{"product_id":"vmi-ethernet-monitoring-gateway","title":"Ethernet Gateway for VMI Micro Inverters | Online Monitoring","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe VMI monitoring gateway communicates with Voltacon VMI microinverters via PLCC\/Zigbee and connects to the internet using a standard Ethernet cable from your router. One gateway is needed per installation, no matter how many microinverters are in the system. It gives panel-level monitoring and management of every inverter from a mobile or desktop browser.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEthernet gateway for micro inverters\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCommunication\u003c\/strong\u003e, PLCC\/Zigbee link to all VMI microinverters in the system\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eInternet connection\u003c\/strong\u003e, Ethernet cable to router or network switch, no Wi-Fi support\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCoverage\u003c\/strong\u003e, one gateway monitors an entire VMI installation regardless of inverter count\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAccess\u003c\/strong\u003e, mobile app and desktop browser\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eData\u003c\/strong\u003e, panel-level generation figures for each inverter and its solar panel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eManagement\u003c\/strong\u003e, remote monitoring of individual microinverters\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe gateway reads performance data from each VMI microinverter and uploads it to the online monitoring platform, so real-time and historical generation figures per panel are visible. This panel-level view makes it straightforward to spot an underperforming or faulted inverter without a site visit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA standard Ethernet cable must run from the gateway to the nearest router or switch. The gateway itself has no Wi-Fi connection for internet access. One unit is sufficient for the whole VMI installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuited to performance monitoring on residential and commercial VMI microinverter installations, and for remote fault identification and generation reporting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation and safety notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe gateway is a low-voltage communications device. The VMI microinverters it monitors carry mains AC and DC solar voltages, and must only be installed or serviced by a qualified electrician. A stable Ethernet network connection should be available at the installation site.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Voltacon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55050762355027,"sku":"BYR990","price":98.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1076\/9324\/4755\/files\/ledandsolar-byr990-1.webp?v=1790267068","url":"https:\/\/progradewarehouse.com\/products\/vmi-ethernet-monitoring-gateway","provider":"PRO GRADE WAREHOUSE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
