Installation & Operation Manual

Connecting the Ethernet Cable to the Internet

Use the following steps to complete the connection of the Data Monitoring Module:

1. Route the Ethernet (CAT5) cable from the Internet-enabled router, at the gland plate

location on the upper right side of the inverter, using the proper conduit and hub con-

nectors. Refer to section

4.4 Conduit Entry

for instructions on how to properly use

gland plates.

2. Plug the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port on the Comm X PCB located in the

Data Monitoring Section. Refer to the following gure.

When the Internet connection is established, go to www.mypvpower.com to register

the inverter and begin using the monitoring tools. Contact PV Powered if additional

information is needed on how to use this online tool.

Advanced Networking and Troubleshooting

All PV Powered commercial inverters come standard with an Ethernet port that is

intended to be connected to the Internet. The PV Powered commercial inverter operates

as an Internet appliance. The inverter communicates with the PV Powered Data Center

using https (port 443). Communications is one way – the inverter only communicates

externally to the PV Powered Data Center. Typically the inverter will post 1Kb to 2Kb of

data via web service call to the data center every 15 minutes. If there is an inverter fault,

the inverter may post data more frequently for a short period of time.

Below is a list of requirements to establish inverter communications with the PV Powered

Data Center. Connectivity must be established before registration on www.mypvpower.

com is attempted.
