5.1.4. Remote
unit/Solarim.
This section allows selecting the type of remote unit to be used (if available) and setting
the values of typical parameters (Sensitivity and Alpha) of the reference irradiance cell
supplied with the meter.
The values of these parameters, which are printed on the
back label of the cell, depend on the type of PV modules on test.
1. Move the cursor to “
Remote unit
” by means of the arrow
keys (
,
) and confirm with
ENTER
2. The display shows the screen which allows:
Select the type of remote unit to be used for testing PV
systems (SOLAR I-Vw or SOLAR I-Ve):
o
NO:
Remote unit disabled
o
SOLAR: Use of SOLAR-02
o
MPP300: Use of MPP300 (optional)
Enable/disable the use of the remote unit SOLAR-02 for
I-V measurements (opt. for I-V400w and I-V500w). In
case the use of the remote unit has not been enabled, it
will be possible to set the sensitivity values (sens.) of the
reference cell provided, expressed in “mV/kW*m-2”, and
of the Alpha parameter.
3. Set the value by means of the arrow keys (
,
)
4. Confirm with
SAVE
and the “Saved data” message is
displayed for a while. Press
ESC/MENU
key to exit without
saving and to go back to the previous screen

CAUTION
For EFF measurements (testing of PV systems – SOLAR I-Vw or SOLAR I-
Ve), disabling the remote unit
entails
:
The impossibility of carrying out Irradiation and Temperature
measurements by means of unit SOLAR-02
The impossibility of using the unit MPP300
(if available)
Consequently, it will be impossible to obtain a result for the test carried out.
