Three topologies of ethernet connection to the router are available:
Ring configuration
ROUTER
PVS-120.0
PVS-120.0
PVS-120.0
The ring conguration is the preferrable way to connect the units in order to allow reaching
inverters in case of single inverter fault.
In case inverters are connected to the networking switch with a ring topology is recommended
to enable SPT protocol on the switch (Spanning Tree Protocol SPT (IEEE 802.1D) is enabled
by default on inverters).
Daisy chain configuration
ROUTER
PVS-120.0
PVS-120.0
PVS-120.0
Star configuration
ROUTER
PVS-120.0
PVS-120.0
PVS-120.0
On each conguration of connection the maximum length of the cable
must be 100m maximum between inverter – inverter and inverter –
switch.
For further information on the Ethernet connection refer to the Local Area Network standard
IEEE802.3
Please refer to Aurora Vision documents available on ABB website for
further information how to get an Aurora Vision account for remotely
monitoring and managing the installed solar assets.
No initial setup is required to start data transmission to Aurora Vision.
