Monitoring Portal REFULOG
1.1 General Information

Any operator of a photovoltaic plant focuses his attention on the yield of the plant. He is therefore primarily interested in ensuring and monitoring the operability of the plant. To facilitate remote monitoring of system performance and vital statistics, we have established our internet-based monitoring portal REFULOG BASIC. This portal allows you to make comprehensive evaluations and comparisons. For example, you can compare predicted and actual plant yields given insolation and temperature data from field located sensors. Wherever you have access to the internet, you just have to enter your login data to monitor your photovoltaic plant. The following advantages are offered by REFULOG No additional data logger required Configuration of plants and subplants: easy incorporation of the REFUSOL inverters through a unique activation code, location data, plant-specific data, photo of the plant Display of current parameters for each plant and each inverter: overall yields, daily yields (absolute and standardized), AC/DC output (absolute and normalized), AC/DC voltage, AC/DC current, AC frequency, device temperature, and additionally insolation and cell temperature values utilizing sensors (not included). Display of the plants and inverters in clearly arranged lists for easy comparison Graphical and tabular evaluation of historic data (day, month, year and overall views, display of all plant and inverter parameters, combination of several channels in one diagram by means of a user configurable display) Customizable user interface Overview of plant locations on an interactive map Multilingual capability of the entire application with location specific presentation of numerical values and date formats

2 First steps
2.1 Hardware Installation
REFULOG BASIC is an internet-based monitoring portal for photovoltaic plants. You can customize your hardware and network connection, depending on the number of REFUSOL inverters existing in the local network and depending on the structure of an existing network (LAN) if any. Configuration of the network requires special IT knowledge. Please consult your network administrator or contact your IT provider. Network hardware is not contractually part of REFULOG.
2.2 Application for the activation code

An activation code will be supplied when REFULOG is ordered for an inverter. The purchase order should include the inverter serial number and the installer / dealer location. Coordinate REFUlog orders with your sales representative.
2.3 Network Configuration

To configure the REFUsol inverters, you require the following data: Usable unassigned IP address(es) Subnet mask IP address of the standard gateway / router address of the router Port 80 must be enabled on the router
Network settings determine:

Select in Windows XP "the DOS Command Prompt"Click Start Menu, and Porgrams/accessories:
Fig. 1: Starting Command Prompt Windows XP
Select in Windows 7 the"DOS Command Prompt"
Fig. 2: Starting Command Prompt Windows 7
Click Start Menu, type cmd in the search box, hold down the Shift key and right-click on cmd.exe. Choose Run as administrator from the context menu.
At the prompt type "ipconfig /all", so you get the network assigned IP addresses and configuration.
Fig. 3: Connection adresses
Write down the following settings from your router: Default(Standard) Gateway: 192.168.230.17 Subnet Mask: 255.255.254.0
With this information, select the IP address for each inverter, keeping the same format as the Standard Gateway. For example: Inverter 1: Inverter 2: 192.168.230.200 192.168.230.201
2.4 IP Address setting on the inverter

Enter the inverter password by following the menu tree below:
This allows you to change your network settings, you must enter the standard password 72555 (numbers are entered in reverse order: 5 - 5 - 5 - 2 - 7)
Enter the IP address of the inverter, which you have selected. 10,104,120,200
10
Subnetmask:
255.255.254.0
Enter your Standardgateway 192.168.230.17
Now you have to activate the portal settings
Once the settings are applied, the inverter will automatically power cycle.
11
2.5 Inverter configurations test

To ensure that the inverter is configured correctly, you have to enter the IP address from the inverter into the browser. If the browser locates the inverter, you have everything configured properly.
