Description
Where to find:
communicate at least once with the controller. This
happens at factory level.
If more rectifiers are installed than Install Rectifier Count, the rectifiers will work but no
alarms will be reported.
RECTIFIER REGISTRATION
All the rectifier slots in the DC Power system are identical. The Controller automatically registers all rectifier
modules and solar chargers as they are inserted into the dc power system. Rectifiers are assigned a sequence
number in the order these are registered. All further reference to rectifiers / solar chargers is with this
sequence number. To have one to one correspondence between the Rack Slot numbers and rectifiers, the
following procedure shall be followed.
➢
New System Installation
•
Remove or Switch Off all the Rectifiers. Keep Rectifier in Slot 1 in switched on condition.
•
Go to Home
Settings
Rectifiers Settings
ID De-Register and select ALL. This will de-
register all rectifiers.
•
Switch Off Rectifier in Slot 1 also and Switch it on again after a few seconds.
•
Once Controller / Rectifier boots up, Controller will search ID of rectifier and register it as
Rectifier number 1.
•
Check Registration status & Rectifier Serial number from Home
System Status
Rectifier
Individual Rectifier Status
•
Now switch on rectifier in slot 2. Controller will register it for rectifier number 2. Registration
status can be checked as above.
•
Similarly register all rectifiers one by one in correct sequence.
•
Controller will register rectifiers install count set at Home
Settings
Rectifier Settings
Installed SMR.
•
Controller will not register rectifiers more than
“Rectifier Install Count” set above.
•
If the number of Rectifiers installed is less than
“Rectifier Install Count”
, the Rectifier
Communication Fail alarm will keep generating. In such a case whenever a new rectifier is
inserted, it will automatically get registered at next slot location.
It takes about 2-3 seconds for registration of one rectifier.
A normal blinking of Green LED of Rectifier shows correct registration of individual rectifier.
➢
Rectifier LEDs
Three LEDs located to the centre of the front panel of rectifier indicate the following status:
1st LED (Green): OFF
-
AC fails
ON
-
AC OK
Flashing -
Blink at rate of 500ms when rectifier identified by controller.
Flash when EC500 poll rectifier for command.
2nd LED (Yellow): OFF
-
Normal
ON
-
