Wi-Fi Remote monitoring kit for Iconica hybrid inverters (with Email communication)
SKU:IC-WIFI
This intelligentWi-Fi remote monitoring kit uses Wi-Fi connectivity to enable advanced remotemonitoringof anIconica hybrid inverter from any location in the world.
The Wi-Fi card collects data from the Iconica inverter and transmits it to the user usingthe preferred method from the following twooptions:
1) Short-distance mode: By creating a Wi-Fi network which the user can access from a nearby location (within approx 10-50m radius depending on obstructions)on a mobile device
2)Long-distance mode: By connecting toan existing broadbandnetwork, where inverter data is transmitted toan online server,enabling the user to viewdata from any location via an internet browser.
In case oflong distance monitoring thedataisaccessedby logging intoan online portal, DataCenter, which features an extensive range of options for monitoring system data. This Wi-Fi kit also has the ability to send email notifications to one or multiple email addresses, alertingthe user of alarm events or system reminders.
Kit includes:
- Wi-Fi card and unit (with antenna)
- DB9 to RJ45 cable for connection to the Iconica inverter
Additionally required:
- Broadband network (only if long-distance remote monitoring is preferred)
- 12V power supply (mains to 12V DC power adapter) with some inverters
This kit is compatible with Iconica hybrid inverters. All of our Iconica hybrid inverters can power this Wi-Fi remote monitoring kit directly using the RJ45 cable (included with this kit), except for the Iconica 5500W grid-tie inverter which will require a mains to 12Vdc/1A power adapter with a 5.5/2.5mm (5.5mm outside diameter, 2.5mm inside diameter) DC power jack; this will need to be sourced separately in order to enable operation of this Wi-Fi kit with the grid-tie inverter.
Online data portal:
This Wi-Fi kit intelligently communicates with an Iconica inverter to transmit data to the online portal, DataCenter. After creating a username and password, the user will be able to login froma mobile phone / tablet /PCto remotely view systeminformation. Options for remote monitoring include:
-Live in-depth data monitoring: View up-to-date system information (refreshed every 5 minutes) including: PV input voltage, battery voltage, charging current, grid voltage, grid output voltage, AC output power, output load percentage, total AC output (in VA or as a percentage value), nominal rated input voltage /output voltage and frequency / battery voltage
- Detailed datalogs: Historical system data and alarm history is recorded and stored indefinitely. It is available to view for any given date range over the inverter's lifespan. The specific time and dates of each recorded value / alarm eventare also displayed.
-3D infographics and diagrams: A system status diagramillustratesallconnected system components (solar panel, load, battery. For certain Iconica models, bar charts display total generated power(hourly, daily, monthly or annual data).
- Regional monitoring:Option to group together andmonitor multiple Iconica invertersbased on location, allowing the user to viewcombined data forinvertersin a particular region, such as: PV input power, grid voltage and battery capacity percentage. (One Wi-Fi kit required per inverter).
- Multiple user access:Option for the administrator to create and manageseveral accounts for other authorised users toaccess the online portal and view /program settings for the assignedinverter. Additional users can alsoreceive email status updates.
Email notifications:
The user can choose to be notified via email when any system faults or warnings are detected.
Compatibility:
ThisWi-Fi remote monitoring kit is designed for use with Iconica off-grid hybrid inverters and Iconica grid-tie hybrid inverters. It is not suitable for use with any other inverter.
