Kaco blueplanet 125 TL3 User Manual

Attach the DRM 0 safety label
According to AS/NZS 4777.2:2015, in Australia PV devices are marked that
support the "Mode 0" remote control command.
1. Attach the supplied safety sticker next to the name plate on the device
housing where it is clearly visible.
2. Please note the Powador-protect application note in the download area
on our homepage. Here you will find the corresponding "Demand Re-
sponse Modes" listed in the chapter "Referencing for power control".

This illustration shows a possible variant for multiple segments. Depending on the local conditions, a different
positioning of the components may also be preferable (e.g. position Segment Controller at a central location
and connect in the segment switch via glass fibre cable).
Located directly after the Gateway VPN-Router, is the main network switch via which the segment con-
troller is connected in. With the corresponding system size (distance from main network switch to the
segment controller >100 m), it may also be necessary to connect in segments that are further away via a
glass fibre connection.
Within a segment, the KACO devices can be coupled to one another via the integrated switch in an Ethernet
daisy chain, whereby the segment controller is connected to the first element of the chain. This topology is dis-
played in segment 2, for example. A Segment Controller can manage up to 100 nodes. A node in this
sense is any data source that is monitored by the Segment Controller. (Example: 45 pairs consisting of in-
verter and string combiner (90 nodes) + 10 reserve nodes for other substation/segment data sources)
