Preliminary notes on how to configure the datalogger The AzzurroZCS inverters can be monitored via a datalogger connected to a Wi-Fi network present at the place of installation or via an ethernet cable connected to a modem. The inverters are connected in a daisy chain to the datalogger via a RS485 serial line.

    All these devices carry out the same function, i.e. they transmit data from the inverters to a web server to allow remote monitoring of the system either through the “Azzurro Monitoring” app or through the “www.zcsazzurroportal.com” website. All the Azzurro ZCS inverters can be monitored using the datalogger; different models or families of inverters can also be monitored.
