3.Plant
3.1 Create a plant
You can create your own plant at SOLARMAN Smart to run a real-time monitoring.
System will collect and calculate data from associated devices, which enables a full
understanding of PV plant running status.

Step 1: Create a Plant

Click "Create" to create your plant on SOLARMAN Smart.

Notice: If you have already created a plant, you will not see the following page. And if you
wish to create another plant, please go to homepage and click "Create".

Step 2: Enter Plant Details

Please enter detailed plant information according to your actual situation. System will
create an unique plant for you. In order to calculate plant data precisely, please enter
(1)Plant Name,
(2)Plant Type,
(3)Grid Type,
(4)Plant Location,
(5)Installed Capacity,
(6)Time Zone,
(7)Other information.

Click “Finish” to complete the creation.


If there is no data in your plant, which means you have not added a device in your plant.
3.2 Add a Logger
After the plant is created, you can add a logger. Logger can collect running data from PV
devices and upload to server, which enables a full understanding of PV plant running
status and revenue information. Furthermore, SOLARMAN Smartwill determine whether
the plant is running normally, which avoid property losses caused by device failure and
other reasons.

Step 1: Select a Plant

In case you have various power plants, which might cause data corruption, it is
recommended to select a plant first before adding a logger.
Please follow "Red Outline" below. Select a plant first, then click "Add a Logger".

Step 2: Enter Logger SN

SN can be found on the product box. If the product box has been lost, you can find SN
on product body.

Step 3: Select Authorization Mode

When you add a logger, it is required to select authorization mode. System will add a
device to your plant according to your authorization mode.
(1)Select authorized device automatically
Default authorization mode: Select authorized device automatically. If you select this
mode, devices connected to logger will be added to the plant automatically.
(2)Select authorized device manually
If you select authorized device manually, it is required to select the device connected to
logger first, then add the target devices to the plant. If the logger does not have normal
networking or devices have no connection with the logger at this period, you can go to
「Device Details」 and add device manually when it runs normally.

Notice: Once the device has been added to the plant, authorization mode cannot be
changed. (Default authorization mode: Select authorized device automatically.)

Step 4: Finish

After finish adding, you can check gateway/logger data on "Device Details" page.

If the logger is equipped with a WiFi module, please know the following information:
(1)Wi-Fi module/gateway is not capable of communication, which cannot transmit data
directly.
( 2 ) If you wish your logger is capable of communication, it is required to operate
networking configuration first. Please download SOLARMAN Smart App to configure.
SOLARMAN Smart Web is not supported.

( 3 ) After networking configuration is done, it means the logger is capable of


communication, which can transmit data to server. Then you can check plant data
onSOLARMAN Smart Web.
( 4 ) Due to network and server connection reasons, please wait about 5-10 mins to
check the data after the configuration is done.

3.3 Data View


After the plant and device setup is done, you can check plant data and operate now.
Go to "Red Outline" below to switch plant.

Our recommendations:

 If your device (e.g. inverter) only acquires production data and transmits data to
grid, it is recommended that you choose "All on Grid“ as your plant system type;
 If your device (e.g. inverter) acquires production data and consumption data at
the same time, it is recommended that you choose “Self-consumption” as your
plant system type;
 If your device (e.g. inverter) acquires production data, consumption data, battery
data and grid data at the same time, it is recommended that you choose
“Storage System” as your plant system type.
