directly from the inverters. This connection is established locally at the inverter via the COM port to our own IoT device.

All collected data is then transmitted to our secure servers via the Hub:One. Consequently, there is no interaction with the manufacturers' servers, ensuring that there is no additional load, cost or connectivity issues imposed on their systems.
