Cost-effective Solutions
RECtrack 1 is the optimal kit if you need a cost effective solution for monitoring and
management of a PV-system. With RECtrack 1 you get all the necessary components
and functions to monitor energy production and demand at a fraction of the cost of a
traditional supervision system.
The RECtrack kit comes with one energy meter and one Internet Gateway / Data
Logger. More meters can be purchased separately and connected via the Modbus
Network. The Internet Gateway collects data and uploads them regularly, over the
Internet, to the Energy Recommerce Information Server. Users, log in to their ac-

Simplified System Design
The monitoring kit is developed with energy monitoring in mind and therefore the
system design is very straightforward. Supporting application examples and CAD
schematics helps reduce engineering cost.
Easy to Install and Manage
Designed to facilitate quick installation. Remote configuration capabilities minimize
truck rolls. A fully integrated and tested monitoring kit that minimizes errors.
Protocols fully support the http standard and our solution makes it easy to install the
monitoring system in secure IT networks.
Data Security and Validation
The Energy Recommerce Internet Gateway offers a very reliable solution. Encryption
protects data interaction with the server. Time-stamps and CRC checksums secures
data log-files and prevents tampering. Energy Meters are revenue grade and
approved by the California Energy Commission as eligible for performance based
incentives (PBI). A trusted solution for Power Purchase Agreements and REC sales.
Future Proof Solutions
Use of standard open solutions gives the RECtrack monitoring system the flexibility to
grow with the users evolving needs and facilitates integration with other systems.
