 If you would like to connect the Fronius to be able to use the internet connection of your Local network, you have to set Gateway and DNS IP addresses on the Fronius as well. They should be exactly the same as in the Settings --> Ethernet of the GX Device.
+=== 2.2.1.4 special procedure for GEN24 model ===
+In Fronius GEN24 devices with software version 1.14 or higher, the Solar API interface is not activated by default and must be activated if required (e.g. integration of a GX device).
+The setting for this can be found on the user interface of the Fronius inverter under "Communication" - "Solar API".
+For GEN24, there is no physical toggle switch required (as there is with other models).
+Victron and Fronius have made no tests, nor make any claims about the performance of this integration.
+If light flickering issues occur, please contact your Fronius dealer.

 To update earlier and/or already installed PV Inverters, contact Fronius Tech Support for the file. The required file is fro29130.upd. Which works for all snap-inverter models (Primo, Symo and Eco). There is no, and will be no, fix available for Fronius Galvos.
+==== Q6 What do I do if my Fronius PV-inverter is detected as Unknown PV-inverter, or Multiphase, or cannot be configured as 3-phase? ====
+Later Fronius PV-inverters support both the Fronius SolarAPI- as well as the industry standard SunSpec protocol. When SunSpec is not available the GX device cannot properly detect the properties of the PV-inverter unless it is one of a fixed list of known older models. Newer PV-inverters will then show up as Unknown, and you will not be able to configure them as 3-phase.
+The solution is to configure SunSpec support on the PV-inverter.
+  * Log into the Fronius web interface.
+  * Go to the Modbus tab
+  * Set Data export via Modbus to tcp.
+  * set Sunspec Model Type to int + SF
