How to fit and setup the device
Page 44 from 66
Update firmware button - allows you to update firmware of this product. Updates are freely accessible
in Download section at manufacturer’s web pages. If there is an update available you may download it
and install it. The progress of the update process is indicated on screen and it takes about up to 60
seconds.
Update of original firmware is completely safe. The system fully and thoroughly inspects the
integrity of the update file, as well as the integrity of data after downloading. In case of a power
failure during the update, you may download the firmware again at any time after your power is
restored. Should you experience an unsuccessful firmware update repeatedly, you may file a claim
pursuant to valid trade terms and conditions. It is strictly prohibited to modify the downloaded file
in any way. If you modify the downloaded file and even if the system inspected the integrity, you
may still damage your product and lose your warranty!
Buy additional features- display dialog with the same name, where you can purchase optional SW
features and activate them in the controller. For more details, see chapter Buy additional features
window.
STATISTICS TAB
Note:
This function is only accessible with activated Statistics SW feature.
This tab displays daily, weekly, monthly and yearly statistics on production, consumption and surplus (excess)
energy, as they were saved to internal EEPROM memory. Statistics can be exported to *.csv files.
Through current sensing module you can obtain only the consumption and surplus (excess)
energy. To display data on production and self-consumption, it is necessary to connect a pulse
output from an external meter to FB input, which measures the output power of the inverter.
Alternatively, connect inverter directly to the FB input when the inverter is equipped with a
compatible pulse output. It is also necessary to configure the FB input in the "Measurement
source" field on the Settings tab, in order to let the controller process the counted value properly.
Values are approximate! The device does not know the exact values from utility/billing meters!
Daily statistics are reset every time just after midnight, i.e. at 0:00 A.M. At the same time, daily
values from the just finished day are moved into history. When you change the date in the
controller you may cause irreversible deletion of stored history!
Real time chart (since firmware version 1.7):
Up to 7 rows can be selected in this line chart, which can display power curves. You can select a time base of
acquiring values from 1 second to 10 minutes. The maximum number of points on the time axis of the chart is
144 (when selecting a ten-minute period it corresponds to 1 day). The chart data are not stored in a non-
volatile EEPROM, and therefore after a reset, or if there is a power failure, the data is deleted. The data will
also be erased each time you reconfigure this chart.
Time base - configure the period of reading values into the chart.
Series 1-7 - dropdown menus configure the input or output to be loaded into the corresponding chart
series.
Export - exports chart data to a * .csv file that can be opened e.g. in MS-Excel.
