10. Configuration Parameters
The inverter settings have their own configuration file which is not part of the full site configuration file. The
default configuration settings, described in the following sections, are presented in a logical manner, but in
reality they are one contiguous file. All available parameters are described in this section, though not all are
used in a basic installation.
CAUTION!
Configure parameters with care as mistakes will shut the system down with resulting power
loss to the load. Modifying the configuration settings, using a text editor, can have dire con-
sequences and should be undertaken by advanced users only.
10.1 Transferring Inverter Settings to Another System
1. To transfer inverter settings to another system, first save the inverter configuration file to a local disc ( Main
Menu > Inverters > Manage Config File ).
2. Then browse to locate the file and upload it to the system at another site.

10.2 Examples of Modifications to Configuration Parameters
10.2.1 Changing the Saturation Level Alarm
The saturation alarm threshold is the level of load that generates an alarm indicating there is a risk of over-
load. This parameter takes into account the redundancy already defined. For example, if a system has 4
modules and 1 is redundant –> 80 % of 3 modules.
1. Save the inverter configuration file to a local disk ( Main Menu > Inverters > Manage Config File ).
2. Open the file with a text editor.
3. Scroll down to the saturation alarm threshold:
;556; ;Saturation alarm threshold; ;100; ;%;
4. Change the default to desired value in the range 80 to 100%.
5. Save the file to the local disk.
6. Upload to the inverter system.
7. Save inverter configuration file to the local disk with a different name than before.
