3. Start Up
A minimum available voltage of
184 V
AC
,
230 V
DC
and a power greater than
7 W
DC
is
required before the inverter starts feeding power to the grid.
AC side
•
Turn ON the AC circuit breaker(s).
DC side
•
Turn ON the DC switch(es).
3.1. Initial Start
When the inverter is started for the first time, an installation menu is automatically
displayed to enable the configuration of certain critical values and operational settings.
3.1.1. Customizing the Inverter Settings
Single Inverter
•
When both the DC and the AC switches are turned ON and the inverter is supplied with
enough power, an installation menu is displayed in the LCD screen.
Multiple Connected Inverters
1. CAN
•
Connecting all inverters via the CAN bus enables the configuration of all inverters in a
plant via one inverter. The
Start Up
can then be carried out on any inverter, and if
configured as the
master
inverter the configuration settings of
time
,
date
,
language
and
grid settings
will be transferred to all the other
follower
inverters on the network.
•
Each
follower
inverter is automatically assigned an ID number from the
master
during
Start Up
.
2. RS-485
•
Connecting the inverters via the RS-485 bus enables communication with third party
equipment.
•
Each inverter must manually be assigned an ID, a bit rate number and a parity number:
-
The ID number must be between 1 and 247.
-
Both the
master
inverter and the
follower
inverters need a bitrate number and a
parity number. Compare with the setup in the third party equipment (eg. an
external data logger) and write this number in the inverter’s network menu. Refer
to section
6.2.4.2 Network Setup
of the
User Guide
for more details.
Defaults are: bitrate –
19200
and parity –
none
.
