Press the 

ACK/ENTER

 button: the controller highlights the error counter of the first 

communication interface. 

 

Use ▲ and ▼ to highlight the counter you wish to reset. 

 

Press 

ACK/ENTER

 + 

ESC/SHIFT

 for 5 seconds: at the end the controller resets the

Press 

ESC/SHIFT

If an external modem is connected to the controller, the following is also displayed: 

 

The model of the modem. 

 

In case of GSM modem: 

o

  The name of the mobile operator. 

o

  The level of the GSM signal. 

 

This page is dedicated to the communication status of the Ethernet interface. 

La controller shows: 

 

The connection status: 

o

 

“Idle”

: cable disconnected from the Ethernet network. 

o

 

“idle-linked”

: cable connected to the Ethernet network, but no communication 

in progress. 

o

 

Communication in progress”

 

The MAC address of the physical network interface. 

 

The name under which the controller registered on the network (if using DHCP). 

 

The IP address assigned to the controller. 

 

The address of the router/gateway of the network. 

 

The subnet-mask of the network. 

 

The address of the DNS server. 

 

The number of active "incoming" TCP connections (Modbus TCP slave). 

 

The number of active "outgoing" TCP connections (Modbus TCP master to inverter). 

Some of these values can be set with the controller parameters, or acquired dynamically by 
the DHCP server.  

 

This page displays the status of the Can Bus interfaces. RN200 has two interfaces. For each 
interface are displayed: 

 

The communication status. There are three possible indications: 

o

  ERROR-ACTIVE: normal operation 

o

  ERROR-PASSIVE: there are anomalies (errors) but the communication is 

still working. 

o

  BUS-OFF: the board has disconnected from the bus due to too many errors.
