8 Commissioning Functions
If functions related to PV power control, such as PV power preferred, are involved, you are
advised to configure smart appliances with the rated power greater than 100 W.
NOTE
EMMA V100R023C10 (V100R023C10SPCXX) supports only the Shelly versions listed in the
following table. To check the Shelly version, perform the following steps:
1. Power on Shelly and connect to the WLAN of Shelly.
2. Enter the IP address for connecting to Shelly in the address box of the browser to check
the firmware version of Shelly. For details, see the Shelly user manual.
Appliance Settings
NOTE
● The smart switches can work properly only when there are stable WLAN signals. If the
signals are unstable, the switches may fail to connect to WLAN or frequently go offline.
Different brands of smart switches may have different WLAN requirements. For details,
see the product manuals or contact your supplier.
● Before the installation, ensure that the home router can cover the position of the smart
switches with stable network connection, and perform the commissioning and
verification.
1. Connect a smart switch to the same router as the EMMA. For details, see the
quick guide delivered with the smart switch.
2. Open the FusionSolar app, choose Device > Appliances, add the smart switch,
and set the parameters such as the PV power parameters and power consumption
priorities.
NOTE
In the SmartGuard networking scenario, Off-grid Load Control does not take effect for
smart appliances connected to non-backup power ports.
2. Power on the smart circuit breaker "Living room 1," search for it in the Shelly
app, and connect it to the router.
3. Log in to the FusionSolar app as an owner, search for it, and change its name.
Bind it to the corresponding load based on the actual cable connection.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to power on and commission the smart circuit breaker
"Living room 2."
NOTE
If multiple smart switches have been powered on without records in advance, you can
power them on or off on the Shelly app to distinguish them.
Method 1: Setting Off-Grid Mode for the Inverter Using the SmartGuard
Connect to the EMMA by referring to Connecting the EMMA on the App, choose
Monitor > SUN2000, tap Set, and enable Off-grid mode.
Backup power Set the backup power SOC. In on-grid [0, 100%]
SOC mode, the ESS does not discharge
when it is discharged to the backup
power SOC. When the grid fails, loads
are powered in backup mode.
Auto You can set the battery SOC upper and lower
thresholds. When the battery SOC reaches the specified
upper or lower threshold, the generator automatically
shuts down or starts.
Fault Detection After Fault Detection is enabled, you need to set Fault
Detection Mode as follows:
Fault Detection
Mode By ON signal: If the generator fails to work, the
generator alarm signal circuit has low impedance.
When the generator is normal, the generator alarm
signal circuit has high impedance.
By OFF signal: If the generator fails to work, the
generator alarm signal circuit has high impedance.
When the generator is normal, the generator alarm
signal circuit has low impedance.
Parameter Description
ESS SOC Threshold When the battery SOC is lower than ESS SOC
for Starting Up Threshold for Starting Up Generator, the generator
Generator starts up.
NOTE
● ESS SOC Threshold for Starting Up Generator ≥ End-of-
discharge SOC + 10% (For example, if End-of-discharge
SOC is 15%, ESS SOC Threshold for Starting Up
Generator must be 25% or greater.)
● If the generator startup fails, loads will be powered off
after the battery discharges to End-of-discharge SOC.
ESS SOC Threshold When the battery SOC is higher than ESS SOC
for Shutting Down Threshold for Shutting Down Generator, the
Generator generator shuts down.
Charge ESS with Set this parameter to Enabled to allow the generator to
Generator charge the battery.
Max Output Power Indicates the maximum output power ratio of the
Ratio generator.
NOTE
When the functions of the limited feed-in and scheduling via the DI port are enabled at the
same time, the system calculates the output power thresholds for both functions
respectively, and then sends the smaller value to the inverter.
Procedure
1. Log in to the local commissioning screen of the EMMA. For details, see
Connect to the EMMA.
2. Tap Power adjustment > Limited Feed-in and set related parameters as
prompted.
Parameter Description
Control mode Sets the power control mode at the grid connection
point.
Disabled: The inverter output power is not limited,
and the inverter runs at full load.
Grid connected with zero power: The inverter output
power is limited, with zero feed-in power at the grid
connection point.
● Limited feed-in (kW): The inverter output power
is limited, with the specified maximum active
output power at the grid connection point.
● Power-limited grid connected(%): The inverter
output power is limited based on the plant capacity
percentage at the grid connection point.
Limitation mode Sets the export limitation mode at the grid connection
point.
● Total power: indicates export limitation of the total
power at the grid connection point.
● Single phase power: indicates export limitation of
the power in each phase at the grid connection
point. (This mode can be used only for a three-
phase four-wire system.)
Maximum protection Specifies the time for detecting power meter data. If
time the EMMA does not detect the power meter data
within the preset time, the EMMA sends the value of
Active power output limit when meter fails to the
inverter for protection.
Parameter Description
Active power output Specifies the derating value of the inverter active
limit when meter power by percentage. The active power percentage
fails derating value is sent to the inverter when no power
meter data is detected.
Maximum grid feed- Sets the maximum active feed-in power at the grid
in power (kW) connection point. This parameter is valid when the
control mode is set to Limited feed-in (kW).
Maximum grid feed- Sets the percentage of the maximum active power at
in power (%) the grid connection point to the plant capacity. This
parameter is valid when control mode is set to Power-
limited grid connected(%).
Ensure that the inverter is correctly connected to the ripple control receiver when
setting this function. (In Germany and some other European areas, the ripple
control receiver is used to convert a power grid scheduling signal to a dry contact
signal, in which a dry contact is needed.)
NOTE
When the functions of the limited feed-in and scheduling via the DI port are enabled at the
same time, the system calculates the output power thresholds for both functions
respectively, and then sends the smaller value to the inverter.
