Basic info

Description

The chart allows you to monitor the DC current of each string of each inverter’s MPPT individually.

Prerequisites

  • Your system has string inverters and their inputs appear at system level under icon-wrench1.png System settings > icon-database-insert.png Data sources > [Data source name] > String inverter inputs.

  • You set up a subsystem that includes the inverters you want to be displayed in the chart. See Add a PV subsystem or Add a hybrid subsystem.

  • All inverter input strings you want to be displayed are activated.

Further details

  • You can find the settings for string inverter inputs at System level under icon-wrench1.png System settings > icon-database-insert.png Data sources > [Data logger name] > String inverter inputs.

  • You can rename your inverter inputs. Default naming convention is: I_DCx_y (z)

    • x = MPPT

    • y = input

    • z = inverter

  • By default, only one inverter is selected to be displayed in the chart. You can change the selection manually.

  • Battery inverters are not included in this chart.

  • The chart is not available for systems with string combiner boxes.
