Remote Link Software

Remote Link is a software add-on to

• Energy Management Mk II for SA series inverters
• PS1 inverters
• Most inverters manufactured by Power Solutions Australia.

This software will enable you to connect to any capable inverter from your computer, via a direct serial cable connection or a dial-up modem, and operate the inverter with a virtual keypad.

SA series inverters

The layout is designed to match the physical keypad.

Remote Link also gives you the ability to download up to seven separate usage information files from a SA series inverter, to graph in Microsoft Excel or a similar package.

• Shunt 1
• Shunt 2
• Shunt 3
• Input 1
• Input 2
• Generator Run Time
• Percentage Battery Charge

The files' output is regular .CSV format, ready for graphing in Microsoft Excel or your favorite viewer.

Selectronic PS1 and Power Solutions Australia inverters

For a PS1 or PSA inverter, Remote Link will download the data from either one selected day or the entire stored data contents.

Additionally, you can send Generator Start/Stop and Battery Equalise commands.

After downloading data, it is automatically converted for you according to the particular model detected, and graphs spreadsheets are created for viewing in Excel.

For Selectronic PS1 inverters only:

In the Selectronic PS1 models, a new LCD Mode even lets you remotely control the inverter using the same buttons available on the inverter's front panel.

New to Version 3.0, Remote Link 2008

Version 3.0 can now display and edit settings on a PS1, saving you from having to navigate the menu structure via the front panel. All settings are easily visible / adjustable at a glance.

The system is passcode protected against user editing, and installers' configuration sets can be loaded and saved to / from file by users.

Live readings can display a variety of settings simultaneously on one screen.

Remote Link is available in varying levels of licensing, depending on the number of sites you need to connect. Please contact the sales department for more details.
