Operation of the PVPM

Page 10

2. External power supply (optional)

3. Irradiance reference sensor

4. Exernal RTD (Pt100) or short circuit adaptor

5. External security switch (see chapter 7) between power measurement cable and PVPM

6. 4-wire-measurement cable

The PVPM is equipped with the following  input/output interfaces (you will find all interfaces besides the power 
supply at the front panel, they are all marked):

Serial connection to PC (USB cable)

6.4 Power Supply

The PVPM contains a battery which let it become independent from mains grid power supply. The battery can be
charged by the external power supply and an integrated charge unit. After connecting the external power supply 
to front panel of the PVPM  the battery is charged automatically. The loading state is displayed by a LED at the 
front panel of the device.

6.5 Connecting a PC

The PVPM can operate independent from an external PC. For an extended evaluation of the measured data or 
just for controlling the PVPM from a PC you can connect the PC to the PVPM with the delivered USB cable. 
Attach this cable to a free USB port of your PC and to the “PC” connector of the PVPM. 

Before you can control the PVPM from the PC you will have to:

1. install the software PVPMdisp (chapter 9)

2. install the device driver for the USB port (chapter 10)

3. Activate “Transfer” on the PVPM

Otherwise a transfer between PVPM and PC will not be possible.

Caution: before you can control the PVPM from a PC with PVPM.disp it is necessary to select the menu option 
“transfer” on the PVPM. Otherwise the PVPM will not listen to the serial port and the PC can not access the 
device.

6.6 Connecting the Solar Generator

Important

: during an I-V-curve measurement the solar generator under test must be disconnected from all 

other devices like batteries, inverters or loads. During the measurement the PVPM will short circuit the solar 
generator for some seconds and it might be damaged by still connected batteries or load capacities of the 
inverter!

Connect the PVPM properly to the solar generator using the cables delivered with the PVPM. The 

plus pole is 

marked RED

, the 

minus pole is marked BLACK

! 

Assure that all connectors of the power measuring cables are pushed in completely (until stop) into the
sockets.
