Abstract
A method for automatically associating a module to a corresponding inverter of a plurality of inverters which are adapted to generate measurements related to their operation, comprising: installing the module for generating measurements related to the operation of a corresponding inverter of the plurality of inverters; comparing, by processing means, the measurements generated by the module to the measurements generated by the plurality of inverters; and basing on the comparison, determining by the processing means which of the plurality of inverters is the corresponding inverter of the module.

A method for automatically associating a module to a corresponding inverter of a plurality of inverters which are adapted to generate measurements related to their operation, the method comprises:
- a) installing the module for generating measurements related to the operation of a corresponding inverter of said plurality of inverters;
- b) comparing, by processing means, the measurements generated by the module to the measurements generated by the plurality of inverters;
- and
- c) basing on the comparison, determining by the processing means which of the plurality of inverters is said corresponding inverter of the module.
A module comprising a microprocessor and configured to perform the following operations with the microprocessor:
- generate measurements related to the operation of a first inverter of a plurality of inverters;
- measurements related to operations of the plurality of inverters generable by the plurality of inverters;
- compare the measurements of the module with the sniffed measurements;
- and
- based on the comparison determine which of the plurality of inverters is said first inverter.
A power generation system comprising at least:
- a plurality of inverters which are adapted to generate measurements related to their operations;
- at least one module comprising a microprocessor and configured to perform the following operations with the microprocessor:
- generate measurements related to the operation of a first inverter of the plurality of inverters;
- compare said measurements generable by the module to said measurements generable by the plurality of inverters;
- based on the comparison, determine which of the plurality of inverters is said first inverter of the module.
