A. Product Description
The PVI-AEC-EVO is a monitoring and checking system for photovoltaic systems made with Power-One Aurora
products.
The product allows to acquire parameters from the inverter and string-comb (in accordance with the design of the
centralinvertermonitoringsystem)throughtheRS485linewith the Power-Oneproprietary protocol.
The system is equipped with two equivalent RS485 ports and each of them allows a maximum of 62 string inverters
or6255kW conversionmodulestobeacquired.
The system is equipped with three analog inputs for the connection of sensors for the measurement of
environmentalparameters:
The system also has six digital inputs for acquiring state signals (for example auxiliary contacts of power switches)
whichareassociatedwithstatealarmconditions.
With respect to the user interface,the system is equipped with a 2x16 character display and four keys as well as an
integratedwebserver with htm pageswhich areaccessiblethroughLANconnection.
The initial system configuration (check that the inverter parameters are acquired,analog inputs configuration,LAN
network parameters configuration) can be carried out completely through the display and keys;for displaying the
detailed parameters of the inverters and/or of the string-combs, as well as for the advanced configurations it is
necessary toaccessthepagesof the integratedwebserver.
The PVI-AEC-EVO works together with a free web portal service:The system periodically transmits the data to the
portal management server and graphically shows the data on web pages which are accessible through an account
thatcanberequestedfromPower-Onecustomerservice.
The portal can also be used for sending alarm, report and FW update notification emails:The system FW can be
updateddirectly through the portal withoutthe need for technical interventiononsite.
TheFWcanalso be updatedlocally without connectingtotheportal.
