8.1.2.6 Active Power Limitation via Standard Signal: WCnstNomAnIn Mode
The active power limitation is set at the input terminals for setpoint specification using an analog signal (see Sunny Central
installation manual). This is usually implemented by a ripple control signal.
The electrical current strength of the connected signal determines the nominal active power.
The analog measured values must be between 4 mA and 19 mA. If the analog signal is less than 2 mA, an error message
will be displayed in the instantaneous value P-WModFailStt (see Section 8.1.4, page 52).
The analog value is converted to a setpoint for power limitation. Here, the parameter Pmax forms the end point of the
linear characteristic curve.
8.1.3 Displaying the Status of Active Power Limitation
The instantaneous value P-WModStt indicates the status of active power limitation.
Procedure:
• Display the instantaneous value P-WModStt on the user interface (see Section 6.1, page 40).
8.1.4 Displaying Error Messages and Warnings for Active Power Limitation
The instantaneous value P-WModFailStt displays errors or warnings associated with active power limitation.
Procedure:
• Display the instantaneous value P-WModFailStt on the user interface (see Section 6.1, page 40).
