8.5.4 System 

messages

System messages only pertain to information or faults in the 
monitoring system itself. You can make the following settings:

–

Status

Set this criterion to inactive or active.

–

Alarm type:

Used for logging on to or registering on the computer

that was called.

–

Alarm destination:

Indicates the contact that is notifi ed when an alarm  

 is 

triggered.

–

Alarm counter:

Indicates how often the respective alarm has already  

 occurred.

–

Current information:

Indicates when the last alarm was triggered. 

–

Reset:

Use the “Reset counter” button to reset the alarm  

 counter.

8.5.5 Inverters

This section contains settings for inverter monitoring. Alarm 
notifi cation is confi gured by indicating the alarm type (fax, 
e-mail, SMS) and the alarm destination (three contacts simul-
taneously).

–

Anomaly fi le is too big.

This fi le is used to record the status changes of the

inverters. The fi le is too big, because

too many status changes were recorded.

An alarm message is triggered.

–

Energy yield deviation:

Only works if the correct DC rated powers of the

inverters have been entered. 

–

Inverter does not answer):

This alarm occurs when an inverter does not answer.

–

Tolerance limit for energy comparison):

This setting pertains to the “Energy yield deviation”

alarm type. The characteristic curves of the    

inverters must remain within this range. The alarm 

 is   activated  when the upper or lower limit is  

 exceeded.
 

–

Time (hour) for checking whether the inverter responded 
to at least one protocol):

The inverter(s) must have responded to the Powador- 

 proLOG
 

at least once by the set time. Standard value: 13  

 (13:00).

–

Number of winter days + 1 before an alarm is sent when a 
protocol has not been answered):

–

Number of consecutive missing protocol answers before an 
alarm is sent):

–

Pacmin [%] for last received protocol for detection of a 
failure).

8.5.6 Formulas

This section includes settings for defi ning the various criteria 
for monitoring the system. 
You can defi ne the following parameters in the Settings sec-
tion:
 

–

Designation:

Enter the name of the criterion here.

–

Status:

Set this criterion to inactive or active. 

–

Time:

Analysis on an interval/daily basis 

–

Alarm destination:

Indicates the contact that is notifi ed when an alarm  

 is 

triggered. 

–

Message type:

Indicates the type of message (e-mail/fax). 

–

Delay:

Indicates how many intervals/days there are to wait  

before a message is issued when the criterion is in an  

 alarm 

condition.

–

Number of triggered alarms:

Indicates the number of alarms that have been  

 registered.
 

–

Reset counter:

Use this option to reset the counter (for alarms that  

have already occurred) to zero.

The 

formula settings

 are defi ned using

reverse Polish notation. An example showing how to set a 
criterion is provided in section 8 (“Confi guration
Example”).
