12. 7 SDC agent
The SDC agent serves as a communication intermediary between the Java applets and Sunny Data
Control on the web server. The SDC agent can manage a maximum of three server connections;
thus, three PV plants can be communicated with simultaneously via one web server.
Prerequisites for Use
• The "SDC agent" must be installed
(see Windows Start menu under "Programs/Sunny Data
Control/SDCAgent").
• JavaScript must be activated in your browser (e.g. Internet Explorer).
Configuring the SDC Agent
Configuration can be made via any web browser.
We recommend that you include the SDC agent in the Windows autostart group, so that it is
automatically launched every time the computer starts up. However, it can also be manually called
up from the Windows Start menu (Programs/Sunny Data Control/SDCAgent/SDCAgent.exe).
1. Start the SDC agent.
(see Windows Start menu under
"Programs/Sunny Data Control/
SDCAgent").
The agent does not have its own graphical
interface. With the Windows version, only a small window opens (see figure to the right),
which after a brief moment automatically resides in the background. Do not close the window.
2. Open your web browser and type in the following URL:
http://:18501, for type in the IP Adress or the DNS Name of the
computer on which the SDC Agent is installed.
