Current values menu

The different statistics show the user the current energy values on the AC and DC side for the daily, monthly, annual and total yield. Detailed information can be displayed by expanding the statistics.

PV generator

Shows the generated voltage, current and energy of the PV generators per DC input.

Parameter	Explanation
DC input x	Shows the generated voltage, current and power of the PV generators per DC input.

Inverter

Shows the current status of the inverter, current performance data of the grid side (AC) and how the energy is distributed to the phases.

Parameter	Explanation
Status	Inverter operational status. For more information, see Operational status (display)
Digital inputs	Signal status of digital interface terminal for ripple control receiver (input 1-4). The display shows whether the feed-in is currently being limited, e.g. by the energy supplier or by an external battery management system. Settings, e.g. for user-defined active/reactive power reduction, can be configured by going to Service menu > Digital inputs. Why active power control?
Output power	Shows how much inverter power is being fed into the home network.
Grid frequency	Shows the current grid frequency.
Cos phi	Indicates the current power factor (cos phi).
Limitation on	Shows the current power curtailment setting. If an energy meter (e.g. a KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter) is fitted in the house grid and power limitation is set, the active power is dynamically limited taking home consumption into consideration. This means that in addition to the set power curtailment, the home consumption is added up to the maximum power limit of the inverter.
Phase x	Shows the power values per phase (x = 1, 2 or 3)

House consumption

Display of the current home consumption and the sources from which home consumption is covered.

INFO

In a device network comprising multiple KOSTAL inverters, the data is merged in the portal. Correct and complete visualisation takes place exclusively in the KOSTAL Solar Portal and in the KOSTAL Solar App and not in the individual inverter.

Parameter	Explanation
Current home consumption covered by	Shows the home consumption and the source from which it is currently covered.

Grid

Shows the current performance data of the grid side (AC).

Parameter	Explanation
Grid	Feed-in: PV energy is fed into the public grid. Consumption: Energy is purchased from the public grid to cover home consumption.

Battery

If a battery is connected to the inverter (only possible if DC3 has been released), the current battery values are displayed.

INFO

If all values are at zero, the battery is in sleep mode. You can check the status of the battery by going to Current values > Inverter.

Parameter	Explanation
Status	Charge: The battery is being charged. Discharge: Energy is being drawn from the battery.
Battery status	Normal: Normal state Equalisation charge: The battery is charged from the grid for protection. Deep discharge protection: The battery is charged from the grid to protect against deep discharge. Ext. battery control: The battery is regulated via an external control system. Battery sleep mode: If the battery charging status falls below the configured minimum SoC, this status is displayed and the battery is disconnected from the system. As soon as sufficient excess PV power is available, sleep mode is cancelled and the battery is switched on again. Service charging: Service charging can only be started by the installer.
Voltage	Shows the battery's charge/discharge voltage.
Current	Shows the battery's charge/discharge current.
Power	Shows the battery's charge/discharge power.
Charging status	Shows the battery's charging status in %.
Charging cycles	Shows the battery's charging cycles.
