REbus Beacon Setup
REbus Beacon allows the PWRcell system to manage
energy production and storage over the course of the
day. This is called Time of Use (TOU) energy manage
-
ment. To take advantage of this functionality, the PWR
-
cell system must include a PWRcell battery and a reliable
connection to the Internet via an Ethernet connection to a
router.
NOTE:
Enabling and setup of the REbus Beacon is only
required when utilized for TOU scheduling. Otherwise, do
not enable the REbus Beacon.
