Device design
Saftey
The Public Display is used to visualize and present output data and measured values
for a photovoltaic system. This large-scale display allows you to monitor the output
data, while at the same time providing a professional presentation of the values for a
large audience. The output data of the FRONIUS IG can be displayed on up to 10
Public Displays at the same time.
The Public Display is attached to the photovoltac system via LocalNet. The Public
Display Card required for this purpose is integrated into the Public Display. Two RS-485
ports are provided to attach to the system. The DatCom cable also supplies the re-
quired power, thus removing the need for a separate power source for the Public
Display.
LocalNet basics
LocalNet is the basic communication path between the Public Display and FRONIUS IG
inverter. LocalNet is a data network that allows data to be exchanged between FRONI-
US IG inverters and any DatCom components. The LocalNet data network is a bus
system with a ring topology. A single wire is required to allow the inidividual components
to communicate. This reduces the wiring overhead to a minimum.
System require-
ments
-
The photovoltaic system must comprise a data logger
-
Your FRONIUS IG inverter must be fitted with a ComCard
-
The „FRONIUS IG.access“ software must be installed
Important! Details concerning this manual apply to all inverters of the FRONIUS IG
serie (e.g. FRONIUS IG 60 or FRONIUS IG Plus)
Repairs
Any repairs to the FRONIUS IG and DatCom components must be performed by Froni-
us trained service technicians.
