This section describes the communication connection of inverter and the inverter’s monitoring system (computers, mobile devices etc). The standard communication mode of AEG AS-IC01 and AS-IC01-2 series of grid-tied solar inverters is RS485. The RS485 port can communicate with computers and mobile devices.
The WiFi Stick fits the RS485 port of the AEG inverters. WiFi is the standard communication mode for the AEG AS-IC01 and AS-IC01-2. The AEG WiFi Stick features one RS485 and one WiFi communication port for the data transmission. The AEG WiFi Stick features a general serial port which meets the network standards and has built-in TCP/IP protocol stack for the transformation between the user serial port and WiFi port.
12. Other frequency: 20MHz, 40MHz and automatic Table 23: AEG WiFi Stick features The AEG WiFi Stick is released from factory in AP mode. It can be connected with the 485 communication interface of inverters and can be operated over computer or mobile software.
