5. Product Description 5.5.2 DC connections and DC isolating switch 5.5.4 RS485 interface (EIA485) The solar inverter has two RS485 interfaces to which a PC or a monitoring system can be connected. The RS485 interfaces are internally wired 1:1. This means that both RS485 interfaces can be used as an input or an output. If multiple solar inverters are connected together, each solar inverter must have a unique ID (identification number).
6. Operating Behavior 6. 6.1 Operating Behavior General Principle of Operation The solar inverter converts DC electricity into AC electricity, which is then fed into the local power grid. MPP Tracking The solar inverter has an MPP tracker. The MPP (Maximum Power Point) tracker is an automatic function that searches in regular intervals for the operating point with the highest possible power. On the normal setting, the MPP tracker searches the DC input voltage range near the current operating point.
6. Operating Behavior Warning and Error Messages Every warning or error message is stored in the solar inverter with a time stamp. The messages are stored in the event log or in the internal log, depending on the cause of the error. The event log is primarily intended for the installer and should make analyzing and resolving problems easier. The internal log helps Delta Solar Support when analyzing more difficult problems.

Grid Connection DAnGER Danger of death or severe injuries from dangerous voltage ► Disconnect the AC conductor from power before removing or inserting the AC plug. 7.3.1 General Instructions The solar power inverter is connected to the local power grid with an AC connection, see Fig. 7.6, p. 28. Fig. 7.
7. Installation recommend using a 20 A residual current device. However, be sure to always adhere to the specific regulations applicable in your country. 7.3.3 1. The typical leakage current is less than 3.5 mA. Establishing Connection Remove the cable sheath as shown and remove 10 mm of insulation from each wire end. nOTE nOTE Observe the correct polarity of the round plug. An incorrect configuration can destroy the solar inverter.
7. Installation ► Insert the wires of the AC cable into the pin insert connections. Observe the correct phase sequence when doing this. ► Tighten the screws of the pin insert to fix the wires in place. 7.4 Connecting the PV Modules DAnGER Danger of death or severe injuries from dangerous voltage Potentially fatal voltage may be applied to the DC connections of the solar inverter. ► Never disconnect the PV modules when the solar inverter is powered.

Diagnostics and Troubleshooting 12.1 Messages on Current Operating Status The following message categories are defined for displaying the operating status of the solar inverter: Message Category Limited operation External event ● Insulation and grounding failure Internal event Change events Description Non-critical factors that can affect the production results but which are not failures (e.g., self-test).
12. Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Messages on the current operating status are shown by the LEDs and text messages on the display in the 411 Current Overview menu. When an event occurs, the 411 Current Overview menu automatically displays. A brief description of the event is then shown on the fourth display line. 411 Current overview Now: ____W Day: ____Wh External events The software of the solar inverter determines whether a warning is given or a failure occurs.
12. Diagnostics and Troubleshooting 12.2 Analyzing Failures When a warning is given or a failure shown by the LEDs and the 411 Current Overview menu, additional information can be displayed. This is generally divided into two categories: ● External events (incl. insulation and grounding failures) ● Internal events EN The additional information on the failures are logged in two separate menus: ● External events: Menu 480 Ext.

Diagnostics and Troubleshooting 12.3 LEDs Overview of Failure Messages/Troubleshooting Display message Message description Warning ### Fault correction Internal failure ("Warning" + three-digit number) ► Failure ### Internal failure ("Failure" + three-digit number) ► L1 Voltage failure Check the grid frequency shown on the display (412 Current Data AC menu). ► If no voltage is present, check the automatic circuit breaker. DC feed-in failure.
12. Diagnostics and Troubleshooting LEDs Display message Message description PV1 ISO running fail Fault correction Operating insulation <150 kΩ. ► PV1+ Grounding fail PV1- Grounding fail PV1 Voltage too low DC+/DC- not correctly grounded. ► Check the GND connection. The DC voltage is too low. ► L1 power reduction PV1 PW limit to Pn PV1 temp derating Check the insulation resistance at the DC side of the PV modules. Check the PV cell voltage shown on the display (416 Current Data PV menu).
12. Diagnostics and Troubleshooting 12.4 Message Logs 12.4.2 "Internal Events" Log All important events and messages are logged in the solar inverter.

13. Maintenance and Repair 13. Maintenance and Repair DAnGER Risk of death by electrocution Potentially fatal voltage is applied to the solar inverter during operation. This potentially fatal voltage is still present for five minutes after all power sources have been disconnected. ► Never open the solar inverter. The solar inverter contains no components that must be maintained or repaired by the operator or installer. Opening the cover will void the warranty. 14. 14.
