April 18, 201610 yr Thanks Mark. At last I have my outputs going out and now joined the team. Thanks to jdp and AICC Fransepondok - PVoutput
April 18, 201610 yr A question for jdp, I can't find a way to display the charging amps on my emoncms dashboard, do I miss something or is it not available? Fransepondok - Emoncms
April 18, 201610 yr What amps are you talking about. Please post all your questions about AICC in the support Thread as then it will all be together for other AICC user. If you are talking about Batter amps just multiply batter volts with battery watts on the emon side. I made it so you can get to all the values with the least amount of internet traffic. Cheers.
April 22, 201610 yr Being a bit dof but I know I need 5 outputs before I can join a team. Been live for 3 days however on map etc says 0 outputs. What is an output? Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

I'm also new to PVOutput and have 2 outputs at this stage. If understand it correctly an output is PV/energy data for a specific date - either a summary for the day or multiple data uploads throughout the day e.g. at 5 minute intervals. If you are only up for 3 days and you have uploaded daily data (outputs) for those 3 days, you'll need to upload 2 more day's worth of data before you can join the Southern Africa team.
April 22, 201610 yr Author Yes. You can't join a team until you have 5 outputs (days). I think it is to avoid extra sites connecting just for a "test". I had to have 30 days before I could create the team...
April 22, 201610 yr Sorted out my issue. A duplicate system with the same name I had to decommission first. Joined the team. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk
April 23, 201610 yr Thanks. Working perfectly and using real time weather from my weather station as well. Had me scratching my grey hair a bit at a point tho.
April 23, 201610 yr The SA team better watch out. Tomorrow I am installing a green monster. Then the efficiency should go above 4 every day. But only after i update my software to talk to the Infini.
April 24, 201610 yr @jdp - For the most part it is the same as the Axpert. In case you need, attached is the command info. Affini.pdf
April 24, 201610 yr Jaco So will you modify AICC to communicate with the Infini? If so, it might be useful to also investigate communication via SNMP interface. I now have my monitoring laptop positioned remotely. Much more convenient, no more remote desktop. I think you'll love the Infini. Let me know how the install goes. You doing it yourself or having it done by a contractor? If your initial install was good I think it's almost a matter of plug and play. I had some issues with mine which Mike sorted out. The inverter did not require any setting changes or setup, it just worked. C

I did not have a 5K to sniff, I had to try various scenarios and Mike had to test all of them until I got my first successful reply. Thanks again Mike. They've appended a kind of checksum in front of all the commands as well as query and setting indicators, and that is apart from the standard crc checksum appended to the end of the commands.
April 27, 201610 yr Hi All, I Just joined the Southern Africa Team Great to see all the other systems out there!

So Edmund made the reader side work so that not only does it upload to the database, but also to PVOutput ... for Voltronic. But, as always(!), to make it so that other devices data can also be sent, is a lieetle bit more work.
June 16, 201610 yr Looking at todays generation on pvoutput.org under live outputs I'm intrigued how Christiaan Home generated 91.177kWh from a 10.620kW system in winter. Something wrong there. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

Sometimes due to poor weather my internet is disrupted and the same happens to my system. So long as data logging starts before sunrise PV Output seems reasonably accurate.

Explains the hyper efficiency.

If you upload totalized data the missing data during Internet dropouts doesn't cause any data loss, PVOutput calculates the averages from consecutive totalizer values. My internet has been real shaky the last couple of weeks and even if I'm offline for hours the data remains fairly accurate. C
