Signature Solar lists this revision specifically for \u003cstrong\u003eBDM300 and BDM600 microinverters fitted with the Wieland connector\u003c\/strong\u003e. It reads the array over the existing AC wiring and shows per-inverter data on a local LCD touch screen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy It Matters\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA microinverter array without a gateway is a system you only learn about from the utility bill. The BDG-256 reports each inverter individually, so a single underperforming module shows up as a named unit rather than as a vague shortfall across the whole array. It also serves as the commissioning interface: inverter configuration, dual-voltage and dual-frequency setup, and the local MICROVIEWER view all run from the same screen without an internet connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAC Input:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100-240 Vac, 50\/60 Hz, 60 mA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Consumption:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.5 W maximum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicroinverter Communication:\u003c\/strong\u003e Power Line Communication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicroinverters Monitored:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 255\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eData Interface:\u003c\/strong\u003e USB 2.0, auto-sensing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWi-Fi:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supported (accessory required)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisplay:\u003c\/strong\u003e LCD touch screen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e -40°C to +55°C (-40°F to 131°F)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCooling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural convection, no fans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnclosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indoor, NEMA 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.69 x 4.33 x 1.46 in (170 x 110 x 37 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.29 oz (150 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eListings And Ratings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUL 60950-1 2nd edition · CSA C22.2 2nd edition · FCC Part 15 Class B · AS\/NZS · Eligible performance meter on the California CEC list\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting It To Your System\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNEP trunk components are keyed to connector generation, and this listing is the revision the supplier pairs with Wieland-connector BDM300 and BDM600 microinverters.
