Before placing into operation it is essential to read the assembly instructions provided with the
device.
Commissioning takes place in a few steps and must be carried out when the AC•THOR is started for
the first time or after resetting to factory settings.
Use the left and right arrow keys to see more options.
From firmware version a0020202 onwards, French or Spanish can be selected in addition to German
and English.
See chapter headed "Operating modes".
The selection can also be changed at a later date.
Use the left and right arrow keys to see more options.
Besides the my-PV Meter and open communication protocols such as http, Modbus TCP, Adjustable
Modbus RTU and Adjustable Modbus TCP, as well as frequency control, pre-set signal sources are
available for many compatible manufacturers.
For certain compatible partners the choice between „Auto“ (automatic IP
-search of the device) or
„Manual“ (manual entry of the IP address of the source) is possible.
If a control type with the
addition "Manual" is selected, the next step is to set the IP address of the signal source.
In the case of a control mode with the addition "Manual", the IP address of the signal source
must not change during operation (e.g. by a DHCP router), otherwise the
AC•
THOR will lose the
control signal.
