To search for inverters, please proceed as follows (WEB'log web interface):
- Determine the manufacturer of the inverters to be scanned, or the type of inverter.
- Use this link to check if the WEB'log supports the inverter manufacturer or type.
-
Check whether the correct driver is available on the data logger.Under Admin-Support -> Application Manager -> "Loadable Application Images" area you can see the manufacturer:
- Determine which protocol the inverters use to communicate (RTU or TCP).
- Check or set the communication settings including the address on the inverter.
- Establish the bus cabling between the inverter and data logger (RS485 or Ethernet).
-
Scan for the inverter:
- Proprietary protocol (under Admin measurement -> Inverter)
- TCP (under Admin measurement -> Inverter)
-
Modbus Protocol
- Select the WR type under Admin measurement -> Modbus devices -> General configuration -> Area "Available device types".
-
Enter and scan the address range under Admin measurement -> Modbus devices -> Device configuration under "Scan for serial devices".
Then assign the types to the address.
- Under Online values -> Inverter details you can now check the values of the inverter.
