A smart data logger is a small hardware device that is usually connected to a main device (such as inverter, combiner box, battery) through an interface such as USB, Aeronautical head or DB9 to expand its functions or provide additional services. Unlike traditional plug-in devices, smart data logger has certain data transmission, storage space and network connection functions, and can run applications independently or process data through the cloud.
Main functions of smart data logger
1. Data transmission and synchronization:
– Smart data logger can serve as a bridge between different devices to achieve fast data transmission and synchronization. For example, through smart data logger, data can quickly be transferred to the cloud.
2. Remote control and management:
– Combined with IoTs technology, users can remotely control and monitor other devices through smart data logger. For example, through smart data logger, users can remotely control inverter and battery at home, etc.
3. Security encryption and authentication:
– Smart data logger can also be used as security encryption devices to provide additional authentication functions. For example, two-factor authentication can be performed through smart data logger to improve the security of accounts and devices.
As a small, portable and powerful device, smart data logger are gradually becoming a key tool for connecting different hardware, realizing data transmission and function expansion. In the fields of solar energy, smart data logger has shown broad application prospects.
