I have just got online with GT-View to monitor my PV system. I have been using solar for over 20 yrs and finally got online.
My web page is under major reconstruction.. but the GT-View is up and running.
I'm using a laptop with a wireless link to my desktop system. Since I don't have the XP remote desktop on my computer, I'm using a "FREE" program called VNC. It is working very good and the price can't be beat ;-)
Let me know what you think... and thanks for reading this!

Weird.
My system is only rated .5 KW higher than yours, yet is reading

your http://energy-alternatives.com/GTview/G ... n_Save.png
mine http://www.mike-burgess.org/images/GT_Screen_Save.png

nearly the same, while my panels are off axis (west facing at 8:30 AM) and yours are south facing (if I'm understanding your layout ? )

(never mind, must have just been a cloud, I see yours just jumped WAY up)

congrats !

PS, but the efficiency rateing puzzles me, as to why 2 inverters would be 5 points different, woudl this be caused by intermittent cloud cover, and MPPT always hunting?

Would temperature alone explain this ?
