Platform 9.11

Jeroen Faes

Highlights

Increased value alarm

Our platform's flexibility in defining alarms based on measured data has been enhanced. Previously, alarms were triggered by setting upper and lower thresholds for monitored values, such as ensuring the battery state of charge stays between 20% and 100%. An alarm would be generated if the value exceeded these boundaries.

Now, we've added the ability to define alarms based on increased values. For instance, certain meters track events such as voltage exceeding 253V with a counter. With this update, our system can trigger an alarm whenever the counter increments, enabling proactive monitoring for such conditions.

CSPI value export

Our Clear Sky Performance Index is one of the best PV panel degradation detection systems on the market. In addition to alerts and API access for CSPI values, users can now export these values as a CSV file for easier analysis and reporting.

Other improvements

  • Our Cloud EMS is getting more robust and now has a fallback mechanism for when forecast values are not available yet.
  • Verifying the connection between a gateway (Communicator) and a modbus device is essential to know if the device is successfully installed. When 2 modbus devices are used to monitor a heat-pump (e.g. indoor / outdoor), we will show you both modbus addresses.

API Updates
