Operations Related to the Advanced User
If you log in to the app as Advanced User, you can set grid parameters, protection parameters, and feature parameters for the SUN2000.
Setting Grid Parameters
Procedure
- Choose to access the parameters setting screen.Figure 7-7 Grid parameters (advanced user)
Parameters
No. |
Parameter |
Description |
---|---|---|
1 |
Grid Code |
Set this parameter based on the grid code of the country or region where the inverter is used and the inverter application scenario. |
2 |
Isolation settings |
Set the working mode of the inverter based on the grounding status at DC side and the connection to the power grid. |
Setting Protection Parameters
Procedure
- Choose to go to the parameter setting screen.Figure 7-8 Protection parameters (advanced user)
Parameter
No. |
Parameter |
Description |
---|---|---|
1 |
Insulation resistance protection threshold (MΩ) |
To ensure device safety, the inverter detects the insulation resistance of the input side with respect to ground when it starts a self-check. If the detected value is less than the preset value, the inverter does not connect to the grid. |
Setting Feature Parameters
Procedure
- Choose to access the settings screen.Figure 7-9 Feature parameters (advanced user)
Parameters
No. |
Parameter |
Description |
Remarks |
---|---|---|---|
1 |
MPPT multi-peak scanning |
When the inverter is used in scenarios where PV strings are greatly shaded, set this parameter to Enable, and then the inverter will perform MPPT scanning at regular intervals to locate the maximum power. |
- |
2 |
MPPT multi-peak scan interval (min) |
Specifies the MPPT scanning interval. |
This parameter is displayed when MPPT multi-peak scanning is set to Enable. |
3 |
RCD enhancement |
RCD refers to the residual current of the inverter to the ground. To ensure device and personal safety, RCD should be limited to the specified value in the standard. If an AC switch with a residual current detection function is installed outside the inverter, this function should be enabled to reduce the residual current generated when the inverter is running, thereby preventing the AC switch from misoperations. |
- |
4 |
Night-time reactive power output |
In some specific application scenarios, a power grid company requires that the inverter can perform reactive power compensation at night to ensure that the power factor of the local power grid meets requirements. |
This parameter is displayed when Isolation settings is set to Input ungrounded, with TF. |
5 |
PID protection at night |
When the inverter outputs reactive power at night and this parameter is set to Enable, the inverter will shut down automatically if it detects abnormal status of the PID compensation. |
- |
6 |
Power quality optimization mode |
If this parameter is set to Enable, the inverter output current harmonics will be optimized. |
- |
7 |
PV module type |
This parameter is used to set different types of PV modules and the shutdown time of the concentration PV module. If the concentration PV modules are shaded, the power drops drastically to 0 and the inverter shuts down. The energy yield would be affected since it takes too long for the power to resume and inverter to restart. The parameter does not need to be set for crystalline silicon and filmy PV modules. |
|
8 |
Built-in PID compensation direction |
When the external PID module compensates the PID voltage for the PV system, set Built-in PID compensation direction to the actual compensation direction of the PID module so that the inverter can output reactive power at night. |
- |
9 |
String connection mode |
Specifies the connection mode of PV strings. |
|
10 |
Automatic OFF due to communication interrupted |
The standards of certain countries and regions require that the inverter must shut down after the communication is interrupted for a certain time. |
If Automatic OFF due to communication interrupted is set to Enable and the inverter communication is interrupted for a specified time (set by Communication interruption duration), the inverter will automatically shut down. |
11 |
Automatic ON due to communication resumed |
If this parameter is set to Enable, the inverter automatically starts after communication recovers. If this parameter is set to Disable, the inverter needs to be started manually after communication recovers. |
This parameter is displayed when Automatic OFF due to communication interrupted is set to Enable. |
12 |
Communication interruption duration (min) |
Specifies the duration for determining communication interruption. Used for automatic shutdown for protection in case of communication interruption. |
- |
13 |
Soft start/boot time (s) |
Specifies the duration for the power to gradually increase when the inverter starts. |
- |
14 |
Shutdown gradient (%/s) |
Specifies the power change speed when the inverter shuts down. |
- |
15 |
Night-time hibernation |
The inverter monitors PV strings at night. If this parameter is set to Enable, the monitoring function of the inverter will hibernate at night to reduce power consumption. |
- |
16 |
MBUS communication |
For inverters that support RS485 communication and MBUS communication, you are advised to set this parameter to Disable to reduce power consumption. |
- |
17 |
Delay upgrade |
This parameter is mainly used in the upgrade scenarios where the PV power supply is disconnected at night due to no sunlight or unstable at dawn or dusk due to poor sunlight. |
After the inverter starts to upgrade, if Delay upgrade is set to Enable, the upgrade package is loaded first. After the PV power supply recovers and the activation conditions are met, the inverter automatically activates the upgrade. |
18 |
RS485-2 communication |
If this parameter is set to Enable, the RS485-2 port can be used. If the port is not used, you are advised to set this parameter to Disable to reduce power consumption. |
- |
19 |
Duration for determining short-time grid disconnection (ms) |
The standards of certain countries and regions require that the inverter should not disconnect from the power grid if the power grid experiences a short-time failure. After the fault is rectified, the inverter output power needs to be quickly restored. |
