Remote Communication
The MPR-9400 can be equipped with an optional 14,400 baud MODEM which will allow the user to dial the remote site's MPR-9400 using our MPRCOMM software package OR communications can be accomplished via the RS232 serial interface through your communication equipment to retrieve the system’s status. This provides a user friendly interface to our controllers via your personal computer. This option is one of the most valuable features the MPR series has to offer. This communication package allows you to fully monitor and control your system as if you were physically at the site. Imagine the money and time that you will save by not having to travel to your remote power system!
The MPR-9400 will actually call your computer if an alarm is activated. The call out function can be user programmed to call your host computer if a High voltage alarm, Low voltage alarm, generator failure or low fuel level etc. occurs. These call out alarms can be custom configured by KSI.
MPRCOMM can automatically call one or multiple sites, down load the data, store the data in a database and then hang up. This automatic communication can be programmed by the user to occur once a day or other time periods.
Data Logging
The DATA LOGGING option allows the user to completely analyze the systems performance, battery condition and functionality of their PV system. After down loading the data logging file, either locally or remotely, you can produce the needed graphs. These graphs will visually allow you to easily analyze the performance of the power system.
There are two DATA LOGGING versions:
1)5, 15, 30 or 60 minute programmable averaging sampling times
2)Daily logging of maximum and minimum system values
Logged parameters:
•Battery voltages, Battery amp hours, Battery current, PV currents, PV amp hours, GEN/rectifier amps, GEN/rectifier amp hours, GEN run time, Load currents, Load amp hours, Battery and controller temperatures, Solar irradiance, alarm and fault conditions
Memory - 1 or 2 MB - 200 days to 5+ years of data
Communication Software
KSI’s new Visual Basic software package will enable the user to communicate with the MPR-9400 using Windows 95 and 98 platforms.
The user friendly interface allows all system parameters to be monitored and all set points and controls to be changed. Password protected.
Graphical representation of the DATA LOG can easily be produced by selecting the parameters to be analyzed and selecting the start and end date of the data.
