Remote control
Remote control and Profiles
The grid operator/energy supplier can influence the output power of the inverter
by means of remote control. The prerequisite for this is for the inverter to have
an active internet connection.
Parameter Value range Description
Remote control Off Remote control of the inverter is deactiv-
ated.
On Remote control of the inverter is activ-
ated.
Allow remote
control for reg-
ulatory pur-
poses (Techni-
cian)
Deactivated/
Activated
The function Allow remote control for
regulatory purposes may be mandatory
for proper operation of the system. *)
Allow remote
control for Vir-
tual Power
Plants (Cus-
tomer)
Deactivated/
Activated
If the Allow remote control for regulatory
purposes function is enabled (technician
access required), the Allow remote con-
trol for Virtual Power Plants function is
automatically enabled and cannot be dis-
abled. *)
*) Cloud Control
A virtual power plant is an interconnection of several power plant operators to
form a network. This network can be controlled via the cloud over the internet.
The inverter must have an active internet connection for this. System data is
transmitted.
Fronius Solar
API
The Fronius Solar API is an IP-based, open JSON interface. When enabled, IOT
devices on the local network can access inverter information without authentica-
tion. For security reasons, the interface is deactivated at the factory and must be
activated if it is required for a third-party application (e.g. EV charger, smart
home solutions, etc.) or the Fronius Wattpilot.
For monitoring, Fronius recommends using Fronius Solar.web, which provides se-
cure access to inverter status and production information.
When performing a firmware update to version 1.14.x, the setting of the Fronius
Solar API is adopted. The Solar API is activated for systems with a version below
1.14.x. Above this version it is deactivated but can be switched on and off in the
menu.
Activate the Fronius Solar API
Enable the "Activate communication via Solar API" function on the user inter-
face of the inverter in the "Communication" → "Solar API"menu.

vices
This menu displays information about the connections and the current connec-
tion status. In case of problems with the connection, a short error description is
shown.
