 ==== Assistants ====
-  * All self-consumption Assistants, Hub-1 to Hub-4, need to be loaded into each unit in the system.\\
+Assistants can be used to expand the potential configuration options of your system, and are required in some installation types. When using assistants with multiple units, some assistants are required to be loaded onto all units in the system individually, and some assistants are able to be just loaded onto some or one of the units.
+  * If you are using a self-consumption assistant, such as ESS, Hub-1 to Hub-4, the assistant will need to be loaded into each unit in the system individually.\\
   * PV Inverter Assistant needs to be loaded into each unit in the system.
   * The VE.Bus BMS and the Two-Signal BMS support Assistant also need to be loaded in each unit in the system.

 Tip: a quick way to load Assistants into each unit in the system is to save the settings after configuring the master in L1. Then open VEConfigure for another unit and load that file. VEConfigure will automatically adapt the Assistants for the slaves. (note: In some cases you might get some warnings. Please step through the assistant in that case.)
