Monitoring systems
PV plant software
Smart software for collecting data and monitoring
photovoltaic plants
The ideal addition to the Transclinic xi+ string monitoring,
it consists of two program modules:
The configuration module
The configuration module allows you to easily integrate the
devices and facility components to be monitored (device
combiner boxes, inverters, meters, weather sensors, etc.).
These components can then be organised, grouped and
renamed as needed. The users can easily specify e-mail or
SMS-text messages that are to be sent out automatically as
an alarm to any specific group. The configuration module also
accesses the data needed for monitoring the photovoltaic
plant online.
The visualisation module
The visualisation module is used to view and save the online data that
has been sent to the PC. The data describing the current states of
the photovoltaic system can be saved in the mySQL database and
displayed graphically to permit more detailed analysis. The data can
also be exported as an Excel or PDF file and then be sent in an
e-mail. It is also possible to administer the alarms and their
acknowledgements; this permits the schedule of the corresponding
service procedures to be accurately documented.

MODBUS
RTU
Universal and vendor-neutral
Many different devices, regardless of brand, can be integrated
into PV-Plant. Using the RTU Modbus, the data from frequency
inverters or weather sensors can be displayed and evaluated.
Clearly arranged alarm controls
Intuitive configuration
A clear tree based topology is used
for the configuration. Values can be
displayed and changed using drag
and drop mouse clicks.
The causes of the alarm (e.g., value deviation)
and the alarm types (e.g., SMS-text, e-mail)
can be configured flexibly.
