 There is a great variety of E3/DC implementation configurations, that can't automatically be detected. For example the `index` of the root power meter can be either `0` or `6`, depending how the system was installed. Additional power meter can have an ID of `1-4` and there might be also multiple inverter.
 This library assumes, that there is one inverter installed and the root power meter has an index of `6` for S10 mini and `0` for other systems.

-### Note: The RSCP interface
+## Note: The RSCP interface
 
 The communication to an E3/DC system has to be implemented via a rather complicated protocol, called by E3/DC RSCP. This protocol is binary and based on websockets. The documentation provided by E3/DC is limited and outdated. It can be found in the E3/DC download portal.
 
 If keepAlive is false, the websocket connection is closed after the command. This makes sense because these requests are not meant to be made as often as the status requests, however, if keepAlive is True, the connection is left open and kept alive in the background in a separate thread.
