PRESSEMITTEILUNGEN

Berlin (ots) – MacView 2.0 is the essential complement to be able to read- out and display the measured parameters by MacSolar and check existing PV arrays or forecast the expected yield for a future development. Besides from extended features and display options, the new interface and the assistant for the yield-projection enable a much user-friendlier operation.

The following features are NEW:

. MacSolar Interface
– Automatic read-out (more reliable and faster communication
between the software and MacSolar)
– Remote configuration of MacSolar within MacView
(calibration, internal clock, measuring parameters)
– Automatic synchronisation of date and time
. Solar module data base (over 25,000 entries)
. Inverter data base
. Optional issuing of dynamic characteristic curves (particularly
for a more accurate low-irradiance performance simulation of solar
modules)
. User-friendly interface and menues
. Assistant for the for the yield-projection based upon the
irradiance and temperature measurements:
Measurements >> PV array config. (module, inverter) >> summary of
losses >> partial and complete results
. °C / °F conversion
. Direct export of values as a spreadsheet and printing of graphs.
. Graphic and tabular comparison of 2 different projects or sets of
measurements.
. New HID-USB data-transmission cable (does not require an specific
driver)

MacView 2.0 is compatible with previous versions of MacSolar, which can be read out using outdated data-transmission methods (such as serial port connectivity or USB-RS232 adapter) MacSolar v4 – Handset for direct and long-term measurements of irradiance and temperature

The latest evolution of MacSolar has been completely revised to make it fully compatible with the new software MacView 2.0. The following features and functions are NEW:

. Remote configuration from MacView (measuring parameters, internal
clock, calibration)
. New measuring intervals in Datalogging mode (10 s, 1 min, 6 min, 1
h)
. Ring-Buffer mode (enables measuring in FiFo mode. Can be disabled)
. Higher data-transmission rate (115 kBd instead of 4.8 kBd)
. Increased temperature measuring accuracy
. Larger data storage capacity (maximum measuring period of over 2
years)

The combination MacSolar – MacView 2.0 represents a unique tool to check existing PV arrays or projecting new installations, making an instant verification on site (handset sensor) possible and providing the values required for a later simulation/calculation of a system in a precise location with real irradiance data. MacSolar can also be used to support meteorological surveys and research.
