External battery control via digital inputs
1 | External energy management system (e.g. energy supply company) |
2 | External control box |
3 | Inverter control electronics |
If External battery control via digital inputs is selected, the inverter receives the control signals for charging and discharging the connected battery via the digital inputs of the Smart Communication Board (SCB).
It is important that the digital inputs in the Webserver are configured accordingly.
Internal energy management remains active, but is overridden by the external specifications for charging and discharging capacity.
The following commands are possible:
- Charging/discharging of battery via output specified as a percentage
The specifications of the external provider must be observed.
