 ===== 1. When to use =====
-Use this Assistant in Off-grid systems that have AC-Coupled solar power: a grid-tie PV inverter connected to the AC out of a Multi or Quattro inverter/charger.

-Also use this Assistant for systems connected to the grid, that for a particular reason are not setup as ESS and its Assistant.
+Compatible with Multis, Quattros as well as Phoenix Inverters that have a VE.Bus connection.
-Usually all mains-connected systems do need the ESS Assistant, and in that case do not also install the PV Inverter Assistant.

 ===== 2. Summary of functionality =====
 When the system is in inverter mode, this Assistant controls the output power of the grid-tie inverter by changing the AC output frequency of the system. A mechanism commonly refered to as Frequency Shifting. It does so to regulate the charge process: limiting the output power of the Grid-tie inverter to proper manage the charge and also prevent overcharge of the batteries.

 The Assistant will use the AC-output frequency to keep both the charge current and the charge voltage within limits.
-To prevent overshoots because of varying solar irradiance and/or load fluctuations, it will limit the charge current already before battery voltage has rised up to the absorption voltage. It will derate the charge current from 100% at 13.5 / 27 / 54V to 10% at 14.4 / 28.8 / 57.6V. These thresholds are **not** related to the configured absorption voltage.

 Alternatively, power cycle the system with the rocker switch on the front panel on the inverter/charger.
