Connecting an External Power Supply
General The Fronius String Control 250/25 DCD DF is supplied power through
Solar Net.
The power supply from Solar Net, however, may no longer be sufficient
when combined with additional DATCOM components or when data com-
munication cables exceed a length of 100 m.
In this case, an external power supply is available.
For reasons of access, Fronius recommends that the external power
supply be plugged into another DATCOM component rather than the
Fronius String Control 250/25 DCD DF whenever possible.
If there is no other easier connection option, the following describes the
work steps involved in connecting the external power supply to the Froni-
us String Control 250/25 DCD DF.
