How do I change language in EnergyCloud?

  1. Go to the Energycloud web portal login page. If you are logged in, you must first log out of Energycloud.

  2. In the top right corner, you can choose which language you want.

  3. Log in to the portal using your preferred language.

What does different operation modes mean?

Go To: System Settings/System configuration/Operation mode

Running mode

Running mode means that the system is running in accordance with the operating settings. Running mode is activated or switched off using the Start/Stop button in EnergyCloud or on the display on the EnergyHub.

Measuring mode

If you turn off “Running Mode”, the system will go into “Measuring Mode”. Measuring Mode mode means that the system is set to only measure imports and exports over the electricity meter. In Measuring Mode mode, the phase balancing function is turned off and SSOs and ESOs in batteries are in sleep mode and do not output power to the DC grid. However, the DC grid is still energized as the voltage is generated by EnergyHub.

Fault mode

If a plant indicates “Fault Mode”, the EnergyHub will fail to upload the DC link. ” Fault mode” can be caused by (for example):

  • Failed startup
  • Blown fuse in EnergyHub
  • Blown fuse on the DC network
  • Internal error in EnergyHub

 

If your EnergyHub indicates ” Fault mode”, you can try to resolve the issue by restarting the device:

  1. Turn off the AC supply to the EnergyHub
  2. Wait a few minutes
  3. Turn the AC supply back on to the EnergyHub
  4. Your EnergyHub should now enter either “Running Mode” or “Measuring Mode”
  5. If the EnergyHub returns to “Fault Mode” contact the installer.

How do I use System Configuration?

Go to: EnergyCloud/ System Settings/ System Configuration

If you have previously used the Scheduling function, you will be greeted by the following image under Operational settings:

  • If you want to change the settings for a long time, tap “GO TO SCHEDULING” and follow the instructions under “SCHEDULING” further down in this article.  

  • If you want to change the settings temporarily until your next scheduling is activated, click on “TEMPORARY OPERATIONAL SETTINGS”.
  •  

Is FerroAI enabled?
If Ferroamp’s AI control FerroAI is activated in the app, it will be visible here. This means that it takes care of all the control to optimize your system

To change settings yourself, FerroAI must be turned off.

You do this in the phone app, under “Advanced settings”. Change the operating mode to “Schedule”. After that, you can go back to “System Configuration” in EnergyCloud.

Are ancillary services enabled?

If your system participates in the market for ancillary services, your system is controlled by an external party, which means that you cannot control your system yourself. Operational settings will therefore not be configurable.

NOTE!

If ancillary services are activated and you have questions regarding the control of your system or want to deactivate the service, you need to contact the service provider. Ferroamp cannot make changes regarding the control of systems connected to support services.

How do I use scheduling?

Go to: EnergyCloud/ System Setting/ Scheduling

Scheduling allows you to set up the system so that different operational settings are applied at different times and on different days of the week. For example, we can set the system to run one operating mode at night and another during the day, Monday to Friday, and then run another operating mode during the weekend.

Common example:

Night: Charge a battery or electric car because consumption and electricity prices are usually low

Day: Charge a battery or electric car only when there is an overproduction of solar electricity to maximize self-use.

Enable scheduling

Open the EnergyCloud web portal. Select “Scheduling” under “System Settings” in the left menu.

Start by deciding which default schedule you should have. The default schedule is the setting the system will have when no other schedule is enabled.

If this is the first time you are scheduling, first press the “Use current operating settings as default schedule” button.

Click “Edit Default Schedule” to make changes to the default schedule.

To start a new scheduling, tap the plus symbol (+) in the right corner.

  1. Write a short summary of what you want to accomplish with the system.
  2. Describe the system settings you are making.
  3. Time range. Choose when to start the schedule (Start) and when to end (End)”
  4. Days of the week. Choose which days of the week scheduling will run.
  5. Select which operating setting you want to run. Read more about the settings for: Manual Self-use and power shaving under Battery Settings.

6. Click “Save” in the bottom right corner.

7. Go to the calendar view to get an overview of which schedules are enabled.

8. Open Scheduling again and tap the plus sign to add more schedules.

How do I limit export of solar energy?

Limiting the export of solar electricity can be used to ensure that you do not export more than the main fuse can handle or to avoid exporting at negative prices. The feature can also be used in a PowerShare to focus on using electricity within the property instead of delivering to the grid.

Limit solar power at minus prices:

Activate FerroAI in Ferroamp’s app. Exports will then automatically be restricted when the spot price is below SEK 0.

Manual setting for limiting export

Go to: Energycloud/System settings/System configuration/Advanced

To limit solar power exports manually, you need to go into advanced settings. Use the operating mode you want to use otherwise. If you only have solar cells and do not have any operating mode activated, you can select “Manual”.

Please note that this selection is made under the heading “Operating mode”. The operating setting must be “Advanced” to access the button.

  • Activate the button “Limit Export of solar production” by marking it in green and then fill in a value under “Grid Export Threshold”. Tap “Update” to save the setting. The system will then limit production so as not to export electricity when the power output from the grid is below the limit value for electricity network export. Below you can see how the system behaves at different threshold values for electricity network exports.

    1. Threshold value = 0 W: The EnergyHub will strive not to produce more solar electricity than is consumed in the property
    2. Threshold value = – 20000 W: The EnergyHub will strive not to export more than 20 kW to the grid
    3. Threshold value: 20000 W: The EneryHub will only produce solar electricity when the power output from the grid is above 20 kW

How do I enter the size of the main fuse?

Go to: EnergyCloud/ System settings/ System Configuration / Operation Mode

You can set the main fuse size in the system configuration in EnergyCloud.

1. To stop the plant, press Stop.

  1. The system should now be in “Measuring mode”.
  2. Set the size of the main fuse under “System Parameters” and then click Update.
