Assigning a new number
(only for inverters without their own addressing function)
Inverters that do not have the ability to set their own communication address, e.g. SMA and Kyocera /
PowerLynx, are listed in random order or in the ascending order of their serial numbers.
This order should then be changed to the actual installed order.
The order should be changed immediately after inverter detection, as the data relating to the inverter can-
not be deleted or switched to the new number afterwards.
How to assign a new number:
•
Touch the input box for the New Number
The virtual keyboard appears.
•
Enter the desired communication address and confirm with OK.
Changing the name

that is unique and meaningful, as the it will be appearing in numerous selection lists and displays.
Procedure
In order to change the inverter name:
•
Touch the input box for the Name
The virtual keyboard appears.
•
Enter the desired name and confirm with OK.
•
Touch Save and then Next to go to the next dialog.
Entering a pulse factor (only for S0 meter)
In the standard setting, most meters send 1000 pulses/kWh over the S0 output. The pulse factor of the
Solar-Log™ must be the same as the pulse factor of the connected meter.
Note
The pulse factor of Solar Log 1000 and of the S0 meter must be set to the same value.
