Start-up and operation 27
Verify that no faults or warnings are active. If faults or warnings occur, refer to the Firmware manual .
Configure network interface to match with the local network (parameter group 154).
Turn the Start/Stop switch to “start”, set parameter 189.01 to “Enable”, and start the inverter.
A normal starting procedure:
After the start command, the inverter goes from the “Initialize” to the “Disconnected” state (refer to
parameter 173.02). If there is sufficient DC voltage, and the ground impedance is within range, the
inverter goes to the “Connecting” state after the delay set in parameter 213.10.
In this state inverter charges the DC capacitors from the AC output and synchronizes to the grid. The
DC contactor closes. The inverter goes to the MPPT state and starts to produce active power to the AC
output. When there is not enough DC voltage or power available, the inverter goes to the
“Disconnecting” state after the delay set in parameter 213.13.
Make sure that the inverter operates properly from the following actual value parameters:
• 101.01 DC Voltage
• 101.12 Power
• 174.31 to 174.94 where the active input parameters depend on the DC input options (+G417).
The DC voltage should decrease from the open circuit voltage and the active power should match the
line current and the AC voltage.

Set up fieldbus control
Connect the external communications, for example, for the data logger, plant controller or SCADA
system. Obey the safety rules as instructed in the PVS980-58 manuals when doing this.
Configure network interface to match with the local network (parameter group 154).
Set the fieldbus parameters according to the external controller.
Refer to the
Firmware manual and the fieldbus adapter module manual.
Make sure that the inverter can be seen from the external controller.
Do a test with control and actual values.

Register the inverter
Fill in a commissioning report to register the inverter.
It is required to attach the parameter lists and back-up files of the inverter. to the report.
