8.3 Setting the Scaling of the Daily Graph
You can choose between static or dynamic scaling for the daily graph. If static scaling is selected, the

1. Select > Settings > General > Display.

• Enable the Static option.
• Enter the power of your plant in the appropriate text box.
Tip: You can reset the scaling to match the maximum power of your plant's inverter by pressing
the [Reset to plant power] button. This value can deviate from the actual maximum power of
your plant.
