Installations
Device Navigation and Management
Each installation contains a structured navigation tree that organizes all devices and data in a clear hierarchy. This structure allows you to quickly navigate between devices and access relevant information for each level, such as plant, installation, inverter, string, battery, energy meter, and pyranometer.
Each level groups the devices beneath it, making it easier to locate specific components and understand how devices relate to each other within the system.
Device Page Overview
When opening this page, it will display:
- The device title
- The device navigation schema
- A device menu with different sections depending on the device type
For example, a Smart Grid Controller will include a remote link that allows you to view it as a satellite system.
The Overview page is the first screen displayed when opening this page.
Other available menu sections can include:
- Descendant devices
