Communication

5.1 Communications software instructions

ShineNET  is  a  PC  software  that  communicates  with  Shine  Inverter  to  analyze  the 
inverter work state. It is convenient for you to know the inverter real time working 
state and the history work information.

Spec:

1.

Communicate with inverter by RS232 and Bluetooth.

2.

Construct  net  with  inverter,  GROmonitor  and  ShineNet  by  RS232,  Bluetooth 

and Internet.

3.

Two Interfaces: Multi Inverter Interface and Wave Data Interface.

4.

In Multi Inverter Interface: 9 inverters working data at the same time, you can 

select your own compare inverters and parameters.

5.

In  Wave  Data  Interface:  Query  the  inverter  real  time  and  history  power  wave, 

work data and error information.

6.

Multi  languages:  English,  Simple  Chinese,  French,  German,  Spanish  and  etc.         

Support OS: WinXP / Vista / win7 / 2000/ 2003

5.2 Monitor

After  setting  the  software  the  user  can  monitor  the  inverter.  The  right  side  of  the 
main interface is the detailed information of inverter.

5.3 Detailed information

Detailed setting method and other functions refer to “ShineNET Manual.” in the CD.

5.4 RS 485 cable connection

1. Please take out the RS485 waterproof device from the Accessories bag, even if you 
don’t  choose  RS485  as  communication  method,  the  RS485  waterproof  device  still 
has to be locked on the inverter.

2. Twist off the waterproof connector, and pull out one or two Stopper according to
