3.3 PVP Command Center
PV Powered has designed a revolutionary software program, the PVP Command Center.
The Command Center will track the status and efficiency of energy generated by the PV
panels and process real-time data generated by the StarInverter.
With the PVP Command Center, multiple inverters can be monitored both locally and
remotely with each inverter being identified by model and serial number. Once the
Command Center is locked onto an inverter, the display window will indicate the array
voltage (PV DC In), the total watts being outputted by the StarInverter (Power Out), and
the heat sink temperature. The
Inverter Tracker will graph both the PV DC In (volts) and
Power Out (watts) in hourly increments. The Command Center will also provide
information with regards to system status. If a fault has occurred, the Command Center
will provide a fault code and message to aid in troubleshooting. Refer to Figure 24.
The PVP Command Center requires Windows 98 or higher operating system and a .NET
Framework.
To install the Command Center, follow the steps outlined below:
1. Insert the PVP Command Center CD into the CD-Rom drive or download the file
provided by your distributor.
2. If your computer does not include a .NET Framework, first install the dotnetfx.exe
program by clicking on the icon.
3. Install the PVP Command Center by clicking on the StarInverter Setup icon and
following the instructions on your screen.
4. Retain the software for future use. In order to view the operating status of the
StarInverter remotely, each user must have the Command Center installed.
O
nce the software is installed, click on the StarInverter icon on your desktop. This will
bring up the main window.
Click on File>New Inverter to bring up the Communication Setup Dialog Window.
