AE ParkControl fulfills the 2 main functions of reducing the power and reactive power regulation for PV-Systems with upto 128 REFUsol Inverters (Inverter and REFUpmu even in Combination).
For the different requirements and Solar park-Dimensions AE ParkControl can be obtained in different versions:
AE ParkControl Basic permits already a control of the active and reactive power by a power supply
company. It offers 6 digital inputs and outputs in a maximum of 8 participants (Inverter, REFUpmu).
AE ParkControl Classic offers the possibility, to connect many REFUsol inverters and by the control
with SIMATIC S7-1200 even a communication or a response on the IST-feed load.
In AE ParkControl Advanced the operation measurement values are measured by SENTRON PAC
and directly provided to the control. Thereby, for example, even a reactive power regulation as per the
graph is possible.
AE ParkControl Professional offers over the report IEC 60870-5-101 a direct system monitoring
through the EVU. The power supplier has here, not only the possibility of regulation, instead even the
access to the operation measurement values and the current system status. The Solar park can be
completely regulated or controlled and monitored by the control stand of the EVUs.

Functional Description
4.1 Power Reduction
General Information By power reduction one understands the throttling of generation systems, specified by the feed guide lines and a reduction of the feed load in over capacity in the network should be guaranteed. For this purpose, all generation systems over control display should be connected together and in case of requirement it should be uniformly reduced or reduced depending on the place
For the theoretical value transmission of power reduction, three different theoretical value sources are
supported by AE ParkControl:
Binary Specifications: realized over n-polar ripple control receiver or transfer marshaling panel
Analog Specifications: realized over transfer to marshaling panel
Specifications over Telecontrol report 60870-5-101
Theoretical value Sources and their Priorities
The three different theoretical value sources can be optionally combined. Because of this reason every
theoretical value source conveys a priority. The valid active theoretical value specification with the maximum priority is taken up and transmitted or transferred to the REFUsol Inverter. If in a parametrized theoretical
value source problems appear, then theoretical value sources with lower priority are searched and the valid
theoretical value specifications are taken over. If no further valid theoretical value specification are present,
then after a filter time of 1 minute the definite Default-Value for the power reduction is sent.
Theoretical value source Description Priority
Theoretical values over binary
inputs
The theoretical values with reference to power in %
calculated over static inputs or impulse inputs (Upto 14
different theoretical values with reference to power)
1
Theoretical value over
Telecontrol-Communication
The theoretical values with reference to power
calculated over telecontrol report in %
2
Theoretical value over analog
inputs
The theoretical values with reference to power
calculated over analog input as voltage value or
current value in %
3
In the theoretical values with reference to power over binary inputs, the static inputs and impulse inputs can
be optionally combined. Here it should be noted, that impulse specifications are deleted by static
specifications. Apart from that in multiple defined impulse inputs of presently last detected impulse with the
relevant theoretical values with reference to power are taken over.
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
15
4.2 Reactive Power Control
General Information By reactive power control one understands the control or regulation of a definite active power value at the Feed point of the generation system, which is specified by the feed guide lines.
For the calculation of theoretical value of active power specifications six different theoretical value sources are supported by AE ParkControl:
Binary Theoretical values cosPhi: realized over n-polar Ripple control receiver or Marshal panel
Analog Theoretical value cosPhi: realized over Marshal panel
Theoretical values cosPhi from a Q(U)-/ cosPhi(U)-Graph
Theoretical values cosPhi from a cosPhi(P)-Graph
Theoretical values cosPhi, which result from a fixed value Q
Theoretical values cosPhi over Telecontrol report 60870-5-101
The Theoretical value specifications cosPhi that appear are checked for plausibility and subsequently transferred over to the REFUsol Inverter. With AE ParkControl, the simultaneous parameterizing of all six
theoretical value sources is possible. The types of regulation Q(U), cosPhi(P) and fixed value Q are available
for AE ParkControl Advanced and Professional, the specification over telecontrol report is possible only with
AE ParkControl Professional.
Theoretical value sources and your Priorities The six different theoretical value sources can be optionally combined. Due to this reason, every theoretical
value source is allotted a priority. The valid active theoretical value specification with the highest priority is taken up and transmitted to the REFUsol Inverter. If in a parametrized theoretical value source problems
appear, then the theoretical value sources are searched with lower priority and the close valid theoretical
value specifications are taken over. If no further valid theoretical value specifications are present, then after a
filter time of 1 minute of the definite default-value for the reactive power regulation is sent.

Theoretical value source Description Priority

Theoretical value over Analog

5
In the theoretical values over binary inputs, static Inputs and impulse inputs can be optionally combined.
Thereby, it should be noted, that impulse specifications get deleted with static specifications. Apart from that
in multiple defined impulse inputs of presently last detected impulse with the relevant cos phi theoretical
values with reference to power are taken over. As even the three existing type of regulations for the run time
over binary inputs can be activated, the principle is similar like in the binary inputs.
The selection of the type of regulation over binary inputs can likewise be realized over static inputs that appear or impulse evaluation. Thus here, it is valid, that the stored impulse is reset, if an input appears that is static parametrized or another impulse is detected. An exception with reference to the theoretical value sources and their aligned priorities exists in AE ParkControl Professional. A new theoretical value specification transmitted over the telecontrol report has a higher priority than the stored binary impulse specification for fixed cosPhi-Value viz. the choice of the type of regulations.
4.3 Registering the Measurement
The registering of measurement over the feed point is available only in AE ParkControl Advanced and
Professional.
For the registering of the Measurement value the SENTRON PAC4200 is considered, which is connected over PROFINET to the present SPS. The wiring of the components is described in the chapter "Example of wiring and Suggestions for wiring (Page 26)".
Note
Please note, that for the registering of the measurement value manufacture transducer are needed, to convert
the 20 kV medium voltage viz. the measured current in correspondingly evaluated voltage and current. This
measurement converter is the ingredient of Trafos.
Alternatively the registering of the measurement value takes place on the 400 V-low voltage. In this case only
the curent converter is necessary.
The Reconciliation must take place with the relevant energy supply companies (EVU).
4.4 Local Ethernet-Communication
General Information
For the different functions of AE ParkControl, different Communication routines are used.
Basically one can differentiate between 3 types of Communication, which is described in the following table:
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
17
Type of Communication Description
Cyclic PROFINET-Communication for
SENTRON PAC4200
This type of Communication is contained in AE ParkControl Advanced
and Professional and serves the high frequency transmission of current
Measurement value on the feed point for S7-1200.
Cyclic Ethernet-Communication for REFUsol Inverters
This type of Communication serves for the distribution of the theoretical
values for power reduction and Blind feed specifications over the project
specific number and type of REFUsol Inverters.
HTTPS-Access on the Web server-Surfaces This Communication type serves the status overview and the
parameterizing of the present AE ParkControl variants. The first two
types of communications are system conditioned and cannot be
influenced. The access over port 443 on the AE ParkControl SPS can
thus be realized from the remote distance (see Chapter "Ethernet-
Communication and Embedding Into In The IT- Structures (Page 24)").
Communication with multiple REFUsol Inverters over Ethernet
Every AE ParkControl variant with the exception of AE ParkControl Basic (max. 8 REFUsol Inverter) supports
the connection of upto 128 REFUsol Inverters over Ethernet. The AE ParkControl SPS-Controls used are
available over 8 connection resources, which are simultaneously operated. The parametrized number over REFUsol Inverters are distributed uniformly on the connection resources, whereby in case of maximum
structure 16 participants per connection resource are placed behind each other. Please note that in case of
specific IT-Structures (managed switches, multiple cascaded switches, guided transmission etc.) the
communication can last longer or it could lead to time-out of the connection.
Parameterized Transmission Cycle
The transmission of the theoretical values to REFUsol Inverter takes place in a parametrized transmission
cycle. In the parameterizing of the communication of AE ParkControl one must pay attention to the fact that,
the transmission cycle that is chosen is not too low.
Note
Depending on the parametrized number of REFUsol Inverters, the distribution or division of the theoretical
values in the field lasts upto 50 seconds. In case of REFUpmu units the set transmission cycle of 50 seconds
is maintained, to permit sufficient time for the RS485-Communication.
In the following you find an overview of the guide values for the optimum setting of the transmission cycle while considering the number of REFUsol Inverter and the IT-Infrastructure.

It should be noted here like wise the required gradient from the present guidelines viz. from the technical conditions of connection (TABs) of the EVUs.
The set default-value 50 s that is preferred is maintained.
Principle of Theoretical Value Transfer The principle of the theoretical value transfer can be described as follows:
Existing theoretical values are sent in the parameterized transmission cycle to all REFUsol Inverter
repeatedly.
New Theoretical values are immediately transmitted.
Exception: Already a new Theoretical value of the parameterized transmission cycle is transferred or
transmitted (Transmission block).
4.5 Telecontrol Communication
The Connection of AE ParkControl over the telecontrol report IEC 60870-5-101 is possible with AE
ParkControl Professional. In AE ParkControl Professional the telecontrol report is implemented over RS485. If
the present transfer cabinet does not contain any converter from IEC 60870-5-104 (Ethernet) to IEC 60870-5-
101, then for example an Arctic IEC104 is used, to execute this
Configuration and Parameterizing
The Telecontrol report can be configured openly upto the fixed TK-Marking. While determining the telecontrol
data 7 parametrized types are differentiated:
Theoretical values (max. 3 - predefined)
Measurement Values (max. 23 - predefined)
Individual Communication (max. 14 – openly definable)
Double Communications (max. 2 – openly definable)
Individual Command (max. 10 – openly definable)
Double Command (max. 2 – openly definable)
Diagnostics Communication (max. 2 - predefined)
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN

4.6 Sleep Mode Detection
General Information
In the parameterizing of AE ParkControl, under "General Parameters" there is the possibility, to activate the
Sleep mode detection.
This function serves firstly the suppression of error communication at night. This behavior is partly explicitly
desired by EVU and should be approved with him. An additional function of the sleep mode detection is the
targeted resetting of stored impulse specifications for power reduction and Blind feed regulation.
Note
If static theoretical values by means of impulse specifications where it remains to remain valid overnight, the
sleep mode detection is not activated. Impulse specification for graph operation thus remains obtained in
activation of the sleep mode detection over night.
Change in the Sleep Mode
In case of activated Sleep mode detection an interchange is done in the following conditions in the sleep
mode:
Condition Description
Updated feed load < 1% of the nominal power for at
least 5 minutes
This case ist relevant, if for example REFUpmu units are structured,
which in the standard case remains connected 24 h / day, where in
this will not lead to any communication errors.
Updated feed load < 1% of the nominal power and
at least 1 communication error
This case enables the quick change in the sleep mode for the case,
that REFUsol inverter is directly connected over Ethernet.
Note
Presupposition for the Sleep mode detection is the correct setting of the time of S7-1200.
Note
In case of activated Sleep mode detection, the power read and summed from the REFUsol Inverters is
considered. In case failure of switches or complete RS485-Strands this can lead to falsified results.
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
20
4.7 Datalogging
Function Datalogging
In the parameterizing of AE ParkControl in every variant under "General Parameter" the function
"Datalogging" can be activated. In case of activation this function is placed in two separate datalogs in the
format "*.csv" on the SIMATIC memory card. These datalogs enable a reporting of the power reduction and
the Blind feed specifications specified by the EVU.
Log-Files
The following two Datalogs are placed:
Power Reduction.csv (Log for Power Reduction)
Reactive Power.csv (Log for Blind feed Specifications)
Both the log- files are circulation buffered realized with 1500 Entries. While reaching the 1500 Entries, the
latest are overwritten.
Every entry of Log-File consists of the following information:

4.8 Error Reaction
In this chapter the possible errors are illustrated and explained and it is described as to how this can be
diagnosed and how AE ParkControl can react conditioned by the system.
System Conditioned Reactions in case of Errors
Basically in case of errors that appear, if one cannot further react to that, after a filter time of 1 Minute,
Default-Values for power reduction and reactive power regulation are sent. This corresponds to the
deactivation of possible types of reactive power regulations viz the specifications that appear for cosPhi-
Values viz. power reduction. This procedure is all the same, only used, if no alternative reaction is possible.
As soon as the error search is increased, the old specification is again active.
The following table contains the possible errors and the system conditioned Reactions through ParkControl:
No. Error Description Reaction
1 Communications error for individual
REFUsol Inverter
Transmitting the theoretical values to the REFUsol Inverter cannot be
guaranteed
Subsequent error in the feed management cannot be excluded
No system conditioned reaction for the functions Power reduction
and reactive power regulation
2 Communication error over Telecontrol
report
Communication over 60870-5-101 is erroneous
Specifications over Telecontrol report are not valid any more
If no type of Regulation of lower priority is parameterized (Analog)
then Default-Values are sent
3 Communication error for SENTRON
PAC4200
Measurement value registering is erroneous
Type of Regulation Qs(U), cosPhi(P), Fixed value Q not possible
any more
Control loop for cosPhi is not possible at the feed point
If no type of Regulation of low priority is parameterized (Analog,
Telecontrol) Default-Values are sent
Function power reduction remains untouched
4 Unplausible phase voltages are measured
at the feed point
Voltage measurement on the feed point deviates by +/- 30 % of the
parameterized nominal voltage
Type of Regulation Qs(U), cosPhi(P), Fixed value Q not possible
any more
Control loop for cosPhi is not possible at the feed point
If no type of regulation of low priority is parameterized (Analog,
Telecontrol) Default-Values are sent
Function power reduction remains untouched
5 Parameterized Analog to the theoretical
value specification with 4 ... 20 mA,
currently measured current input < 3,9 mA
Analog Specification for power reduction viz. reactive power
specification is erroneous
As the analog input that has the lowest priority, the Default-Values
are sent
6 There are multiple static binary
specifications, for example. 30 and 60 %
Binary specification for power reduction or Blind feed specification
unplausible
If no theoretical value source of low priority is parameterized, the
Default-Values are sent
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
22
No. Error Description Reaction
7 There are multiple specifications for the
types of the reactive power regulations, for
example Q(U) and cosPhi(P)
Dynamic selection of the type of Regulation for the run time is
erroneous
If no theoretical value source of low priority is parameterized, the
Default-Values are sent
Function power reduction remains untouched
Definite priorities per every theoretical value source can be found in chapter "Power reduction (Page 14)" and
Chapter "Reactive power control (Page 15)".
Signaling of Errors
Errors that appear are signaled over the status page and over the parameterized binary output. Thus, without
wiring or connecting the binary outputs, the parameterizing with global status communications will be
meaningful, as then over the status page it is visible, as to which error has actually appeared. Thus without
the parameterizing of the binary outputs, every error communication is visible on the status page in the
present region (see Chapter "Current Status of ParkControl (Page 125)").
Parameterized Error Communication
Possible Parameterizing for the binary output can be found in the chapter "Configuration of the digital output
(Page 83)".
Following error Communicatios can thus be parametrized:
Communication Error: Corresponds to Error description 1
Measurement Error: Collective communication from Error description 3 und 4
Error Power Reduction: Collective communication from Error description 5 and 6 (presently for the
Function power reduction)
Error Reactive Power: Collective communication from Error description 5-7 (presently for the Function
Reactive power regulation)
Error TeleControl: Corresponds to the Error description 2

5.1 Ethernet-Communication and Integration in IT-Structure
Below a few suggestions, guidelines and recommendations for the CONNECTION TO AE ParkControl with
reference to IT-Structures.
Allocation of IP-Addresses
For every variant of AE ParkControl, different IP-Addresses are required in an IP-Segment. These IP-
Addresses are freely editable for the required components of AE ParkControl. No overlapped address region must appear and no IP-Addresses must be provided double. The REFUsol inverter must be continuously
addressed.
Types of Lines for the Structure of Ethernet-Networks
The networking of Ethernet-enabled components can take place over copper cables (CAT5 / CAT6-Cable). If
larger distances are to be bridged or parallely power cables need to be laid, the LWL-Transmission is
preferred.
Use of Switches
While using switches, note, that depending on the possibility, unmanaged Switches are used. The background
is, that in a managed switch the address tables that are lodged are to be regularly refreshed with the help of
telegrams, which in case of integrated communication of AE ParkControl cannot be guaranteed in this cycle. The consequence is, that this could lead increased time delays in the connecting structure for REFUsol
Inverter, which could lead to errors due to exceeding time.
While using managed IT-Switches we recommend for the ports relevant for AE ParkControl the managed
mode to be disconnected or switched off as per the possibility or the transmission cycle to be reduced to the
Minimum possible (see Chapter "Local Ethernet-Communication (Page 16)").
Port Release for the Remote Access on the PV-Systems
For the remote access on the PV-Systems with the available AE ParkControl a connection to the internet must
take place and diverse port releases for the access must be carried out from outside. The following releases
are recommended:
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
25
Port 80 on all REFUsol Inverter connected over Ethernet ⇒ Connection an Web Portal
Port 21062 / 21063 on all diagnostics tools connected over Ethernet REFUsol Inverter ⇒ Access over
REFUsol
Port 443 on the AE ParkControl SPS ⇒ Access over HTML-Pages over HTTPS
Port 110 (S7-Report) on AE ParkControl ⇒ Diagnostics possibilities
Port 110 (S7-Report) on Sentron PAC4200 ⇒ Access over Sentron Power Config-Tool
The portal transmission enables the remote access on all the components participating in AE ParkControl by the use of REFUsol Service, under the presumption, that the system operator has provided the permission for
remote access.
Note
In case of remote access a registered Gateway-Address (in standard case, the local IP-Address of the
Routers) in required in all components located in the Ethernet-Network.
Connection to the Internet
For connection to the internet over UMTS, for example, the Lucom UR 5v.2 Basic UMTS Router can be used.
The further transmission of the yield data of the individual REFUsol Inverter is to be completely considered
isolated from the AE ParkControl variant. The present router should be configured in such a way, that a
dispatch of the data to the Web portal (IP-Address: 195.27.237.106) is port 80.
5.2 Data for IBS-Preparation
For simplifying the commissioning of AE ParkControl, there is data available with the help of which all the
required parameters are defined an can be approved with the EVU in the prefield.
The data that is filled in enables a simplified pre check of the parameterizing with the help of the REFUsol
Support.

6.2 Suggestions and Guidelines for Routing
6.2.1 Routing Suggestions AE ParkControl – Power Supply
In the following paragraphs the routing suggestions for AE ParkControl have been displayed. More
information over the structure guidelines and additional possibilities of connection can be derived from the
operation instructions of the present S7-1200.
6.2.2 Connecting the S7-1200
Connecting the S7-1200 (as an Example of CPU1214C)
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
33
(A) Power Suply: The S7 is to be provided with a voltage of AC 230 V / 50 Hz. We recommend, the S7-
1200 separately to secure over feed protection switch.
(B) Digital Input: The digital input is used as a rule for the potential free contact (for example, Ripple control
receiver, Communication contact of the transfer station etc.) is used. Thus a "Control voltage" DC+ is
connected over this contact on the input of the S7-1200. This "Control voltage" DC+ can also be used
from the generator supply DC 24 V of S7-1200.
① 24-V-DC-Generator voltage; to achieve additional stability, please connect "M" to the Mass (Earth),
even if you do not use any generator voltage.
② In the current drawing inputs "-" to "M" is connected (shown). In case of current supplying inputs "+"
to"M" is connected
(C) Analog Input: Over both the clamping inputs a theoretical specification can result for the power
reduction and Blind feed. Both the analog input of the S7-1200 CPU are placed on the works side for
the measurement of the voltage (0..10V).
To use the input also as "power input", you must connect for every 500 Ohm-resistance between the
clamps "0" and "2M" (viz. "1" and "2M").
If both the analog inputs are used, you should note, that the reference mass of both the analog
channels is the same.
(D) Digital Output: The digital output can be used for example, for error communication. Additionally in case
of AE ParkControl Professional it serves as an output for the individual command and double
command, which sends the EVU to the system by way of telecontrol report. A connected voltage L(+) is
connects to the common contact 1L (2L) of the relay output, to the corresponding outputs
0/.1/.2/…connect this potential then to a user.
(E) Analog Output for the transfer of the active power to the EVU: Building of the SB 1232 AQ (see Chapter
"Connect the SB 1232 AQ (Page 34)").
Serial Interface for the transfer of the Telecontrol report to the EVU: Building of CB 1241 (see Chapter
"Connect the CB 1241 RS485 (Page 35)").
(F) Communication: The Communication of AE ParkControl with the REFUsol inverter takes place
exclusively over Ethernet. For this purpose please use the Ethernet interface of S7-1200.
(Ethernet interface Profinet/LAN; depending on the CPU-Version upto 2 interfaces, both RJ45-
Connections can be used)

The required Operation steps for assembly, Routing and Parameterizing of the SENTRON PAC4200 are
described in the chapter "Parameterizing of SENTRON PAC4200".
7.3 Parameterizing of the SENTRON PAC4200
7.3.1 Function
The SENTRON PAC4200 is used for the Measurement of Voltage (and Current) at Feed point of the PV-
System. The Measurement data is required, to implement the reactive power specification of the present EVU
at the feed point.
There are different Requirements:
Only Voltage measurement→ Q(U) Control
Voltage- and Current measurement → Q(U)- / cosPhi(P)-Control or Reactive power fixed value Q
Communication
The Transfer of the Measurement data over the S7-1200 takes over the PROFINET-Telegram. For the
Communication a complete IP-Configuration is required with IP, Sub network and Gateway. The Gateway in
this case, if available, is the Router (UMTS, GPRS, DSL, …).
The Parameterizing of this IP-Settings can take place over SENTRON PowerConfig or over the integrated
Display of the PAC4200.
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN

Network connection to be configured
For the Finding of connected equipment you must configure an existing Network connection.
The SENTRON PAC is delivered without IP-Address, that means one can be reached over his MAC Address
from every Sub network. Therefore, it is important, that you already adapt the presently the local LAN-Settings
of the Network connection, in such a way that the desired SENTRON PAC IP-Address lies in the same Sub
network.
1. Open the Dialog "Characteristics of the Network connection"

7.4 Parameterization of AE ParkControl
7.4.1 Basic Suggestions & required Software
General
The Parameterization takes place through user define Web pages. The Access to the integrated SIMATIC
Web server takes place exclusively over the HTTPS-Protocol.
As the integrated SIMATIC Web server in contrast to the parallel running control program reveals a
Subordinated priority, of then during call of the user defined web pages there is a longer Waiting time.
The scope of the Parameterization and with it the number and Complexity of the individual pages differs or
varies corresponding to the selected variant of AE ParkControl.
Pre Conditions
For the Parameterization of AE ParkControl the following is required:
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
55
A Computer with Ethernet-Interface.
A Standard-Browser (Firefox or Internet Explorer).
The released Versions of the Browser are mentioned in Chapter "System Requirements (Page 37)"
First Parameterizing
We recommend, the first parameterizing of AE ParkControl be carried out locally over S7-1200 without
connection to the Ethernet-Network.
7.4.2 Access on the SIMATC Web server
For reaching the Web server you must correspondingly parametrize the local Network connection. In relation
to the operation system the screens for Parameterization differentiates the LAN-Connection. The objective is,
to allocate the system an IP-Address and Subnetwork screen, in which the S7-1200 is also found.
IP-Address in the Supply Position
With an SD-Card inserted the S7-1200, it is reachable under the following IP-Address:
https://192.168.0.2/awp/start.html
Allocation of the IP-Address
For the first access over the Parameterized pages the system requires an IP-Address in the same Sub
network. Give the system an IP-Address, which lies possibly at the End of the accessible Addresses, so that
there is no double Address allocation.
Note
Equipping an existing Parkregulation
The Equipping of an existing Parkregulation with a new version is possible through SD-Card exchange.
Note, that the access to the CPU under specific conditions must take place not under the standard-IP-
Address, instead under the already configured IP-Address.
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
56
IP-Address allocation
1. Call for the Characteristics of the Network-Conditions.
Subsequently the following Dialog opens.
2. Open the Characteristics of Internet Protocol (TCP / IP).
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
57
3. Allocate for the system an IP-Address and enter the corresponding Subnetwork
screen.

STOP / RUN
- Yellow Continuous light shows the Operation condition STOP
- Green Continuous light shows the Operation condition RUN
- Blink (changing green and yellow) shows, that the CPU is in the operation position STARTUP
ERROR
- Flashing Red light shows an error, For example an internal error in the CPU, an error of the Memory Card or a Configuration error (not reconciliable module)
- Red continuous light shows Hardware defects
MAINT
- If you insert a Memory Card, the LED MAINT (Maintenance) blinks. The CPU then changes into the Operation position STOP. After the CPU has gone into the Operation position STOP, carry out the following Function, to start the Evaluation of the Memory Card: Switch off the CPU and switch on again.
S7-Condition for Parameterizing of the ParkControl
To be able to start the parameterizing of the ParkControl over the Web server, the LEDs must illuminate in the
following way:
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
59
STOP / RUN: Green continuous light

Key Description
To the next page
One page back
The tab "SAVE" is available for saving the changes and is present on all
configuration pages. It brings about the transfer of the configuration from the web
server in the storage device of S7-1200. While activating the command "SAVE"
first an enquiry dialog is blended in, which you must confirm with OK.
Subsequently a service window is blended in, which blends out after the fresh
loading of the web page.
Most of the changes require an initialization run of S7-1200. With "EXECUTE"
you activate this initialization run. Note that first the changed configuration is to
be taken over into the storage device S7-1200 with "SAVE", before you carry out
the initialization run. Before the implementation of "EXECUTE" an enquiry dialog
is blended in, which you must confirm with OK.
Subsequently a service window is blended in, which blends out after the fresh
loading of the web page.
Note
Execution of Command "SAVE" and "EXECUTE"
It is absolutely necessary both Commands to be executed one after the other (under the Consideration of
Waiting time).
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
65
Note
Waiting time in Command "SAVE" and "EXECUTE" is to be noted
Depending on the CPU-type and the Complexity of the Configuration page the execution of the command
"SAVE" and "EXECUTE" should last upto one Minute.
After the confirmation of the tab the HTML-page is downloaded again.
Please wait till the corresponding wait window is blended out.
Individual Changes of the Configuration After the Configuration was completely run, in future, even individual changes are also possible.
Note
Even in case of subsequent smaller changes on a configuration page, the handling is carried out with the
commandos "SAVE" and "EXECUTE".
7.4.8 Plausibility Check
The Configuration requires different inputs through the user depending on the ParkControl-Variant. Thus a
large part is checked on plausibility.
The plausibility check is activated on every page always through the confirmation of the "SAVE"-Command.
A comprehensive check takes place, which can take some time. As per the check the values are taken over in
the storage device of the S7-1200.
Note
Please note that in the parameterization the functional overview of the individual types of Parkregulations (see
chapter "Technical Characteristics (Page Error! Text marks not defined)"), as the configuration, the limit
values and the validity of inputs can vary.

1Note: In case of application the corresponding types of regulation in the reactive power configuration (reactivepower.html)
is parameterized with "Activated by Input" (see chapter 87)").Configuration of Reactive power graphs.
The inputs that are available can be parameterized in all combinations of the functions. There are however the
following limitations:
Selection of the individual type of regulation only once for an input
Selection of the individual type of regulation is either static or with impulse evaluation
Selection of the Telecontrol report Double communication 1 only in DI b.2 and b.3
Selection of the Telecontrol report Double communication 1 only in DI b.4 and b.5
All other functions are optionally combinable
The Combination from Power Reduction or Reactive Power Specification with and without impulse evaluation
is possible, thereby it must be noted that the static inputs that appear have a higher priority.
The Plausibility of the Parameterization is comprehensively checked over Java script, where by the transfer of
error parameterization is suppressed.
For the transfer of the theoretical values during the operation the following rules are valid:
Inputs that statically appear is taken up after 1 second Filter time
Registered impulse is now taken up, if no static input appears
Impulses are simultaneously deleted, so that always the last registered impulse is taken up
If more than one static input appears, then after a waiting time of a minute the parameterized Default-
Value is taken up.

The detailed description is located in the chapter "Power Reduction (Page 14)" and in chapter "Reactive
Power Regulation (Page 15)". There even the collective priorities and reactions on incidents are described.
Note
IOA-Addresses for the telecontrol report 60870-5-101 must be clear over the complete parameterization. This
plausibility check is not an ingredient of the parameterization.
Configuration of the analog Inputs in AE ParkControl Classic to Professional
In the AE ParkControl Variants Classic to Professional, additionally possible digital specifications as well as
analog specifications over both the analog inputs AI0 and AI1 of S7-1200 are configured.

Configuration of the Reactive power graphs
Availability: AE ParkControl Advanced and Professional
On this configuration page graphs for the die reactive power control can be configured.
Each of this starting of regulation requires a measurement value registering on the feed point. Thereby, for the
Q(U)-Graph at least a voltage measurement is necessary. For both the other types of regulations because of
the required power and the high dynamics a Voltage - and Current measurement is necessary.
Note
In agreement with the present EVU instead of a registration of measurement value in the
medium voltage measurement is carried out even in the low voltage. Provide the support
points in the parameterization of nominal voltage and the graphs with always the
corresponding values on the measurement point. A conversion in the medium voltage is not
needed.
This configuration page is divided into 4 sections:
General regulation parameter for the reactive power specification

Configuration of Q(U) Graph
The Q(U) graph enables the reactive power control on the feed point depending on the measured phase
voltage at the feed point. It serves for the stabilization of the network voltage and is most frequently required.
Operation for the realization of the Q(U)-graph is the registering of the measurement value of the phase
voltage on the feed point.

Types of the Graph Activation
The following types of the Graph activation:
Activated:
Only the Q(U) control is activated and used, if no specification of higher priority appears. No cosPhi(P)
graph or fixed value Q control can be applied.
Activated by Input:
The type of regulation can be activated over the parameterized digital inputs and this a change of the type
regulation for the duration is possible. The graph is used if it was activated over the corresponding digital
input and no specification of higher priority appears.
Activated if Telecontrol cosPhi = 1:
The type of control is activated if on the telecontrol report a cosPhi-specification of 1 was received and no
specification of higher priority appears.
Note
The activation of graph if on the telecontrol report cosPhi=1 is sent, is possible only with AE
ParkControl Professional.
Configuration of the Q(U) Graph over support points
The Q(U) graph is defined with the help of support points. Support points following one another are connected
over a straight line and thus provide or result in a function over the complete voltage region. In case of lower
voltage less that which is defined at the first support point a constant cosPhi-value is realized which on the
first activated support point. In voltage that is defined higher than at the last support point, a constant cosPhi-
value is realised which was defined at the last activated support point. Accordingly the value pairs of function,
at which the increase of the function changes (compare graph example). The configuration of Q(U) Graph is
coupled on the following conditions:

Only the cosPhi(P)-Regulation is activated and used, if no specifications of higher priority. No Q(U)-
Graphs or fixed value Q Regulation is used.
Activated by Input:
The type of regulation can be activated over parametrized digital inputs and thus a change of the type of

no specifications of higher priority appears.
Activated if Telecontrol cosPhi=1:
The type of regulation is activated is received over telecontrol report cosPhi-Specification of 1 and no
specifications of higher priority appears.
Note
The activation of the graph if sent over telecontrol report cosPhi=1, is only possible with AE
ParkControl professional.
Configuration of cosPhi(P) Graph over Supporting point
The cosPhi(P) Graph is defined with the help of the supporting point. The supporting points following each
other is connected over a straight line and thus a function over the complete power region results. In case
lower power, a constant the first supporting point that is defined is the constant realized on the first activated
supporting point. In case of higher power as the last activated support point is defined a constant cosPhi-
Value is realized which was defined on the last activated support point. Support points are thus value pairs of
the function, on which the increase of the function changes (compare Graph example).
The Configuration of cosPhi(P) Graph is coupled on the following conditions:
Number of support points minimum 2 and maximum 4
Support points must be activated in an increasing order without gaps

In case of parameterizing attention should be paid to the fact, that the power which is fed, has a positive
marking and the power which is consumed has a negative marking.
The background is, that the PV-System is considered in the parameterizing as a generator. The EVU sees the
PV-System frequently as the user, whereby the symbol is precisely exchanged.

BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
126
9.1 Status of the Communication and the Measurement value registering
This section Serves the overview of the Current system status in Reference to the Communication. Upto 128 individual statuses per REFUsol Inverter, the Status of the connected Measurement value registering with the
SENTRON PAC, as well as the Communication status over the Telecontrol report 60870-5-101 is
represented.
Figure 9-2 Status of the Communication and the Measurement value registering
In the Table form, for every REFUsol Inverter it is represented, whether the Communication runs error free or
whether problems have appeared. Apart from that it is clear which IP-Addresses were configured and how
these are distributed on 8 available connection resources. The Communication status is clear on the basis of
the background color of the present square.
The color legend is represented on the page and is illustrated in the following table:
Table 9-1 Color legend for Status of Communication and Measurement value registering

Green Communication over Telecontrol report error free
Red Communication over Telecontrol report disturbedd
In activated Sleep mode detection of the Inverter even this information is visible at place.
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
127
9.2 Status of the digital and analog Input- and Output
This section serves for the representation of the connected periphery. The digital as well as analog inputs and
the digital outputs are represented.
Figure 9-3 Status of the digital and analog Input and Output
The current signal status at the available digital inputs and outputs are represented. In the AE ParkControl
variants classic to professional corresponds to the 14 digital inputs and 10 digital output. It is visible over tool
tips in the digital inputs and outputs, with which function this input was configured, thus for example, with
power reduction 30 %.
Figure 9-4 Example status with Tooltips
The color legend for the digital inputs is represented in the following table.
Digital Inputs
Green Digital Input remains
Red Digital Input does not remain
Digital Output
Green Digital Output is placed
Red Digital Output is not placed
Apart from that the signal at the analog inputs with correspondingly configured standardized is represented, all
the same only if they were parametrized.
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
128
9.3 Status of the current Feed load
In this section all information on the topic current feed is represented.
Figure 9-5 Status of the current Feed load
Following information is visible:
Activation similar to the Output of the current Feed load
Current Feed load in KW
Current Feed load in reference to the Nominal load in %
At this place with one blink it is visible, as to how much power the PV-System currently delivers. The value of
the feed load is either determined over the SENTRON PAC, if a power measurement is present, or however, directly lead and summarized from the REFUsol Inverters. The update cycle of the feed load in the second
case, is dependent on the transmission cycle of the new specification, as these are directly coupled with each
other.
9.4 Status of the Function Power reduction
This section serves for the overview for the topic power reduction. It contains the following information:
Activation status of the Function Power reduction
Current Specification in % (value or "DEFAULT")
Momentary Transmission value in %
Global Status of the Function Power reduction
Source of the Specification value
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
129
Figure 9-6 Status of the Function Power reduction
If from the theoretical value sources an active specification is provided, the parametrized default-value for the
power reduction is sent. In case of the errors that appear this value is sent. The specification value is visible in
the status window under the point "Current Specification in %", in which then "DEFAULT" is placed instead of
a specification value.
The transmission value can differentiate itself from the specification value, if corresponding ramp up and ram
down is parametrized. First as per a specific number of transmission cycles then the specification value is
sent.
Sources for the Power reduction specification
For possible power reduction there exist 3 sources, which are available as per AE ParkControl variant:
Digital Specification
Analog Specification (only in AE ParkControl Classic to Professional)
Telecontrol report (only in AE ParkControl Professional)
Signalizing of disturbances
A Disturbance of the Power reduction is signaled over the global Status. Cause for a disturbance can be:
Unplausible Specification, for example, more than 2 digital Inputs appearing or Analog input < 3,9 mA in
the selection 4…20 mA
After 5 Transmission cycles the current Feed load on the Feed point > Specification value
Color legends for the Status of Power reduction
The Color legend for the Status of Power reduction can be derived from the following table.
Function Power reduction
Green Function Power reduction error free
Red Function Power reduction disturbed
Theoretical Value Sources
Green Theoretical value source active
Grey Theoretical value source inactive
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
130
9.5 Status of the Function Telecontrol
This Section serves for the overview for the subject Telecontrol. It contains the following information:
Activation status of the Function Telecontrol
Current Specification cosPhi (Value or "DEFAULT")
Momentary Transmission value cosPhi
Global Status of the Function Telecontrol
Source of the Specification values
Lower deviation of Minimum feed load for Digital/Analog Specification cosPhi
Lower deviation of Minimum feed load for Q(U) Graph
Lower deviation Minimum feed load for cosPhi(P) Graph
Lower deviation Minimum feed load for Fixed value Q Type of Regulation
Lower deviation Minimum feed load for Specification over Telecontrol report
Figure 9-7 Status of the Function Telecontrol including Minimum feed load
If from the theoretical value sources an active specification ensues, then the parametrized Default-Value for
the cosPhi is sent. Even in case of errors that appear this value is sent. In the status window under the point
"Current Specification cosPhi" is visible, in which then "DEFAULT" is represented instead of a specification
value.
BA_AE ParkControl_V01.3_EN
131
The Transmission value can differentiate itself from the specification value, if corresponding to the cosPhi a
post regulation is done on the feed point. This requires a voltage- and Current measurement over the
SENTRON PAC. With the help of the regulation the transmission value is changed with every transmission
cycle over a system offset, to reach the Specification value on the feed point.
A parametrized type of Regulation is used only if the parametrized Minimum feed load of the present type of
regulation is present. It is visible in the lower section of the Status of telecontrol.
Sources for Reactive power specification
For possible Reactive power specification there exist 6 Sources, which are available depending on the AE
ParkControl variant:
Digital Specification
Analog Specification (only in AE ParkControl Classic to Professional)
Q(U) Graph (only in AE ParkControl Advanced and Professional)
cosPhi(P) Graph (Only in AE ParkControl Advanced and Professional)
Fixed value Q Regulation (only in AE ParkControl Advanced and Professional)
Telecontrol report (only in AE ParkControl Professional)
Signalizing of Disturbances
A Disturbance of the Telecontrol is signaled over the global Status. Cause for a disturbance can be:
Unplausible specification, for example more than 2 type of Regulations with the same Priority active or
Analog input < 3,9mA in the selection 4.20 mA
Current cosPhi-Value on the feed point differentiates itself as per the 5 Transmission cycles by more than
±0,01 of the cosPhi-Specification value
Color Legend for the Status of the Telecontrol
The color legend for the Status of the Telecontrol can be derived from the following tables.
Function Telecontrol
Green Function Telecontrol error free
Red Function Telecontrol disturbed
Theoretical value sources
Green Theoretical value source active
Grey Theoretical value source inactive
Type of regulation / Minimum feed load
Green Type of Regulation parametrized and sufficient feed load available
Red Type of Regulation parametrized but not sufficient feed load
Grey Type of Regulation not parametrized
