Our monitoring tools
Keep an eye on the system
Today, monitoring a renewable energy system is essential. The studer monitoring and remote-control tools provide continuous information (real-time and past behaviour) for a deep understanding of the operation of the system. Having the right information at hand facilitates the follow up of the main performance indicators as well as remote diagnostics and problem anticipation.
Visualization tools adapted to everyone
There are three main levels of monitoring and control in the studer environment:
- remote monitoring and control for professionals – studer portal
- remote monitoring for end-users – studer easy monitoring app
- local monitoring and control
The monitoring is possible both locally and remotely with all next smart inverter chargers, xtender inverter/chargers and vario mppt chargers.
Openstuder to develop your own advanced monitoring and control system
On top of our monitoring tools that are available with our devices, we keep a very open communication philosophy. Using our communication bridges every professional can integrate studer devices (with full control and information) into advanced monitoring systems.
We have different public protocols for external communication:
- xtender range: Studer serial protocol, Studer CAN public protocol, Studer Modbus RTU public protocol
- next range: Studer Modbus RTU & TCP/IP public protocols
There is a wide range of advanced monitoring system that already incorporate our protocols. If you want to integrate studer in your own platform or learn more about advanced monitoring integration please contact our team and check openstuder for further information.
