3. Configuring the PV Plant
3.1 Overview
The system design can be carried out via the internet using PV-Clinics Editor software. The same software
can be used to setup and update any number of PV plants at different locations.
To setup a new plant you will require:
• A PC with PV-Clinic Editor software installed
• The IP address of the PV Plant control room computer
• The MySQL Database administrator password
• A good name for the database (usually the site location)
• A diagram of the communications network that shows IP Addresses and Modbus Addresses
• Modbus Address Maps for any custom Modbus devices to be added to the network. Contact Weid-
muller technical assistance (with part and model number) if you need assistance. Many devices have
already been mapped and saved as .xml files. These files can be added to the library of custom
devices for the PV-Clinics Editor program.
3.2 Install PV-Clinic Editor
There are no options to select, simply run the file PV-Clinic Editor.msi on the designers PC.
