Energy meter | Selection of connected energy meter. |
Sensor position | Select the position of the energy meter fitted in the building services. The energy meter must be installed at the grid connection point (position 2). Position 1 (home consumption path) is not possible. Grid connection point = position 2 Energy meter connection |
Limitation of active power to [W] (configurable without service code) | Set the max. feed-in capacity. Requirements relating to this are generally specified by the energy supply company (e.g. a limitation to 70 %). The inverter's max. power serves as the default. Use the calculator to easily calculate the reduction. |
Activate the function for receiving broadcast control signals | If there is a ripple control receiver connected to another inverter's digital inputs, the signals for active and reactive power control can be allocated to all inverters in the local area network (LAN) by means of UDP broadcast. A local energy manager can also generate signals for active and reactive power control in the local area network. Activated: The inverter is controlled by means of a ripple control receiver connected to another inverter. Deactivated (default): The signals are not evaluated. The inverter is not controlled by means of a ripple control receiver connected to another inverter. |
