TAP WiFi gateway Tigo
Manufacturer: Tigo Energy
INDEX: 158-00000-02
Tigo communication gateway provides reliable wireless communication at 2.4 GHz with each Tigo optimizer installed under the PV module. To monitor the entire system, the installation of a Tigo gateway is required. To extend system coverage, additional gateways should be installed and connected via the RS485 interface.
RS485 connection between gateways and Cloud Connect is recommended using a 2-pair twisted cable with UV-resistant insulation. The Tigo gateway should be installed in the middle of the PV array – under the module or on the mounting structure.
Each gateway can communicate with up to 300 optimizers, maintaining a maximum distance of 10 m between each device. The system is designed so that the signal is transmitted from optimizer to optimizer. If the distance exceeds 10 m, an additional Tigo gateway should be installed.
Each gateway in the PV installation connects to the CCA module. It is possible to connect up to 7 Tigo gateways and a total of up to 900 optimizers. Each CCA module and gateway are connected via RS485 twisted pair cable.
