Charts displaying battery data
Note
Battery inverters have a different operating pattern than PV inverters. Therefore, VCOM treats them differently. You will not find your battery inverters in the regular Inverters section for PV inverters.
At system level in the tab Evaluation, the following charts give you insight into your battery performance:
-
Section System:
-
Section Battery storage:
-
AC energy chart
-
DC energy chart
-
Tip
Additionally, generate user-defined charts with your basic battery data using the Chart generator.
Portlets displaying battery data
At System level , the default Battery tab contains the following portlets to let you view your battery data at a glance:
-
