VRM Portal - Frequently asked questionsIn systems with a BMV, the VE.Bus state of charge is hidden. Why?If a BMV is in the system, the VE.Bus State of Charge (SOC) is not stored into the VRM Database. When there is a BMV in the system, and a Multi or Quattro, there are two state of charges being calculated for the same battery. Since the algorithms differ (see next FAQ entry for more information) they will hardly ever show the same percentage, and showing both causes confusion and questions.What is the difference between the BMV SOC, and theVE.Bus SOC?SOC stands for State of Charge. The BMV SOC is the state of charge measured by the BMV Battery Monitor. It calculates this value based on measurements taken by the shunt. And, assuming the shunt is installed in the correct place in the system, it takes into account all the loads and chargers.The SOC taken from VE.Bus is calculated by our Multis and Quattros. To calculate the SOC, they use only the internally measured charge and discharge currents. Because of this you can only use it for some system types, see here for which ones. The battery capacity can be configured withVEConfigure.BMV SOC vs VE.Bus SOC algorithm The BMV has the advantage in its calculations that it sees all DC currents: so this includes MPPT solar charger currents, DC loads (typical in marine and automotive applications, for example alternators, lights and pumps), or other DC chargers. The Multi and Quattro have the advantage that it knows when the bulk state is finished, and can then sync the VE.Bus state of charge to 80%. Instead of (as the BMV does) having to wait until the battery is really full (sync parameters are met), and only then will it sync to 100%.See also https:///live/ccgx:start#battery_state_of_charge_socWhat are the requirements for the Solar yield and Consumption tab?These are the Solar yield and the Consumption tab on the VRM Portal:Solar:Consumption:These graphs work on information calculated by the GX device (Cerbo GX or Venus GX), based on energy counter values read from connected devices.General requirements:GX device eg Cerbo GX with latest versionMulti or Quattro with a 26 or 27 hardware: the 7 digit firmware number needs to start with 26 or27. If it starts with 19 or 20, the product has old hardware. To get the consumption and solaryield tabs working for these products, the product needs to be replaced or get an control board upgrade.Multi or Quattro firmware needs to be recent as well:1xx firmware (virtual switch), needs to be xxxx159 or newer2xx firmware (assistants gen1), needs to be xxxx209 or newer3xx firmware (assistants gen2), needs to be xxxx306 or newer4xx firmware: all versions will workMore information: VE.Bus firmware versions explainedExtra requirements for systems with AC Coupled PV (ie a grid-tie inverter on the output), for example ESS:PV Inverter power and energy needs to be measured. For example a direct Fronius connection, or with our AC Current Sensor or wireless AC SensorsThere's an issue when a single EM24 three phase meter is used to measure both grid- and PV-power (grid on its phase 1 terminals and PV power on phase 2). In this case the solar to gridvalue is incorrect. The solution is to use an ET340 or ET112. See Energy Meters for details.When using the AC Current Sensor, make sure to use the latest version of the Assistant, asreleased in October 2014. more info'Has DC system' related limitations‘Has DC system’ is a feature on a GX device. When that config switch is enabled, a new box called 'DC Power' appears on the GX display. Its value is calculated from the differential between the power measured by the bms or battery monitor, and the power flow measured by the inverter/charger and other sources that are actively monitored by the GX. Its typical use is in Marine and Automotive applications, as they have alternators, and lights, fridges, and many more DC loads. For more details, see the GX device manual.If this feature is enabled, and the used battery monitor is a BMV 700 or 712, then the minimum required BMV firmware version to make the VRM Energy dashboards operate correctly is v3.08.The calculated value for 'DC Power' is not used in any way by the GX, beyond just beingdisplayed 'on screen'. In particular it is not logged on the VRM portal and it is not included in system calculation and it does not appear as part of the recorded Solar Yield.Other limitationsA system with multiple MPPTs, even a mix of VE.Can and VE.Direct, is supported: the algorithmwill totalize all the counters - as long as they are all actively monitored.Multiple AC current sensors measuring multiple PV inverters is supported as well.These overviews work correctly when Victron Solar Chargers are used. When one or more non-Victron solar chargers are used, the system cannot read their Energy yields, and because ofthat the resulting overviews are incorrect and unreliable.The VGR, VGR2 and VER do not provide any energy data data.Combining MPPT Solar Chargers and PV Inverters in a system is supported.Note that the same data used to show these energy graphs is also available as a download. See the Advanced tab on VRM, and then the download icon on the top right.How does the screensaver work? How is the displayed state determined?The screensaver is disabled by default but can be configured in your profile settings to automatically show after a period of inactivity. You can also open the screensaver directly by pressing the “s” key twice.The screensaver displays which source of energy your installation is currently running on. This is determined by looking at which source of energy (the sources being solar, generator, battery and grid) is delivering the largest amount of energy to consumers (locally connected devices using the energy). Then, if no consumers are using any power, it looks at which source provides the largest amount of energy to the battery. Then, if no battery is connected or it is not being charged, it looks at which source is delivering the most energy back to the grid. If at this point the source is still not determined, apparently no energy is being produced or used anywhere, and the state defaults to 'on grid'.I want to analyze the data in a spreadsheet, how do I do this?Open the Advanced tab, choose a date range, and then use the Download CSV or Download XLS link at the top right.Please note: Safari is not downloading the files properly right now, please try Chrome or Firefox How can I remove an installation from my account?Go to the tab Settings –> General and scroll to the bottom of that page, then click the 'Remove' button. This will unlink the installation from your account.How can I move an installation's history from one GX device to another?You will need to connect the new GX device to the internet, and register it. Take note of the VRM Portal id.Then open the old site on VRM, and go to Settings → General.There is an option there Replace the GX device of this installation.This will explain the steps of the procedure.Why are some values shown red?In case the data is too old, which means older than would have been expected from the configured logging interval, the value will be shown red. Use the System overview page to check if there are products that are not connected anymore. One typical example where this might happen is:The system has been connected to a three phase system, and now it is connected to a single phase system. But the data for L2 and L3 is still being shown in a red color. Reboot the gateway (Cerbo GX, Global Remote or Ethernet Remote) to reset the data.For how long is the data being stored?The data shown in the advanced tab is being stored for at least 6 months, with exception of Battery state of charge.The data used to show the solar yield and the consumption tab (kWh data) is stored 5 years minimum.How can I zoom out any of the graphs?The graphs can be zoomed out to their original zoom level by clicking the 'options' and then the'Reset zoom' button in the graph.Why do I get such a weird high value for AC Input when a PV inverter is feeding back to the grid through the Multi?Since VE.Bus firmware version xxxx205, the Multis and Quattros report the direction of the AC input current. Earlier VE.Bus versions reported only the absolute value: you could not see if the power was being fed back to the mains, or taken from the mains.VGRs, VGR2s and VERs interpret this value incorrectly. They show around 650 Amps instead of -5 Amps.If you really want to see the right data, replace the VGR/VGR2/VER with a Cerbo GX.What is the column logtime Offset in the XLS/CSV download for?Use it to see the quality of the Internet connection.The values relate to the backlog feature. Usually the column is either empty, or you see series of rows with a decreasing logtime offset. Once zero, the columns are empty again. These series mean that there was a problem with the Internet connection. And the value shown is the number of seconds for which that particular row of data had been backlogged.How can I change my email address, or add new additional users?Login to VRM with the existing account, invite the new email address (Settings → Users → Invite). See this video example.If the new user will be an Admin, you will need to enable full control.That is all, there will be an email sent to the new email address and you can use that to login.There is no option to delete the old account, though it can be removed from a specific installation.No data will be lost during this procedure.How can I upload very large database files to the VRM with a 200MB upload limit?The VRM Portal only allows up to 200MB uploads for GX device data files. The portal will accept gzip files, so you can compress the databases and then upload those. A compressed 200MB file can contain up to a year or more worth of data!I have just connected my GX device after not being online for a long time, why is it not updating?The first thing to check is the VRM menu to make sure that the VRM is connected and communicating - if it isn't, follow the troubleshooting here.If you are seeing that the GX device is connecting to VRM, then it can take up to a few hours or more for the data to sync to VRM and for the updates to show, depending on how much data there is to catch up. If it still has not got up to date after 24 hours of connection time - try asking for more help on Why can't I get push notifications in my Chrome browser on a Apple Mac?There are two possible reasons why you don't receive notifications:1.Chrome is not allowed to show notifications on macOS2.Chrome has disabled notifications in the app settingsAllow Chrome to send notifications to the macOS Notification Center by opening System Preferences → Notifications in macOS. Then scroll down to Google Chrome and turn on “Allow notifications”.Also make sure Notifications are enabled in the Chrome app settings (in the Chrome app go to Settings → Content → Notifications) and the VRM domain is allowed to send notifications. Check out this Community post that explains this process in more detail.。

Photonic Universe 20W 12V 太阳能充电套件说明书
20W 12V solar charging kitInstruction manualDear Customer,Thank you for selecting this Photonic Universe solar charging kit. This manual explains the installation of your solar kit and answers some frequently asked questions. Please read this manual carefully before setting up your system.Remember, all work should be carried out by an appropriately qualified person. Precautions and safety measures should be taken in all cases.Contents of the package:№Item Quantity1 20W 12V polycrystalline solar panel with 3m cable 12 5A solar charge controller 13 2m battery cable with crocodile clips (used between the controller and your battery) 14 5A fuse in a holder (installed on the battery cable) 15 Instruction manual for the solar controller 16 Instruction manual for the kit 1 Installation of the solar kit:1. Before installing the solar kit, please ensure that your 12V battery is not fully discharged. Thebattery should produce at least 8V - this is the minimum voltage required to start the solar charge controller. If your battery is fully discharged, please charge it beforehand by other means for ashort period of time.2. Connect your 12V battery to the solar charge controller using the 2m cable with crocodile clips inthe following order:−On the solar controller end, attach the bare ends of the cable using the screw terminals−On the battery end, use the crocodile clips attached to the cableThe “+” battery terminal should be connected to the “+” battery terminal of the controller, and the “-” battery terminal should be connected to the “-” battery terminal of the controller.Please note: crocodile clips are provided for temporary use only. For permanent connection, we recommend using special battery terminals or your existing battery connectors.3. Connect the solar panel to the solar charge controller: The “+” lead should be connected to the“+” solar terminal of the controller, and the “-” lead should be connected to the “-” solar terminal of the controller. Your solar kit should now start charging the battery. For maximum output, ensure that the solar panel is situated outdoors and is exposed to as much sunlight as possible, without any shading. Even a small shaded area can significantly reduce the output (e.g. leaves, treesetc.). Note: positioning the solar panel indoors behind a window is not recommended as it willreduce the output considerably.4. If required, you can connect any 12V load or appliances to the load terminals of the solarcontroller (“+” to “+”, “-”to “-”), for example 12V light bulbs. Ensure that the total current drawn by the load does not exceed 5A.Your 12V load or appliances can also be connected directly to your battery, however in this case the discharge protection feature of the solar controller will not function (the controller will not beable to automatically cut off the load when the battery is becoming over discharged).5. The solar panel and its connection box on the back are waterproof and can be used outdoors inall weather conditions. The solar controller is not waterproof and should always be used indoors.6. Please refer to the solar controller manual for information regarding operation of the controller. Photonic Universe Ltd - Bringing you the benefits of solar power -LoadPlease note that the maximum current allowed for the solar charge controller is 5A. If you are using the load terminals of the solar controller, please ensure that your load does not draw more than 5A from your battery. If you are planning on using the load terminals of the solar charge controller, it is recommended that you install a fuse into the load circuit.Do not connect an inverter or a similarly powerful appliance to the load terminals of the solar charge controller. Such appliances should be connected to your battery terminals directly.Common positive / negative ground of vehicles and boatsMost vehicles (including motorhomes and caravans) and boats typically have a common ground connection, where the vehicle body (or boat hull) is used as a shared connection point by the engine, generator, battery, lights and other system components. When installing the solar kit on such vehicles / boats, please pay attention to the following recommendations:- To avoid any short circuits or conflicts between your vehicle / boat system and the solar kit system, you should never ground the solar panel (i.e. never connect it to your vehicle body / boat hull). The solar panel cable should be fully electrically isolated from your vehicle body / boat hull and should be connected directly to the solar controller.- Similarly, if you are using the load terminals of the solar controller, your load should be fully isolated from the vehicle body / boat hull and should be connected directly to the solar controller. If required, your battery can remain connected to the vehicle / boat system when the solar charging kit is connected to it (in parallel). It should not cause any interference with the solar controller unless the battery is being charged by the engine. Engine charging may cause the following to occur: - The voltage of the battery circuit will increase due to the alternator charging your battery- The solar controller will treat this as if the battery were fully charged and will cut the solar panel off temporarily to prevent overcharging of your battery.- When engine charging ceases, the solar kit will resume charging automatically.Frequently asked questionsQ.

Solar CellIntroductionA solar cell, also known as a photovoltaic cell, is an electrical device that converts sunlight into electricity by the photovoltaic effect. It is a key component in solar panels and plays a crucial role in harnessing solar energy. Solar cells are widely used to generate clean and renewable energy for various applications including residential, commercial, and industrial sectors.Working PrincipleSolar cells are based on the principle of the photovoltaic effect. This effect occurs when certain materials, known as semiconductors, absorb photons from sunlight, which then excite the electrons within the material. The excited electrons create an electric current when they flow through the material. This current can be harnessed and used as a source of electrical energy.Types of Solar CellsThere are several types of solar cells that vary in their material composition and efficiency. The most common types include:1.Monocrystalline Silicon Solar Cells:–These solar cells are made from a single crystal structure, resulting in high efficiency.–They have a uniform dark color and are easily recognizable by their rounded edges.–Monocrystalline solar cells tend to be more expensive due to the manufacturing process.2.Polycrystalline (Multicrystalline) Silicon Solar Cells:–These solar cells are made from multiple crystal structures, which makes them less efficient compared to monocrystalline cells.–They have a bluish color and a granular appearance.–Polycrystalline solar cells are more cost-effective compared to monocrystalline cells.3.Thin-Film Solar Cells:–These solar cells are made by depositing a thin layer of semiconductor material onto a substrate.–Thin-film solar cells are flexible and lightweight, making them suitable for various applications.–They have a lower efficiency compared to crystalline silicon solar cells but are cheaper toproduce.anic Solar Cells:–Also known as organic photovoltaic cells (OPV), these solar cells use organic materials as thesemiconductor.–Organic solar cells have the advantage of being printable and can be manufactured using low-costprocesses.–However, their efficiency is currently lower compared to other types of solar cells.Manufacturing ProcessThe manufacturing process of solar cells involves several steps, including:1.Silicon Production:–The primary material used in most solar cells is silicon, which is obtained through a complex process.–Pure silicon is extracted from silica (SiO2), which is then refined and purified to reach the desiredlevel of purity.2.Wafer Production:–The purified silicon is transformed into solid blocks called ingots.–The ingots are then sliced into thin wafers using a diamond saw.–These wafers serve as the base for the solar cells.3.Doping:–Doping is a process in which impurities are added to the silicon wafer to create a p-n junction, which is necessary for the photovoltaic effect.–The addition of phosphorous or boron atoms introduces extra electrons or electron holes into the silicon structure, respectively.4.Formation of Layers:–Several layers are formed on the surface of the silicon wafer to enhance the solar cell’s efficiency.–These layers include anti-reflective coatings and metal contacts.5.Assembly into Modules:–The individual solar cells are interconnected and assembled into modules or panels.–The modules are then encapsulated to protect the solar cells from environmental factors.Efficiency and LimitationsThe efficiency of a solar cell refers to the percentage of sunlight converted into electrical energy. The efficiency varies depending on the type of solar cell and its manufacturing process. Currently, the most efficient solar cells on the market can achieve efficiencies of over 20%.Solar cells, however, have certain limitations, including:1.Efficiency Drop with Temperature:–Solar cells become less efficient as their temperature increases.–High temperatures can reduce the voltage and current output, lowering the overall performance.2.Dependency on Sunlight:–Solar cells rely on sunlight and their efficiency decreases in cloudy or shaded conditions.–The placement and orientation of solar panels play a crucial role in maximizing energy output.3.Cost:–The initial cost of solar cell production is relatively high, although it has been decreasing inrecent years.–The cost of solar cells is influenced by factors such as material type, manufacturing process, andmarket demand.ApplicationsSolar cells have a wide range of applications, including:1.Residential Solar Power Systems:–Solar panels installed on rooftops can generate electricity for residential use.–Excess energy can be fed back into the grid or stored in batteries for later use.mercial and Industrial Solar Power Systems:–Large-scale solar power plants generate electricity for commercial and industrial applications.–These systems can supply power to factories, offices, and other commercial buildings.3.Portable Solar Chargers:–Solar cells can be used to power handheld devices such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops.–Portable solar chargers provide a convenient and renewable source of energy for outdoor activities.4.Solar Lighting:–Solar cells are used in outdoor lighting systems, including streetlights, garden lights, and pathwaylights.–These systems eliminate the need fortraditional electrical wiring and reduce energyconsumption.5.Space Applications:–Solar cells are extensively used in spaceapplications such as satellites and spacecraft.–In space, solar cells provide the necessary power for various onboard systems and equipment.ConclusionSolar cells are vital components in the generation of clean and renewable energy. They utilize the photovoltaic effect to convert sunlight into electricity, making them an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional energy sources. With advancements in technology and decreasing costs, solar cells are becoming increasingly popular and are expected to play a significant role in meeting our future energy needs.。

A con-ventional charge controller simply connects the module to the battery when the battery is discharged. When the 75W module in this example is connected directly to a battery charging at 12 volts its power production is artificially limited to about 53 watts. This wastes a whopping 22 watts or nearly 30% of the available power!Patented MPPT technology used in Solar Boost controllers operates in a very different fashion. The Solar Boost controller continually calculates the module’s maximum power voltage, in this case 17 volts.It then operates the module at its maximum power voltage to extract maximum power. The higher power extracted from the module is then provided to the battery in the form of increased charge current. In conditions where extra PV power is not available, Solar Boost controllers will operate as a conventional controller with very low voltage drop.Typical 75W PV Module Performance25°C Cell • 1000W/m2The actual charge current increase you will see varies primarily with module temperature and battery voltage. In comfortable temperatures, current increase typically varies between 10 to 25%, with 30% or more easily achieved with a discharged battery and cooler temperatures. What you can be sure of is that Solar Boost charge controllers will deliver the highest charge current possible for a given set of operating conditions.SPECIFICATIONS Solar Boost 3024iOutput Current Rating 30 Amp maximum, automatic 30 Amp current limitNominal Battery Voltage12 / 24VDC PV Input Voltage 57VDC maximumPower Consumption 0.35W Typical standby • 1.0W Typical charge onCharge Algorithm 3-stage Bulk/Acceptance/Float (Full charge can be based on net charge current matched to battery amp-hours ➁)Acceptance Voltage14.4VDC (range 14.0 – 14.8VDC ➀, 10.0 – 40.0VDC ➁)Float Voltage 13.4VDC (range 13.2 – 13.8VDC ➀, 10.0 – 40.0VDC ➁)Equalization Voltage 15.4VDC (range 10.0 – 40.0VDC ➁) • automatic or manual operationSingle output field configurable as either: 20 Amp load controller –or– 2 Amp auxiliary battery charger2 Amp typical, same charge voltage as primary batteryAuxiliary Output Function • Aux.
