Backup Power with Smart Energy Management - System Configurations

2 To set a minimum battery charge level, so that the battery will always have energy stored in case backup power is needed,

do the following:

 Select Power Control  Energy Manager  Storage Control. The following is displayed:

 Select Backup RSVD and set the required level as percentage of the battery capacity. Set %PV according to

user requirement.

3 After configuring the meter, the battery and backup power, proceed with Smart Energy Management application

configuration for maximize self-consumption or for charge/discharge profile programming.

► To set up Maximize Self-consumption:

1 Select Power Control  Energy Manager  Energy Ctrl  Max Self-Consume.

► To set up Charge/Discharge Profile Programming:

1 Select Power Control  Energy Manager  Energy Ctrl  Time of Use.

2 Profile loading can be done remotely from the monitoring portal or locally from the inverter using a micro-SD card. Refer to

Appendix A – Creating a Charge/Discharge Profile on page 32 for information on creating a charge/discharge profile file.

3 For remote loading:

 In the monitoring portal, click the Admin icon and select the Energy Manager tab.

 Select Set profile from server and from the drop down list select a profile. If no available profile is suitable,

contact SolarEdge support.

 Press Save and in the pop-up window select Yes to apply the profile. The profile will be loaded to the

inverter upon next connection (normally within 5 minutes; if communications are down it will be uploaded

when communications are restored)

NOTE

If the system is connected to the server with a GSM modem and with a SolarEdge data plan, loading can take place up

to 4 hours after applying from portal.

4 For local loading using a micro-SD card:

 Select Energy Manager  Set Calendar.

 Insert the card with the profile file to the slot on the inverter communication board.

 Select Load SD.

5 If the charge/discharge profile includes battery charge from the AC grid, this must be enabled, either from the inverter or as

part of the profile file. Refer to the Appendix A – Creating a Charge/Discharge Profile for information on enabling this as part

of the file.

NOTE

Use battery charge from AC grid only if permitted by local regulations.

► To enable from the inverter:

1 Select Energy Manager  Storage Control.
