1.1 Background
1 Summarize
As a professional solar, wind power generation system providers, with the strong research and development, design,
production capacity, we always will meet the maximization and diversification demand of user as our service standards.
From 21 century, solar, wind and other renewable clean energy is applied more and more widely, but the existing solar,
wind power generation system generally have the difficult to monitor and maintenance, new generation of
communication type PV power system came into being and solve this kind of problem perfect. WVC Modem is a
important part of communication generation system. The success of research and development of WVC Modem have
provided a reliable relay communication data support for centralized and round-the-clock devices monitoring
management. And the user can through this manual to understanding the detailed of WVC Modem’s use method and
attentions.
1.2 Application Fields and Range
WVC Modem is a special device for communication type generation system and need to match up to communication
Micro inverter and Power Monitoring System for use. It hasn’t compatibility for other company products.
1.3 Copyright statement
WVC Modem is research and development by us. have the ownership and power of interpretation of its English logo,
Chinese label and image identification , and related software intellectual property.
2.1 System Comprehensive description
2 WVC Modem User Manual
WVC Modem is the important component of communication power generating system. According to the applied
characteristics, we design a WVC Modem which can monitoring and manage of 100 pcs micro inverter. 100pcs micro
inverter and one WVC Modem make a group. In the same group, micro inverters and WVC Modem must be installed
inthesame phase circuit,WVC Modem’s standard interface is RS232,If there are no RS232 interface on your computer
you need to buy the USB To RS232 connector then use the USB port to communicate directly.
In the whole power system, WVC Modem system simple structure schemes like below: (detailed insta

Female contact of lunk
Connect to Modem serial port
2. Connect the serial port of the male contact of lunk to computer main chassis’s serial port and tighten the screw on
both ends of the connections, show likes below:
Male contact of lunk
Connect to computer main

3. Connect the power;
4. Finish installation of WVC Modem;
1. Connect the serial port of the female contact of lunk to WVC Modem serial port and tighten the screw on both ends of
the connections, show likes below:
When the micro inverters is less than or equal to 100pcs in generation system, we only need to install one WVC Modem.
The installation is very simple, just need using the serial port to connect the WVC Modem and computer, then plugged in
power. Of course, the first premise is your computer needs a serial port(If there are no RS232 interface on your computer
you need to buy the USB To RS232 connector then use the USB port to communicate directly.). And the details installation
like below:

It is simple to reboot WVC Modem:Turn WVC Modem power off, then wait for seconds to restore power supply;
2.6 Equipment reboot
According to WVC Modem' serial port connection, please DO NOT disconnect or install WVC Modem to keep the
hardware safe when power on. Please refer to the following steps to disconnect:
1. Disconnect WVC Modem power plug;
2.7 Disconnect sequence
First you need to disconnect
the power of Modem
2. Disconnect WVC Modem with serial port line;
3. Disconnect PC with serial port line;
4. WVC Modem disconnected complete;
3. Operational environment & fault handling
3.1 Natural environment
WVC Modem is an ordinary communicational trucking device, and it would not work in good condition, or even be
damaged in a very bad environment. Please note that no high temperature, no high humidity and no ultra‐low
temperature working environment. waterproof boxes needed for outdoor working environment, no direct sunlight
exposure and no extremely cold environment without heat preservation devices.
3.2 Errors handling
How to deal with failing to connect devices and monitoring system online?
There are reasons about failure to connect as the following below, please kindly check:
1. Check the device driver if set up correctly. If use USB TO RS232 it needs to set up the drivers correctly. If not,
it will not work;
2. Check the condition of WVC Modem and confirm the gird power is steady;
3. Check the temperture of the WVC‐Modem . If the temperature is higher ,please shutdown the power and
restart after heat dissipation;
4. All above checked and system online failure still exists, please contact us and we will supply you the
professional tsting to your equipment.
How to deal with one WVC Modem failing to communicate cor rectly in nor mal monitoring processing?
WVC Modem is design for 24‐hour work and long time with thousands times of testing. However, WVC Modem
may not communicate correctly all the time in the bad condition below: high temperature, moisture, signal
interference of wireless and other factors.When it occur to the bad situation, please cut the modem power off
and wait a few minutes and then connect the power, the problem can be solved generally. Or call our local
after‐service branch for support and help after trying several times.
