You might also wish to investigate the Bogart Engineering
PentaMetric. It's not for everyone - too customizable for the
average user (and even the manual cautions about this). But three
shunt-based inputs, all DC-based. It outputs to proprietary software
that can be accessed remotely, I think. <br>
<br>
I have only installed one in a system, and the homeowner used the
data available on site, so I have no experience with remote access.
But you can decide for yourself if it will meet your needs at

<div>Dan,</div>
<div> The WattMetrics system I mentioned earlier is set up to
work with the output of the Mate in an Outback system. Not
sure how it works with other inverters. On the live sites,
Herick & Magic Mountain are Outback remote transmitter
sites and the Solarfest Office is a grid tied Outback.and you
will see in the recent data that there have been Grid Outages
included.</div>

addition to the excellent information being posted here on
monitoring grid-tied systems, I would be curious to know
what products Wrenches have used and would recommend (or
not) -- and why -- for web-based monitoring of systems that
include battery banks, whether grid-tied islanding or
off-grid. <font size="2">We are still working on getting
