Hello All,

SPF 3000TL LVM-ES 3kW pv input when 2 in parallel split phase 240, 4 ea 400 watt 48volt panels in series.

Can I connect the PV inputs to just one of the inverters for it to work?
 
In the Parallel section of the manual, it just says to refer to the single unit PV connection instructions. Nothing indicates that special consideration is required for the PV inputs when in parallel mode.
Each unit has its own MPPT controller, which would drive charging of the battery bus with whatever solar input it gets. Just like you can connect 2 independent solar chargers to one battery bus, you can also connect the two independent SPF3000 units to the same bus and have each one charging independently from it's own PV input.
 
you can connect up to 2000 watts on each inverter just stay below 145 volts open circuit
i have 3 pairs of 205watt 72 cell panel on one inverter now and will have 16 100 or 75 watts panels in strings of 4 connected to the other
works great
