Signal Smart Detector
RSD-EYE+
RSD-EYE+ is a small and lightweight multifunctional
handheld detection device for sensing pulse modulation
from the power line communication (PLC) signal between
transmitter and RSD-S-PLC, to ensure compliance to the
SunSpec Alliance Rapid Shutdown protocol. In addition,
the RSD-EYE+ can also be used as a handheld transmit
device, by connecting an optional external DC cable to
send an in-line keep-alive signal to RSD-S-PLC.

After all RSD-S-PLC in the PV system have
been installed and the transmitter is connected
and powered on, place the sensing area on the
RSD-EYE+ within 2cm from the RSD-S-PLC
output powerline. Testing each RSD-S-PLC
with the RSD-EYE+ to confirm the presence of
a keep-alive signal. During the detection, the
“Detected Mode” button B should be hold for
more than 3 seconds, and the yellow power
LED will be lit. When the keep-alive signal is
detected, the detected mode LED will be lit
blue and an audible alert will sound to confirm.
This will hold about 7 seconds even if
RSD-EYE+ leave the detecting area, so during
a new test, wait for the indication disappears
or press the key again.

Confirm the RSD-S-PLC input cables are
connected to PV module output cables, and
its output cables are connected to the
external cable from RSD-EYE+ properly, and
the RSD-S-PLC is on the off state. During the
detection process, the transmission mode
button A should be pressed above 2 seconds,
then the yellow power LED lights on. If the
output voltage detected greater than 20V, the
corresponding transmitted mode LED light
turns green and an audible alert will sound
continually.
