Description 1

Solar library can be used to control solar panels movement as per Sun position with the ABB drives using different industrial protocols. Function blocks calculate the sun position according to longitude, latitude and time. This library contains Axis function blocks for primary and secondary axis. It uses position control block for tracking Sun position accurately. User can use different Encoder blocks to determine solar panel position. It also provides provision for homing, calibration and continuous tracking.

For detailed description for the function blocks please refer to AB online help chapter PLC Automation with V2 CPUs > Libraries and solutions > Solar library
