5 MONITORING AND DATA TRANSMISSION
5.1 User’s Interface Mode
WARNING: The RS-485 cable must provide at least 600V insulation.
The AURORA inverter operates automatically and needs no particular supervision. If
the turbine speed is not enough to generate power for the grid, the inverter disconnects
automatically and goes into the standby mode.
The operating cycle is resumed automatically when the turbine speed and therefore the
input voltage become high enough. This is indicated by the LEDs.
The AURORA inverters can provide operational data in the following ways:
¾ LED indicators
¾ Operational data on the LCD display
¾ Data transmission on a dedicated serial RS-485 line. Data can be collected by a
PC or a data logger equipped with an RS-485 port. If an RS-485 line is used, it
may be convenient to use the AURORA RS-485/RS232 Serial Interface
Converter model number PVI-RS232485. An optional AURORA Easy Control
data logger is also available.
¾ Data transmission via a USB cable. This type of connection is typically used
when monitoring a single inverter and for maintenance purposes. To connect the
USB cable, remove the waterproof plug at the bottom end of the inverter’s right
wall (Fig.16).
