BLUE’LOG XM / XC

DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTIONS Data loggers of the blue’Log X series record all relevant system data, provide various interfaces
and functionality for power plant control and thus enable grid-compliant feed-in for PV systems.
For the monitoring portal VCOM (Virtual Control Room), the blue’Log X series serves as the
heart of on-site monitoring.

The blue’Log X series can get ordered with the range of functions of X-Monitoring (blue’Log XM)
or X-Control (blue’Log XC).

SOFTWARE FEATURES
X-MONITORING X-CONTROL
1)
Monitoring max. 100 devices max. 30 devices1)
(250 trackers2))
Power Control (Active and
No (Slave function3)) Yes
Reactive Power Control)

1)
number of devices
Devices affects all except status via multi / digital inputs

2)
number of trackers
If the tracker mode got activated on the blue’Log, up to 250 devices can be queried instead of
100. Except for the device types tracker, sensor (max. 10) and Status DI internal, no further
devices can be configured.

3)
Slave function
For systems with Power Control and more than one data logger, the meteocontrol Master /
Slave functionality is used. The blue’Log XM can get configured as a slave and thus transmits
the Power Control setpoints to the connected inverters.
