Hard string plan East-West

[Miro]

Dear support,

I need to clarify how to make strings automatically as I want to. When I create East-West oriented panels then PVSOL creates string following: 1. String upstairs east, 2. String downstairs west, 3.String upstairs east behind 1.String or somewhere else randomize. This has been mixed illogically and without creativity which user wants. I want to have: 1.MPPT East, 2. MPPT West - those all from up to down started from one point like this:

 

 

 

 

I am just want to change strings simplier than PVSOL offers.

I know that there is setting in parameters of strings: direction simple or meander, start in left corner or right corner but practically is very hard to set it and finally it doesn't work user friendly.

Thank you!

Dear Miro,

Thank you for your inquiry.

We agree with you that the automatic arrangement of strings is not always useful. In your case, strings 1, 3 and 5 are arranged correctly, but strings 2, 4 and 6 are arranged incorrectly.

Select the West module area and click on the ‘Edit Module Allocations’ button:

Select the 19 modules for string 2 and assign them (right-click) to MPPT 2. Repeat the step for strings 4 and 6:

Then select "Horizontal", "Top left" and "Meander":

The cable plan should now be correct:
