P H O T O V O LTAIC – HYBRID
POWER SYSTEM CONTROLLER

Medium to Large Size Systems

THE MPR-9400 PV CONTROLLER is your TOTAL PV controller solution for your
telecommunication, residential and hybrid power needs. TOTAL because we put the
most advanced and innovative features in our basic to advanced controller systems.
The MPR-9400 addresses the TOTAL needs of your batteries as well as your loads.

THE MPR-9400 provides dramatically reduced maintenance costs as well as increased
s u rvivability at your sites.

Remote Communication

The M P R - 9 4 0 0 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 M P R C O M M s o f t w a re package OR communications can be accomplished
via the R S 2 3 2 serial interface through your communication equipment to retrieve the system’s status. This
p rovides 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 off e r. This communication package allows you to fully monitor and
c o n t rol 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
p rogrammed 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 D ATA LOGGING option allows the user to completely analyze the systems perf o rmance, b a t t e ry condition
and functionality of their PV system. After down loading the data logging file, either locally or re m o t e l y, you
can produce the needed graphs. These graphs will visually allow you to easily analyze the perf o rmance of the
power system.

T h e re 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:

• B a t t e ry voltages, Battery amp hours, Battery current, PV currents, PV amp hours, GEN/rectifier amps,

G E N / rectifier amp hours, GEN run time, Load currents, Load amp hours, Battery and controller
t e m p e r a t u res, Solar irradiance, alarm and fault conditions

M e m o ry - 1 or 2 MB - 200 days to 5+ years of data

Communication Software

K S I ’s new Visual Basic s o f t w a re package will enable the user to communicate with the M P R - 9 4 0 0 u s i n g
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 re p resentation 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.
