  • Page 13: Operation Mode Definition

    3. Operation Mode Definition The inverter has four standard operation modes. 3.1. Waiting mode In waiting mode, the inverter is ready to switch into connecting mode. As decision variable the input voltage of the PV generator is used. Inverter is waiting to checking when output DC voltage from PV panels is greater than 100V (lowest start-up voltage) but less than 150V (lowest operating voltage).
  • Page 14 LCD display Possible actions Isolation Fault 1. Check the impedance between PV (+)&PV(-) and the inverter is earthed. The impedance must be greater than 2MΩ 2. Check whether the AC end has contacted with earth Ground Fault 1. The ground current is too high 2.

  • Page 15: Installation And Startup

    The Trannergy inverter may become hot in normal operation. Do not install the Trannergy inverter on easily flammable materials and where flammable materials are stored. Do not install the Trannergy inverter where there is a risk of explosion. Caution! Danger of burns from hot housing components! Install the Trannergy inverter at a proper place where it cannot be touched unintentional.

    6. Communication and Monitoring 6.1. Communication Interfaces This product has a communication interface RS-232, RS-485 and Wireless (optional). Operating information like output voltage, current, frequency, fault information, etc., can be delivered to PC or hardware storage devices or other monitoring equipment via communication interface. 6.2.

  • Page 35: Rs-485 Communication For Several Inverters

    Notes: If your computer doesn’t have the DB9 communication interface, you can use RS232-USB cable to achieve this function. One inverter can only be communicated with one PC at the same time through RS-232 port. Thus this method is generally used for single inverter’s communication, for examples, software updating and serviceman’s testing.
