3.2.7.2 Software for direct monitoring
Together with the Powador inverter, KACO-viso takes over the role of a data logger. It saves the data from the
inverter and displays it in various diagram types as a daily or monthly representation.
The PC, however, must also run continuously. Because of the amount of energy used, this type of monitoring only
makes sense over limited periods, such as during a fault analysis. For permanent system monitoring, we recommend
the optional accessories (see page 14). (Powador-proLOG)
3.2.7.3 RS485 interface
Use this monitoring option if you cannot check the functioning of the system on-site on a regular basis, e.g. if
your place of residence is located a great distance from the system. To connect the RS485 interface, contact your
authorised electrician.
For monitoring your PV system using the RS485 interface, KACO new energy GmbH off ers the following units:
Powador-proLOG S to XL (optional)
Powador-proLOG allows you to monitor up to 31 inverters simultaneously. Depending on the product model,
Powador-proLOG sends yield and operating data by SMS or e-mail.
Powador-link RS485 (optional)
Use the Powador-link RS485 to bridge long distances between several inverters or between an inverter and the
Powador-proLOG by means of wireless radio transmission.
3.2.7.4 S0 interface
The S0 interface transmits pulses between a pulsing counter and a tariff metering unit. It is a galvanically isolated
transistor output. It is designed according to DIN EN 62053-31:1999-04 (pulse output devices for electromechanical
and electronic meters).
NOTE
The S0 interface pulse rate can be chosen in three unit intervals (500, 1,000 and 2,000 pulses/kWh).
3.2.7.5 Digital input
If a Powador protect is installed as external grid and system protection, the fail-safe disconnection of suitable
Powador inverters from the public grid can be initiated by a digital signal instead of by tie circuit-breakers. This
requires the inverters in the photovoltaic system to be connected to the Powador protect. For information on
the installation and use see this manual, the Powador protect manual and the instructions for use of the Powador
protect on the web site.
