Remote data communications and data logging features can easily be added to transform your Fronius IG inverter into a sophisticated data acquisition system and weather monitoring station.
Fronius IG.access
Easy to use analysis software for your PC. From simple to sophisticated; you can view, print and export your system data in unlimited ways. Fronius IG.access is bundled together with your Fronius IG DatCom System at no additional cost.
Requirements:
-
Pentium 266 MHz or higher

Plug-n-Play Components
The DatCom’s modular design allows you to purchase only what you need. The fully Plug-n-Play components make for a simple and quick installation that can be expanded, changed or moved to another system at any time. With flexibility built in by design, future developments are already compatible.
Datalogger Box
One Datalogger Box is required per DatCom system. The Datalogger coordinates data traffic and ensures that even large quantities of data are obtained and distributed flawlessly. It also stores the data collected from all Fronius IG inverters and any sensors in your weather station. Connection to a PC or an external modem allows you to monitor your PV system from anywhere in the world.
Sensor Box
A Sensor Box is required for use with environmental or other sensors used in your data acquisition. Each Sensor Box allows connection of up to six sensors:
-
2 temperature channels (PT 1000)
-
1 irradiance channel (Voltage input 0–1 V)
-
2 digital inputs
-
1 standard 20 mA current interface |
