Monitoring Compatibility
The SOLECTRIA XGI is compatible with SolrenView and third-party Data Acquisition Systems (DAS). When
using SolrenView monitoring no additional hardware is required. When connecting with third-party monitoring
providers, Ethernet connections must be used; RS485 is not supported.
When integrating SOLECTRIA XGI inverters with third-party monitoring platforms, one of the following methods
MUST be employed in order for the third-party DAS to reach each inverter as an Endpoint Device; 1. Port
forwarding, 2. Static Routing (discussed in detail in Section 5.7). Be sure to consult with the monitoring
provider before installation.
Third-Party Data Acquisition System (DAS) Connection
Ethernet Only Connection: The XGI 1000 series inverter only supports Ethernet connections to a third-party
DAS.
Connect the third-party DAS to the onsite LAN, outside of the Cluster LAN(s). Connecting a third-party DAS
inside the Cluster LAN will block communication to the DAS outside of the Cluster LAN.
If DHCP is not enabled on the LAN, a static IP assignment for the GUI must be configured. When using DHCP
consider using a reserved DHCP address.
To allow a third-party DAS (or any other device) to access inverters within a cluster(s) and treat all inverters as
Endpoint Devices, Port Forwarding or Static Routing must be used.
