Use the settings of COM1 as an example.
Figure 6-49 COM1- COM1 to COM6 correspond to communications ports COM1–COM3 (SmartLogger1000A and SmartLogger3000) or COM1–COM6 (SmartLogger2000). The default baud rate is 9600 bit/s.
- The SmartLogger3000 expansion module corresponds to communication ports M1.COM1~M1.COM3.
- Set the protocol supported by the RS485 port based on either the protocol supported by the connected device or the status of the device in the network. When the SmartLogger serves as a slave node to interconnect with a third-party device over Modbus-RTU, set Protocol to Modbus-Slave. When the connected solar inverter performs rapid power grid scheduling using both MBUS and RS485, set Protocol to Modbus-Control.
- Parity, Protocol, and Stop bit must be set to the same values for all devices connected to the same RS485 port.
- The baud rate for the RS485 ports of the SmartLogger must be the same as the baud rate for the device that communicates with the SmartLogger.
- 1 ≤ Start address ≤ End address ≤ 247. The address range of the ports can overlap. Set the address range as required. A larger address range requires a longer searching time. The start and end addresses have no impact on the devices that have been connected.
- On the RS485 screen, tap Night Communication Settings to set the parameters for communication at night.
Setting Modbus-RTU Power Meter Parameters
Procedure
- Choose to access the parameter setting screen.Figure 6-50 Power Meter
- Tap target parameters. On the displayed screen, enter relevant information.
Setting Management System Parameters
Procedure
- Choose to access the parameter setting screen.Figure 6-51 Management system
- Set Server to the IP address or domain name of the NMS server.
- When the SmartLogger connects to the Huawei NMS, retain the default value 27250 for Port number. When the SmartLogger connects to a third-party NMS, set Port number according to the server port enabled in the third-party NMS.
- In most cases, set Address mode to Physical address. In this mode, addresses of devices connected to each RS485 port cannot be duplicate. If the devices connected to the six RS485 ports of the SmartLogger have duplicate addresses, set Address mode to Logical address.
- If TLS encryption is set to
, data will be transmitted without being encrypted, which may pose security risks. Therefore, exercise caution when setting this parameter.
- If Secondary challenge authentication is set to
, the result of the second challenge authentication is not checked, which may pose security risks. Therefore, exercise caution when setting this parameter.
Setting Modbus TCP Parameters
Context
Set Modbus-TCP parameters correctly to ensure normal communication between the SmartLogger and a third-party NMS.
Procedure
- Choose to access the parameter setting screen.Figure 6-52 Modbus TCP
- Modbus TCP is a universal standard protocol used to connect to a third-party management system. Because there is no security authentication mechanism, data transmitted by Modbus TCP is not encrypted. To reduce network security risks, the function of connecting to a third-party management system using Modbus TCP is disabled by default. This protocol can transmit the running data and control commands of PV plants, which may cause user data breach and control permission theft. Therefore, exercise caution when using this protocol. Users are liable for any loss caused by the use of this protocol to connect to a third-party management system (non-secure protocol). Users are advised to take measures at the PV plant level to reduce security risks, or use Huawei management system to mitigate the risks.
- If the devices connected to the six RS485 ports of the SmartLogger have duplicate addresses, set Address mode to Logical address.
Setting IEC104 Device Parameters
Procedure
- Choose to access the parameter setting screen.Figure 6-54 IEC104
- Tap target parameters. On the displayed screen, enter relevant information.
- IEC104 is a universal standard protocol used to connect to a third-party management system. Because there is no security authentication mechanism, data transmitted by IEC104 is not encrypted. To reduce network security risks, the function of connecting to a third-party management system using IEC104 is disabled by default. This protocol can transmit the running data and control commands of PV plants, which may cause user data breach and control permission theft. Therefore, exercise caution when using this protocol. Users are liable for any loss caused by the use of this protocol to connect to a third-party management system (non-secure protocol). Users are advised to take measures at the PV plant level to reduce security risks, or use Huawei management system to mitigate the risks.
- You can set the IP whitelist after Linking setting on the Basic parameters screen is enabled.
- On the Transfer table config screen, you can set teleindication and telemetry signals for devices.

- Choose . On the displayed screen, set parameters to remotely shut down solar inverters in dry contact mode.Figure 6-55 Remotely shutting down solar inverters in dry contact mode
Setting FTP Parameters
Context
The FTP function is used to access a third-party NMS. The SmartLogger can report the configuration information and running data of the managed plant system through FTP. The third-party NMS can access Huawei devices with proper configurations.
FTP is a universal standard protocol without any security authentication mechanism. Data transmitted by FTP is not encrypted. To reduce network security risks, the IP address of the connected third-party FTP server is left blank by default. This protocol can transmit the running data of PV plants, which may cause user data breach. Therefore, exercise caution when using this protocol. Users are liable for any loss caused by the enabling of the FTP protocol (non-secure protocol). Users are advised to take measures at the PV plant level to reduce security risks, or use Huawei management system to mitigate the risks
Procedure
- Choose to access the parameter setting screen.Figure 6-56 FTP
- Perform Test transmission to check whether the SmartLogger can report data to the FTP server.
