Chapter 6: Setting Up Communication to the
Monitoring Platform
The inverter sends the following information to the monitoring platform:
Power optimizer information received via the DC power lines (the PV output circuit)
Inverter information
Information of any other connected devices
This chapter describes how to set up communication between:
The inverter and the monitoring platform through the Internet (wired/ wireless)
Multiple inverters for a leader-follower configuration
Communication setup is not required for power harvesting, however it is needed for
using the monitoring platform .
CAUTION!
When connecting the communication cables, make sure that the ON/OFF
switch on the Safety Switch is turned OFF, and the AC is turned OFF.
When configuring the communication parameters, make sure that the ON/OFF
switch on the Safety Switch is OFF, and the AC is turned ON.
ATTENTION!
Lors de la connexion des câbles de communication, assurez-vous que
l'interrupteur MARCHE/ARRÊT à la base de l'onduleur soit en position ARRÊT,
et le CA est en position ARRÊT. Lors de la configuration des paramètres de
communication, assurez-vous que l'interrupteur MARCHE/ARRÊT soit en
position ARRÊT, et le CA est en position MARCHE.

Communication Options

The following types of communication can be used to transfer the monitored
information from the inverter to the monitoring platform.
Only communication products offered by SolarEdge are supported.
