Third-Party Data Acquisition System (DAS) Connection

Ethernet Only Connection
The SOLECTRIA XGI 1500 series inverter only supports Ethernet connections to a third-
party DAS.
The inverter can be connected to either SolrenView or to a third-party Data Acquisition System (DAS). Only
Modbus TCP Ethernet connections are supported for a third-party DAS. Figure 5-4 shows a sample network
with a DAS and a Weather Station.
Figure 5-4 Sample Network Configurations with Weather Station and DAS
Connect the inverters to a third-party DAS via an Ethernet connection. For sites with daisy-chained inverters
(see Figure 5-2) the DAS and the modem or gateway must be at the ends of the chain, with all the inverters in
the middle. For a star configuration of inverters using Ethernet switches (see Figure 5-3), the DAS should
attach to a switch.
Always make sure the cellular modem or gateway has a direct Ethernet connection to one inverter.
5.3.1
Weather Station Connection (Optional)
Only use weather stations that can connect using Ethernet. The weather station must connect to the cellular
modem or gateway as in Figure 5-4.

The Status Panel provides inverter status information but does not provide the user the ability to control the
inverter. The inverter can be controlled by a laptop computer connected by Ethernet or Wi-Fi, or a smart device
such as a smartphone, connected via Wi-Fi.
