 # SolarEdge Modbus Multi
 
-Home Assistant integration `solaredge-modbus-multi` supports SolarEdge inverters with Modbus/TCP local polling. It works with single inverters, multiple inverters, meters, batteries, and many other improvements over other integrations that didn't work well with a multi-device setup.
-
-It is designed to communicate locally using Modbus/TCP where you have a single Leader inverter connected with one or more Follower inverters chained using the RS485 bus. Each inverter can connect to three meters and two batteries.
-
-Simple single inverter setups are fully supported - multiple devices is a feature, not a requirement.
+This integration provides Modbus/TCP local polling to one or more SolarEdge inverters for Home Assistant. Each inverter can support three meters and three batteries over Modbus/TCP. It works with single inverters, multiple inverters, meters, and batteries. It has significant improvements over similar integrations, and `solaredge-modbus-multi` is actively maintained.
