Signal/Information Value Units Action
RS-232 Data info 23 Energy input/total Ah Ah meter of the energy input members
total since initial commissioning
RS-232 Data info 24 Energy output 24 h Ah Ah meter of the energy output
members total during the period from
00:00 to 23:59
RS-232 Data info 25 Energy output/total Ah Ah meter of the energy output
members total since initial
commissioning
RS-232 Data info 26 Derating Ah 0- Derating not active, 1- Derating
active
RS-232 Data info 27 Checksum A CRC16 checksum is generated. Name:
‘CRC-16-CCITT/openUART’ Width: 16
Direction: right shift Polynomial:
0x8408 CCITT reversed, 2 bytes long,
stored as high-byte, low-byte. The CRC
is calculated with semicolons and
without CR+LF.
RS-232 Data info 28 End of data CR + LF
12.4 Recording data on an SD card (MPPT 6000-M only)
When data logging is activated, separate data logging files are created for each of the following
StecaLink member devices:
n MPPT 6000-M
n MPPT 6000-S
n PA HS400
The data files are stored in a predefined directors structure.
File name structure of the data files
‘StecaLink bus address’
+ ‘-’ + ‘Device name’ + ‘.CSV’
Example: 40-HS400.CSV or 08-MPPTS.CSV
