er Software

USB stick as a
data logger

A USB stick connected to the USB A socket can act as a data logger for an inverter.

Logging data saved to the USB stick can at any time
-

be imported into the Fronius Solar.access software via the included FLD file,

be viewed directly in third-party applications (e.g., Microsoft® Excel) via the included
CSV file.

Older Excel versions (up to Excel 2007) have a row limit of 65536.

Data on the USB
stick

If the USB stick is being used as a data logger, three files will be created automatically:

FRONIUS.sys system file:
This file stores information from the inverter that is irrelevant to the customer. The file
must not be deleted separately; only ever delete all of the files (sys, fld, csv) in one go.

DALO.fld log file:
A log file for reading the data in the Fronius Solar.access software.

Further details on the Fronius Solar.access software can be found in the "DATCOM
Details" operating instructions at http://www.fronius.com

DATA.csv log file:
A log file for reading the data in a spreadsheet program (e.g. Microsoft® Excel)
