Product FAQ

ECapi

ECapi questions

Can ECapi send commands, or only read data?

Both. ECpvX accepts active and reactive power commands for PV and BESS via ECapi, ECpv2 and ECpvH accept PV commands, and ECgrid accepts frequency service schedules and aFRR/mFRR commands.

The API setting must be enabled in the controller before it accepts commands.

Can an outside optimizer service control my site?

Yes. An online optimizer service provider can control the PV, and the BESS on ECpvX, via ECapi, with no additional hardware on site.

Can I get live data, not just logged data?

Yes. Enable the live data stream on the controller and read it via ECapi. On ECpvX it also speeds up the refresh rate of the Live page in ECcloud.

Which data fields are available?

They are described in each controller's MySQL table, available in the downloads on the controller's product page.

Does ECapi need ECcloud?

Yes. ECapi reads the data controllers push to the ENcombi database, which requires the ECcloud extra or time left on the free trial.
