DC ENERGY RESETABLE
is like a trip meter in your car. When reset this
records DC energy in and out of the system and gives a net total.
RESET ON
: shows the date when last reset so you can calculate how
many days have elapsed. By clicking the Reset tab all totals in this
reading are zeroed and accumulation of data starts again on the date of
the reset.
HOURS OF FLOAT
records what time float was achieved
on the previous day and how much time has been spent
in float since installation.
This data can be used for future system improvement
design. If your system never reaches float, you may
need to increase your solar array size, if your system
regularly enters float before lunch you may be able to
consider adding extra “luxury” loads to the system.
This panel gives a picture of the effect that Shunt 1
has had on your system. For the sake of clarity we will
assume that Shunt 1 measures your solar input. This,
then, records the solar contribution to your system since
the system was installed. Once again you can compare
today’s solar input with other averages to see if you’ve
had a good or a bad solar day.
As with the previous screen you can collect data over
a period you determine with the use of the
r
eSetaBLe
feature.
The
t
OtaL
a
CCuMuLated
is all the solar input to the system
since installation.
