Solar router engines

An engine is designed to define how many and when energy has to be diverted.

Different kind of engine exists whach can progressively divert energy to a load and manage an ON/OFF switch. See details into engine's dedicated pages.

Engine naming

The name of engine is reflecting how energy divertion is performed:
Example : engine_1dimmer_1bypass will manage 1 dimmer managing a progressive regulation associated with a bypass relay.

User feedback LEDS

The yellow LED is reflecting the network connection:

  • OFF : solar router is not connected to power supply.
  • ON : solar router is connected to the network.
  • blink : solar router is not connected to the network and is trying to reconnect.
  • fast blink : An error occurs during the reading of energy exchanged with the grid.

The green LED is reflecting the actual configuration of regulation:

  • OFF : automatic regulation is deactivated.
  • ON : automatic regulation is active and is not diverting energy to the load.
  • blink : solar router is currently sending energy to the load.

The configuration of LED are performed on substitution section as show in the example bellow:
