WiFi Datalogger for PowMr RS232 SmartESS Solar Inverters Remote Monitoring of PV System Production Control
This WiFi datalogger serves as a communication module between a solar or hybrid inverter and a mobile application, allowing detailed oversight of the entire photovoltaic system. With internet connectivity, it provides an instant overview of energy production, consumption, battery status, and current system performance. The device is designed for users who wish to have full control over their PV system from anywhere.
The datalogger connects directly to the communication port of the inverter using an RJ45 network connector and does not require any external power supply. Once connected to the home WiFi network, it allows data transmission to the cloud interface of the SmartESS application, where information is clearly displayed in the form of graphs, statistics, and status reports. The module is not a standalone controller or inverter, but purely a monitoring and control element.
In the application, users can monitor not only the current performance but also historical data, daily and total production overviews, consumption, and energy flows between panels, batteries, the grid, and loads. Included in the features is an alarm system that alerts users to abnormal conditions, faults, or exceeding set limits. Advanced users will appreciate the ability to remotely change the operating parameters of the inverter.
- Wireless WiFi data transmission to the SmartESS application
- Compatibility with selected PowMr solar and hybrid inverters
- Online monitoring of production, consumption, and battery status
- Remote setting of inverter parameters
- Display of alarms, error states, and operational diagnostics
- Support for iOS and Android devices
- Powered directly from the inverter without an external source
- Connection via RJ45 communication port
- Package contents: 1x WiFi datalogger module
The module connects using an RJ45 communication cable to the appropriate COM port of the inverter. After powering on the inverter, the SmartESS application is downloaded to the mobile phone, a user account is created, and the datalogger is added to the system using a QR code or identification number. Subsequently, the WiFi connection is set up according to the application's instructions.
With this module, you gain complete oversight of the photovoltaic system without the need for physical presence at the device. It is an ideal addition for both domestic and smaller commercial installations, where effective energy management and long-term operational oversight are emphasised.
