Solarfox® Solar Display &
KACO new energy Solar Monitoring
Solar display for KACO new energy solar monitoring
The KACO new energy web portal enables owners of photovoltaic systems to monitor their energy generation and system status. Solarfox displays can call up and visualise the data from the KACO new energy portal.
For the use of a Solarfox® display to visualise the energy data, only an Internet connection is required on site. The system is therefore compatible with any photovoltaic system using KACO new energy inverters, the only requirement being an Internet connection via LAN or WLAN. This has the advantage that you do not need any direct cabling between the KACO new energy Monitoring and the Solarfox display. This gives you maximum flexibility to select any location for the solar display installation.

Communication between KACO new energy and Solarfox display
- The photovoltaic system generates direct current.
- The KACO new energy inverter converts solar energy into alternating current.
- The yielded information is transferred directly from the KACO new energy inverters to the KACO new energy monitoring portal on the Internet.
- After a Solarfox online account has been created, the Solarfox® web server accesses the data in the KACO new energy Monitoring Portal and generates a slideshow that you can configure individually via web browser.
- The Solarfox® display accesses the data of the Solarfox web server via the Internet and displays the data in a slideshow as a visually appealing way. To do this, the display only needs to retrieve data via the Internet through port 80.
KACO new energy solar monitoring and combination with other systems
The Solarfox system is not only compatible with KACO new energy, but also with numerous other solar monitoring systems and can visualise several systems from different manufacturers.
