About this app
SolarMON allows Real-Time monitoring of your SolarEdge PV solar system and can be used alongside with the SolarEdge monitoring portal or App.==== NOTE: to use SolarMON you must enable "MODBUS over TCP" on your inverter. Please read the details below! ====
This is the Try-Version. You can tryout SolarMON with your PV system for 7 days after installation without any limitation. After that an information screen is shown every now and then. If you like SolarMON you can buy the PRO version which has no limitations. New features are only released in the PRO version.
Features
=======
In contrast to the SolarEdge monitoring SolarMON connects directly via your local LAN to the Inverter and reads the real time data directly from it, totally cloud free!
This gives you a couple of advantages:
1) No delay! The data is Real-Time. SolarMON supports updates down to every second, giving you exact inside what your Solar System is producing this very moment.
2) It works even when your Internet is down or you do not have internet connection available at your installation side.
3) No dependency on a cloud servers. You do not share data with anybody and no cloud server that can be down letting you without a clue how much your Solar System is producing. This is especially important for users who have inverters without a display.
4) SolarMON shows you a lot of data that is not available in the SolarEdge monitoring, e.g. simple PV excess production view, temperature of your inverter, state of health of your battery, per-inverter view etc. Check out the screenshots.
Setup
=====
SolarMON supports up to three inverters and one high-voltage battery connected directly to one of the SolarEdge inverters.
SolarMON can be used if
1) at least one of your inverters is connected to your local network (LAN)
2) and has MODBUS over TCP option enabled (unfortunately its disabled by default)
3) and your inverter is SetApp configured or for LCD configured inverters has at least Firmware version 3.x or newer
Your smartphone must be on the same local network in order to access your inverter, e.g. on the WiFi of your local network.
For more details on setting up SolarMON please see the detailed "Setup Instructions" in the App under the main menu or here http://www.abare.de/docs/SolarMON-SetupInstructions.pdf
