Can WattPlot access the historical data stored in my OutBack device (e.g. 128-day data)?
While it’s true that OutBack Power Technologies does not provide the data via the Mate display controller interface at this time, the greenMonitor Renewable Energy Monitor software from greenHouse Computers does collect this data, as it is produced, and make it available to you through a variety of interfaces.
At greenHouse Computers we want you to get the most out of your renewable energy system, and we put in the extra effort so that you are able to see as much of the same data through our software as you’re able to see standing at the Mate display controller.
No, unfortunately OutBack does not make this information accessible by external software. The FLEXnet DC monitor does have a few cumulative values and the MX-60 has a Daily kWH tally that are available to WattPlot, and it does track this data, however the daily history logs going back 128 days are only accesible through the device or the MATE.
