This Solar system analyzer and the Remote solar detector use rechargeable
lithium batteries.
The rechargeable lithium batteries are pre-installed in the solar system
analyzer and the Remote solar detector at the factory.
The Solar System Analyzer
Before using the new rechargeable lithium battery, please charge it for
10~12 hours continuously for better battery life.
Users can plug in the AC adaptor and no need to turn on the Analyzer.
Then the rechargeable lithium battery is charged automatically.
The Remote Solar Detector (RSD)
Before using the new rechargeable lithium battery, please charge it for 4
hours continuously for better battery life.
Users can connect the USB power cord with the RSD and a PC USB port,
then the rechargeable lithium battery is charged automatically.
I. Preparation
2
■ I-V curve test for solar system
■ Max. solar system power (Pmax) search by Auto-scan:
1000V, 12A (12000W capability)
■ The analyzer and the Remote Solar Detector is connected by Bluetooth
wireless communication (Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR Class 1).
■ The Remote Solar Detector is moisture-proof.
■ Intelligent test logic with no personnel attendance required in the field.
Solar system analyzer waits and tests the system until appropriate
sunlight irradiance is detected.
■ Max. voltage (Vpm) at Pmax
■ Max. current (Ipm) at Pmax
■ Voltage at open circuit (Voc)
■ Current at short circuit (Isc)
■ Efficiency (%) calculation of solar system
■ Temperature measurement of solar panels
■ Irradiance measurement of sun light
■ Series resistance (Rs) calculation of solar panels
■ I-V curve with cursor to display each data point
■ With data logging/open function, the I-V curves of solar system can be
analyzed/recorded for a period of time (e.g. 60 min.)
■ Conversion of I-V curve under OPC to data under standard test
condition (STC) based upon IEC standard
■ Provide OPerating Condition (OPC) and Standard Test Condition (STC)
test reports for verification of solar panel performance (OK, or NO OK)
■ Users can set up the parameters of solar panels
II. Features
3
■ Users can set up the series number of solar panels. Parameters of
many solar panels can be measured in one measurement.
■ The irradiances and temperatures of solar panels can be continuously
measured, monitored and recorded.
■ Built-in calendar clock
■ AC power adaptor
■ Rechargeable lithium battery, low battery warning
■ Optical USB cable for PC
■ With optional power clamps (SOLAR 15 DC Current Probe and SOLAR
21 AC Power Clamp), continuously measure/monitor/record the DC
power output of solar system and the AC power output of inverter (1
phase or balanced 3 phases); calculate the efficiency of DC to AC
power conversion and the efficiency of the max. output power

IV. Operation
Warning: To avoid risk of electric shock and damage
to the unit, do not touch any internal components with
tools of any kind through the ventilation opening.
Warning: AC adaptor is used for lithium battery
recharging only. The power source of the Solar
System Analyzer is always the (rechargeable) lithium
battery, NOT AC adaptor.
Warning: When using a lithium battery as the power
source, please do not plug in an AC adaptor. If users
plug in an AC adaptor during operation, power to the
analyzer will be interrupted and the data during
operation will be lost.
Note: When pressing any button, users will hear a
sound of buzzer. When keeping pressing it for more
than 2 seconds, users will hear another sound of
buzzer. This status is normal.
