Page 6: Safety
If you are not able to understand the language used in this documentation sufficiently, please contact and inform the supplier of the situation. Do not try to attempt to install or put the GridManager with FEED-IN function into service until you have read through all the documentation supplied thoroughly. -
Page 7: Prerequisites
Prerequisites 4 Prerequisites The inverters and the GridManager should be connected in one Ethernet using a dedicated switch for this setup. Using RS485 for regulation is not possible. Abbildung Bezeichnung Beschreibung V 2.7.4 Laptop or PC death. For setting up the with SOLPLUS+ GridManager. -
Page 8: Mode Of Operation
Mode of Operation 5 Mode of Operation The GridManager covers the power management of the inverter as a function of local consumption. It’s located between the SOLPLUS inverters and appliances; and the power meter. The typical reaction time for power regulation is 4 Milliseconds. -

Page 13: Connecting Gridmanager, Inverters And Pc1
8 Connecting GridManager, inverters and PC All devices are connected using a standard ethernet-switch and -cables. The GridManager itself has no display. In the first 60 seconds after starting up the GridManager uses always the IP-address 192.168.0.98. If a connection to this address is established, the GridManager will continue to use this IP-address, otherwise it will switch to the set IP-address after these 60 seconds. -

Page 15: Data Connection To Gridmanager Using Solplus
SOLPLUS+ and it’s manuals are available on our homepage www.solutronic-en- ergy.de. Please use the latest version available, at least the version stated in chapter 4. To setup the GridManager you’ll need the professional version of SOLPLUS+. If you need a professional key, please contact our service. -
Page 16: Parameter Settings Gridmanager
11.1 IP-address GridManager Note GridManager uses the same password mechanics as a inverter. You will need your individual password level 3 to setup the parameters. Please see the manual for password level 3 on how to get and enter a password level 3. -

Page 21: Additional Settings
11.4.2 Defining power class for GridManager 63A and 250A This setting is usually not necessary to change, as it’s already set according to the power class of the GridManager. The value 80 or 81 defines the internal scaling of GridManager either to 63 A or 250 A. - Page 22 Parameter settings GridManager Sets the interval at which the UDP packets are sent. All (P402 + 1) * 20ms a packet is sent. That is, With the default setting of "4" a packet is sent every 100ms, with the setting "0" a packet is sent every 20ms.

Page 25: Fallback
Parameter settings Inverter 12.4 Fallback Should the inverters not be able to recive regulation packets from the GridManager they will use this parameter to limit their output. This prevents violation of rules but reduces effectiveness. This parameter is ignored as long the inverter receives regulation packets. -
